Buh I think we can fill the soft copy and even "copy-paste" d passport to d form since d form is editable.....your opinion pls?

In case there will be scholarship aptitude test. You will find this mobile application very helpful in your preparation for the test.

It is stated in the application process,that no documents should be attached to the application form and that the application form should be accompanied by a coloured passport photograph.Deducing from that I think the passport should be included in the application form besides that explains the empty box for passport photograph in the application form.
I have completed my application in this way and got a successful mail after submission.

Not at all... You don't need to secure an admission first. Just fill the form, if u have any school in mind put it else leave it blank

Sorry, you didn't answer the questions....pls, can you tell whether you printed a hard copy, fill n re-scan d completed form OR you filled d form in soft copy

You don't need to print it out. Just reduce the size of ur passport so that it fits into the box; copy and paste it there. Fill the softcopy on microsoft word, it will fit it just fine. To mark those small boxes, double click on them and a small window will pop up; click on check and leave everyother thing, then click ok. When you done, submit to the Email and you will get a confirmation mail.
Goodluck
