Interviewer instructions

Though a person may be attending more than two courses, information for items 6 to 29 are to be collected
only for two courses. Necessary entries have already been made in the schedule for this purpose. The
entries against the column corresponding to course no. 1 should be for 'basic course'.

When the number of courses a particular member is undertaking is more than one, the basic course should be
determined using the following rules -

· If an individual is pursuing more than one course then the course, which is in the highest level, should be
considered as the basic course.

·If all the courses simultaneously pursued currently are in the same level then the course of the general
education should be the basic course

·In absence of any general education, the course, which involves higher cost, should be taken as the basic
course.

·If a person is enrolled both in regular course and course through distance learning then regular course
should be treated as the basic course irrespective of the cost involved.

For example: if a person undergoes MSc and DOEACC A-level courses simultaneously then MSc is to be
taken as basic course.

If an individual is pursuing more than two courses then the basic course should be taken as first course in
the way as suggested. After the first course is selected then from the remaining courses, the course, which
involves highest cost, should be taken as the second course.
