Im gonna tell you about my own experience. I took Paper-2 in 2016 and scored 209/390 with 88% in CBSE and my rank was 8385. Unfortunately, this rank couldnt land me in any of those SPAs and NITs. My boards kinda wrecked it.
From 2017 on, as board rule has been ripped off, you will have to score 1015 marks less than what you needed then. Some people say that competition will increase, so you require to score more than usual. But what Ive seen is many people who got top ranks(less than 3000) had scored between 200220 but their Boards percentage was above 90%. My own Board percentile was 92.03 which means 7.98% of people scored a percentage more than 88% in Boards(and obviously have taken Paper-2 exam). Any score for that percentage gets really boosted. If I score 209 in 2017, my approximate rank would be around 6k(Based on predictions of my Coaching profs). This means that anything above 250 is gonna be a top score. You score 270+ and you see yourself sitting in SPA Delhi.
Paper-2 is not difficult. You just need to practice some JEE level Math and thats it. Drawing portion is immensely easy to do. You can have a look on some of the JEE drawing questions a week prior to your exam and that would be more than enough. If youve got aesthetic sensibility then you can skip practice for aptitude section as well. I never felt any sort of difficulty in that section. Just go through some history and general knowledge of architectural world by going through previous years papers. That would be enough for you to score good.
In B.Arch all top SPAs and NITs close their ranks at 3k. If you want to get into SPA Delhi, youll need an AIR of below 800. For other colleges, you need to NATA NATA exam.
Thank you :)
Last year closing rank for spa,delhi was
529 for bachelor of planning
And 105 for bachelor of architecture.
And for home state NIT, Tiruchirapalli it was 285.
However in NIT,patna closing rank was 2553.
These are closing cutoff of 7th round, 2017 counselling.
Good luck...
