Hi Anagha,

Though JEE Mains and NATA both are for architecture both are advisable to write if your passion is architecture. It is simply because they are a lot of colleges who consider only NATA scores and not JEE Mains 2 score for architecture admission. Some of those include Anna University, Chennai, VIT VELLORE, Sir JJ College of Architecture, Mumbai etc. Hope this helps. All the best!!

The National Aptitude Test in Architecture (NATA) measures the aptitude of the applicant for specific field of study, i.e. Architecture. The test measures drawing and observation skills, sense of proportion, aesthetic sensitivity and critical thinking ability that have been acquired over a long period of time, and that are related to specific field of study, i.e. Architecture.

Whereas JEE Mains gives you admission in NITs for B.Tech course.
