WHAT IS NSTSE?

WHAT IS NSTSE?

National Level Science Talent Search Examination

NSTSE is a diagnostic test which actually helps students improve.

Unlike regular tests which try only to find out how much a child knows (or has memorized), NSTSE measures how well a student has understood concepts and gives detailed feedback on the same, to help them improve.

Thus NSTSE helps each student know whether he/she has actually understood a concept early on so that immediate action can be taken. Often students have conceptual gaps which increase as they progress and when they reach the higher classes, they develop a "phobia" for the subject.

School tests - including board exams - tend to be superficial, testing what children have memorised. But the important skills like the ability to think independently and reason logically - critical in today's world - are often not emphasised in school tests.

The focus on fundamentals is so important that when the child finishes studies he/she will have to face the competitive world armed with these fundamentals. Even while opting for higher studies, the student has to go through a complete scan of what he/she knows and how much. Exams like IIT-JEE, AIEEE, AFMC, AIIMS, GRE, GMAT, CAT etc., are so designed to test the fundamental strength of student. Hence the need of the hour is building the fundamentals base as strong as possible.

This exactly is the philosophy behind the Unified Council's NSTSE.

NSTSE is unlike other tests in many different ways. It

• has interesting questions that require thinking, not simply recall.
• provides detailed skill-wise feedback highlighting strengths and weaknesses
• provides a benchmark of the student's performance with peers all over the country.

Thus, NSTSE focuses on IMPROVEMENT rather than comparison or grading. It also reduces the stress of exams by checking UNDERSTANDING rather than FACTS.

Revision of Interest Rates and Various Changes in SB rulings (5)

1.	Even after running the ‘MoF_RateChange.exe’ patch, the software shows wrong maturity date for MIS and NSC 5 Year Issue.
	The maturity date shown in the software will continue to show the older maturity period and will not affect any present activity and hence you can ignore the maturity date displayed in the software. As per the SB order No 23/2011 the certificates needs to be stamped and signed by the Postmaster before being given to the customer.
2.	What is the procedure to follow for allotting registration number for the NSC issue after the implementation of the new SB orders?
	For NSC 5 Year issue the previous block of registration number allotted for NSC 6 Year issue should be continued without break. For the new NSC 10 Year issue, a new block of registration number is to be allotted. At present, NSC 10 Year issue is to be handled manually and is NOT available in the Sanchay Post software.
3.	What is the procedure to follow for return of KVP stock and for issue of duplicate KVP?
	A report is provided in DBAnalyzer (dated 02/12/2011) under Database Discrepancies >> KVP >> KVP Stock to list the KVP unsold stock from the Sanchay Post database. This report can be printed at each office and sent to HO along with the stock. These reports should be consolidated at HO while returning the stock to CSD. A provision to make the stock ‘NIL’ will be provided later.
4.	Should some stock for issue of duplicate KVP be retained at the HO while sending unsold stock to CSD?
	No, all the stock of unsold should be returned to CSD.
5.	Is the new rate of one percent deduction on the rate specified applicable for TD PMC for TD accounts opened before 01/12/2011?
	Yes, the new rate of TD PMC is applicable for all TD accounts opened before or after 01/12/2011, but prematurely closed on or after 01/12/2011.
