Candidates who have a disability or have difficulty handling the computer for the Part A section of UCEED can apply for a scribe. The scribe service will not be available for Part B of UCEED, as it is a subjective paper consisting of drawing and sketching. Candidates have to attempt Part B themselves without any assistance. The scribe service will be available only to those who fulfil the prescribed eligibility criteria in this regard, which is discussed below in this article.
Candidates can apply for a scribe when submitting the UCEED application form. To apply, candidates have to select the scribe service option in the application form. Additionally, candidates must upload a valid UDID card and/or a PwD certificate as per the format given in Appendices 5-9.

blindness, locomotor disability in both arms together and cerebral palsy, upon submission of a valid UDID card or an additional medical certificate as per the proforma given in Appendix 10.
In the case of disabilities other than blindness, locomotor disability (affecting both arms together), and cerebral palsy, the scribe services can be availed by submitting a certificate which proves the presence of a functional limitation to write, caused by the specified disability and, therefore, a scribe is essential to write the examination on his/her behalf. The certificate must be issued by the Chief Medical Officer/ Civil Surgeon/Medical Superintendent of a Govt. healthcare institute as per proforma given in Appendix 10
The scribe services can be availed only for Part A of the UCEED exam

Candidates are not allowed to bring their own scribe. They must choose their scribe a day before the exam from a panel of scribes nominated by the authorities at the exam centre.
The scribes will be students of Class 9th or 10th.
If a candidate who has used the scribe service and is found to have not met the eligibility requirements for a scribe, then such candidates will be disqualified from the admission process
Once a candidate has availed the scribe service, then they cannot change their reservation category from the PwD category to their original birth category.
