Nowadays of course computer can be used and gradually, the rules are in place for some exams at least. However, it should ultimately depend on individual choice and computer should never be advocated to the exclusion of a writer. I am aware of comparative merits/demerits of both the methods, but on a personal note, aesthetically, I have found it to be one of the good experiences of life to have writer beside you and dictate the answers. Some literary authors also follow this practice despite being visually normal...

However, some people do manage to successfully deal with all these problems and are able to give their exams on the computer. So, I thought that I should also consider that option. I also read somewhere that one is allowed to use a writer of a higher grade if the writer is in another stream. So, does this rule apply to all universities/boards?
