Hi,
NATA is conducted every year by COA for admissions in Architecture. All the NATA aspirant should have secured at least 50% marks in their qualifying exams. When the student attempts NATA he has to score more than 40 % marks in the exam, only then one can get an admission in a nice reputed architectural college. We have a couple of institutes providing coaching for NATA and architecture exams, one can know if its the best only when they visit the institute personally and observe things there. One of the good institutes I know is MAD SCHOOL in Hyderabad and Chennai. They have trained and successfully helped many students grow and join the best architectural colleges in the country. You can check them out here https://www.madschool.in/.

Hi,As the name is self-explanatory, India Institute of Engineering Science & Technology is one of the biggest and the oldest institution for doing engineering and architectural courses in India. The market value of IIEST is no less than Indian Institutes of Technology. So in the same way, the faculty members are also one of the best here. The professor (Mr. Mukherjee) is the founder of Tata Iron & Steel. Apart from it, there are a lot more teachers who have an excellent knowledge of the subject and having the good industrial experience to pass on the children. On the side of infrastructure, this is the best college. Its hostels (of boys and girls) are very good. The campus is at a great location with a good connectivity of public transports. And, the college is also Wi-Fi enabled to access all the study material for the students.

Hi,
Jadavpur University, Sushant School of Art, and Ansal University are the decent colleges for B.Arch, but if someone have to choose among these three then Jadavpur University is the best option for an aspirant who wants to join B.Arch course. For admission in Jadavpur University, a student needs to score more than 50% marks in class 12th with maths and physics as a subject and aspirant needs to secure a good rank in WBJEE exam. Jadavpur University ranked 9 among all the colleges in India. University QS Asia ranking is 125 and ranked 99 by Times BRICS. Jadavpur University has collaborations with many colleges such as IIT-Bombay and company for better education and training of students. Jadavpur University acquired CSIR research lab and became the first Indian institute to have such lab for research. For more details about Jadavpur University, visit the link provided below:

Hi,It is not necessary to be good at drawing portraits, figures, landscape etc. To excel in architecture and pursue B.Arch. It is more about the creative aptitude and the passion for design. There are many architects who communicate about their design through physical models. Also, I would like to point out here that there's a big difference between drawing like an artist and sketching your thoughts out on the paper no matter how messy they look. It does not need to be neat and clean but original. It obviously helps if you are good at sketching but not the deciding factor to pursue architecture. Other skill you need to inculcate is your observation and an eye for the little details. You should have a knack for design, which is of utmost importance. Grow your knowledge about buildings to fetch some quick marks in the entrance exam.

These are the most important topics to focus on while preparing for B.Arch exams. It has 2 parts. Part 1 being Mathematics & General Aptitude
Part 2 being drawing test
Part 1 Consists of - MATHEMATICS
Algebra: Definitions of A. P. and G. P. ; General term; Summation of first n-terms of series. Arithmetic/Geometric series, A. M. , G. M. and their relation; Infinite G. P. series and its sum. Logarithms: Definition; General properties; Change of base. Matrices: Concepts of m x n (m 3, n 3) real matrices, operations of addition, scalar multiplication and
multiplication of matrices. Transpose of a matrix. Determinant of a square matrix. Properties of determinants (statement only). Minor, cofactor and adjoint of a matrix. Nonsingular matrix. Inverse of a matrix. Finding area of a triangle. Solutions of system of linear equations. (Not more than 3 variables). Trigonometry: Trigonometric functions, addition and subtraction formulae, formulae involving multiple and submultiple angles, general solution of trigonometric equations. Properties of triangles, inverse trigonometric functions and their properties. Coordinate geometry
3-Dimensional Co-ordinate geometry: Direction cosines and direction ratios, distance between two points
and section formula, equation of a straight line, equation of a plane, distance of a point from a plane. Theory of Calculus
Application of Calculus
Permutation and combination
Statistics and Probability
GENERAL APTITUDE - Objects, texture related to architecture and built environment. Interpretation of pictorial compositions, Visualizing three-dimensional objects from two-dimensional drawing. Visualizing different sides of 3D objects. Analytical reasoning, mental ability (visual, numerical and verbal), General awareness of national/ international architects
Mathematical reasoning
Sets and Relations
Part 2 - DRAWING TEST
Understanding of scale and proportion of objects, geometric composition, shape, building forms and elements, aesthetics, colour texture, harmony and contrast. Conceptualization and Visualization through structuring objects in memory. Drawing of patterns - both geometrical and abstract. Form transformations in 2D and 3D like union, subtraction, rotation, surfaces and volumes. Generating plan, elevation and 3D views of objects. Creating 2D and 3D compositions using given shape and forms. Perspective drawing, Sketching of urbans cape and landscape, Common day-to-day life objects like furniture, equipment etc., from memory.

Hi,
Bharti Vidyapeeth Common Entrance Test is the exam conducted for various courses. However, its syllabus is similar to class 11th and 12th concepts that you use to study as the part of CBSE -NCERT syllabus. Still, there are some topics that are considered to be most important because they are frequently asked in the exam. Below, I am going to segregate the topics which are important. (#) For Physics: The classical mechanics (laws of motion, work- energy & power, kinematics) is quite important. After that, you have to learn thoroughly the concepts of thermodynamics, and Oscillation & Waves. (#) For Mathematics: Topics you have to study are Quadratic equations, entire Calculus (everything about that since it has more weightage), straight lines and 3-D geometry. These are some of the topics which are actually the more than enough to secure the passing marks in that exam. It is advisable to study all chapters to score more than good marks in the exam.
