I was also disqualified, although it gives no reason why. I’m a total.

I tried it also and I am a total. I also don’t need the qualifications but it says blind and low vision so I am not sure what is disqualifying a participant.

I am also totally blind, and it told me I did not meet the requirements. They asked many questions, so I don’t know if we can assume that it is because we are totally blind, or if it was another variable. For example, age, race, if you live by yourself or with people. I did find it odd, but I don’t know exactly what they are looking for.

If your a total don't bother, it'll kick you out and say you don't meet requirements. I tried it as it said low vision and blindness... thought blindness included totals...

Seems discriminatory to me.
