Shiksha Top Questions

Usually, questions may not be asked from very limited lists. Questions are free-flowing and you may get asked something that no one before has ever been asked in a NID interview. In fact, be ready for this. Rules to answer all questions: Be honest and be spontaneous (It does not mean impulsive. Take time if you have to, and be honest with that). Having said that, questions are usually asked to check your aptitude. Basically, ability to observe, solve problems and look at things in different ways. There is a good chance that there might be a psychologist (if not a psychiatrist) on the panel (yes, people are semi-crazy and you have to be). Some of the probable questions: 1. Why do you want to come to NID or do design in general? What do you know about the profession, if at all? 2. Hobbies. Whatever your hobby, be ready to demonstrate. (People have danced, performed magic tricks, acted, played an instrument etc.). 3. Your temperament will be checked. There might be things said to you to irk you or irritate you. 4. Social fit. Things that you are and are not comfortable with may be checked. 5. If you carry something to show to them (like a model or drawings or anything at all), questions/discussions will arise from them. A. What inspired you to make this? B. Whats the story? C. What medium did you use? D. How did you learn to make this? 5. What did it cost? Most of all, it's a discussion process more than just questions and answers. Don't forget to be honest and comfortable and make sure you enjoy yourself.

If you are asking for important topics for NIFT entrance, then these depend on the type of course you want to opt for. For example, if you want to be a design student then apart from general aptitude, your design ability would be checked. General aptitude covers basic mathematics. 10th standard book is sufficient for this. You can score good marks in general knowledge if you are aware about current TV ads. You should also be aware about brand ambassador of certain clothing brands. Apart from this, creative ability test is a situation based test where you will be checked on your creativity. Otherwise, if you want to be a part of any technical course like MFT, a single test would be conducted for you covering general ability test.

Hello,
B.Arch (Bachelor of architecture) is an undergraduate course of 5 years duration in the field of architecture. This course enables aspirants to become successful architects. Creativity and also the ability to take quick effective decisions are a necessity for any capable architect. The most common job responsibilities of a B.Arch graduate include the following:
1) Supervision
2) Planning
3) Designing
4) Construction
5) Inspection
B.Arch is a course for which you need to have hands on experience and training. This can be achieved by internships and work experience only. So, going for a job after B.Arch is recommended. Only then you can gain more practical knowledge about the field and the work you do. You can then pursue M.Arch which would be more beneficial. As you would also have few years of work experience it helps you in getting a better job with a good salary. These people can opt for various courses as part of higher studies as well which will increase their choice of job profiles and also the salary offered.

Most professionals working as 'Landscape Architect' are from engineering background. So, in order to become architecture in landscape you need to have at least Bachelor's degree. You will spend 4-5 years taking classes in design, construction techniques, art, history, and natural and social sciences.
It doesn't matter if you don't have a Bachelor's degree in landscape architecture, you can further continue your landscape architect career. But apart from the academic degree, your internal skills matter the most. You must possess a good sense of creativity. Your creativity will allow you to design beautiful outdoor spaces that will be functional as well. Landscape architects must make decisions and solve problems. Strong critical thinking skills will let you identify possible solutions and then evaluate them before choose the best one.

Hi, VIPS tries to get more and more companies every year, so that every student gets placed. The college even gets internships for students doing BCA and BJMC Law and BJMC. Placements are rather better, though even here most students choose to look for a job themselves. Companies that visit the campus are Airtel, NDTV, Zee, Mid-day for journalism students. The college doesn't own its own hostel which is one drawback but there surely are PGs/Flats (private) at a stone throw distance from the campus. As I said earlier that the region outside college is less safe, it all depends on you whether to go for PGs or not. Students from outer Delhi region have no choice but to stay in PGs or at a relative's place. The faculty at the Vivekanand Institute are senior professors, with high qualification and a lot of experience in their respective fields. Faculty members in all the departments are good, and dedicated. Many are friendly and understanding, many aren't. Professors often provide handouts so that students can study at home. You won't feel much of a difference at first between school and college due to the strictness for dress codes but you would surely sink in the environment later. All the best.
