Cultural Talent Search Scholarship Scheme

Cultural Talent Search Scholarship Scheme

Instructions to the Parents/Gurus

The Cultural Talent Search Scholarship Scheme is implemented at the national level. There are hundreds of art forms practised in our country. Since the number of scholarships available are limited, only exceptionally talented and outstanding students need to apply.

Children whose date of birth is in between 01.07.1997 and 30.06.2001 (both days inclusive) are eligible to apply for the award of scholarships for the year 2011-12.

Minimum four years’ training in the field of art form in which scholarship is being applied, either with a guru or in an institution is essential.

Students applying for Performing Arts are required to submit a certificate from the Guru/teacher imparting training, clearly mentioning the details regarding the training received by them, the Bio-data of the Guru/teacher as per the prescribed format in the application alongwith three (03) photographs taken at the time of training or any performance.

Students applying for Painting must attach three (03) specimens of their latest work (either original or photograph) and those in Crafts, Sculpture etc. should attach three photographs of latest work, duly attested by their Guru/teacher alongwith the Bio-data of the Guru/teacher.

Gurus/Parents are requested to ensure that their wards possess certain level of standard in the field while applying. Not more than three (03) students of a Guru/Institution will be considered for award of scholarship at a time keeping in view the large number of applications received and limited number of scholarships available in each field. If more than one Guru/teacher is working in the same Institution, then also only three (03) applications of that Institution will be considered for award of scholarship. Only those applicants, whose names are recommended by Central Selection Committee, will be informed about the date, timings and venue of the interview/test by post only, which may be held during the months of May-July 2011 at Regional Level.

The candidate must apply only in one subject/field in which he/she is confident because only one scholarship could be availed under the scheme. All applications of those, who apply in more than one subject/field would be rejected straight away.

Students in folk, traditional and indigenous art forms should mention in Column No. 7 of the application form, the exact name of the art form and also the State/Ut, where it is practised. Students in traditional art forms, crafts, traditions facing extinction and belonging to families of practising traditional performing arts are given preference. They have to enclose a brief write-up to justify their claim for consideration in this category, otherwise their candidature will be considered in general category.

Application forms issued in previous years, incomplete applications and those without relevant information and documents/specimens/photographs regarding training will not be considered. Those who are already receiving the scholarship from CCRT or any other Institution should not apply again either for new scholarship or for extension. A scholarship holder shall not receive any other cultural scholarship/stipend in case he/ she is selected for CTSS Scheme, without the prior approval of the CCRT.

Last date for submission of complete and duly filled application form in the CCRT, New Delhi is 31.12.2010.

As the Indian Institutes of Management have adopted the CBT (computer-based test) mode for the Common Admission Test, the aspirants must get used to the format. The aspirants have to read and solve questions on the computer screen instead of paper and have to practice a large number of computer-based mock CATs. One need not get tensed about CBT as it will be similar to the paper-based one, where you can scan through questions and sections, review questions already seen and can come back to a difficult question. So, CAT remains mostly unchanged, though it requires mouse management skills to manage time.

The success of a candidate in CAT mainly depends on the following criteria

* Self assessment of strong and weak sections in quantitative, verbal ability and logical & data interpretation
* Focused Preparation
* Taking a large number of computer-based mock CATs
* The number of questions attempted
* Accuracy
* Attempting well prepared questions first

Preparation Strategy
Reading Comprehension and Verbal Ability You should focus on strengthening your skills by reading a wide range of non-fiction topics like rural development, space research etc in the e-book, e-paper or internet blog forms to help you do well in the online format.

Quantitative Ability:
Focusing on basic principles can fetch you good marks from this section. Strategic preparation by dividing the topics will be more useful. Don’t try for instant answers; instead practice questions using basic formulae to get answers.

Logical Reasoning:
This section requires no basic formulae. You should focus on understanding and analyzing the given statements carefully. One has to analyze the given statements in all the possible ways. Concentration plays a vital role in this section.

Data Interpretation:
It consists of analyzing, logical reasoning and calculation type of questions. Practice large number of questions based on pie charts, graphs and tables and focus on percentages and averages.

Do not set any minimum number of questions to be attempted as your target. Going by the past few years’ CAT papers, ambiguity and close options are likely, so proceed with caution while attempting the verbal section.
