NATA Coaching in Ahmedabad 2024 -2025
The National Aptitude Test in Architecture (NATA) is a qualifying exam for a 5 years degree course, B.Arch program. Candidates who wish to join this program have to mandatorily pass this test, and then apply for the undergraduate course in Architecture. If not NATA entrance exam, then candidate has to clear JEE (Paper 2). NATA was first held in 2006, and since then, it is being conducted by the National Institute of Advanced Studies in Architecture (NIASA), which is a body of the Council of Architecture in New Delhi.
NATA is a national level examination and analyzes the aptitude of a candidate in Architecture, Design, and related aspects such as creative/critical thinking, general aptitude, observation skill, sense of proportion, Mathematical knowledge, English communication, etc. There is a separate test for drawing, which is paper-based, and another computer-based online test to judge a candidate’s aesthetic sensitivity.
Below given are some more details about NATA entrance exam, which is held in two parts.
- First and the Second Exam: The Council of Architecture has granted a provision, wherein a candidate can attend NATA twice in the same year. The second test can be only attended by candidates who had missed the first exam, or want to improvise marks obtained in the first exam. Both the exams are held on different dates, but on a single day across India.
- The test consists of aptitude problems, objective questions, and multiple choice questions for Mathematics and Architecture. But, the Drawing section has only two questions of 40 marks each, which is a hands-on practical exam.
- Process for NATA Registration: To register online for NATA, candidates must visit www.nata.in and full the registration form. Provide personal details and submit the required documents, before proceeding to pay the fee. Make sure that all the mandatory sections in the form are filled and contain accurate details.
