Hello Akhilan,

170 Seems to be a good score if you compare it to the score of paper-I..

but believe me it isn't.

i don't want to disappoint you but sadly its the truth.

I myself got got 202 in my paper-II and 81% in ISC board, my rank was 26011( general quota). I was happy about it but the happiness didn't last long.

I'm gonna explain you why.

first of all when you apply for JEE paper-II you dream big, u think of IIT's and NIT's. Thats were the problem comes into existence.

most of the IIT's and NIT's are institution for technical purposes as the last 'T' in them denotes.

so basically there isn't much for an architect there as there is for an engineer in those prosperous government institutes.

for getting admission as an architect in an IIT or NIT through JEE one would have to crack paper-I too and appear for JEE ADVANCE.

If you made through then congo else i'll help you out with some other options.

if u are mad about being a architect then u would have definitely  heard about NATA(National aptitude test for architecture). It is to architect what JEE is to engineers. It give access to all the architectural colleges in India.

Yes, the IIT's and NIT's too if you cleared the JEE MAIN.

NATA paper is something that makes sense for admission as an architect.

Clearing JEE MAINS for architect is bogus and doesn't makes sense.

NATA paper consist of general aptitude and drawing skill. So basically you don't need to learn how 'oil of wintergreen' is made as in chemistry to be an architect. the paper is quite easy if you ask me but when the result comes out its not even close to what you think. What people think is that they can learn aptitude in few days but what they don't understand that the logical reasoning is developed throughout their lifetime. That's what you call IQ.

Time is the basic concern as the aptitude paper is held online and each question holds a limited amount of time, at max 60 seconds. So definitely carry a watch.

i would advice you too buy some solved question banks(watch out for picture questions), they'll help a lot in aptitude.

If you didn't made through your IIT MAIN paper-I. Don't feel sad. get your shit together and try NATA if being an architect really mean something to you.

For the drawing part u'll need to draw three different things.

what i got was something like

to draw a view of a zoo

to draw a sculpture using 6 vehicle tyres

to draw an alankaar and fill it with only 4 colours

one thing i need to make clear here, no one gives a shit how beautifully u can draw an elephant's trunk. they need to test your perspective and how capable you are on implementing dem on paper.

keep ur imagination alive.

If you didn't made through your IIT MAIN paper-I. Don't feel sad. get your shit together and try NATA if being an architect really mean something to you.
