The Council of Architecture has mandated NATA is required for Architecture. Or the other is the JEE Mains Paper 2 test as a mandatory criterion for admission to any Architectural College or degree in India.
A candidate can only take two tests at a time. Candidates can register for either the NATA entrance exam first or second test, or both, by filling out the appropriate application form.
The NATA 2021 is a computer-based examination. The test has a total of 200 points. In 180 minutes, you must answer 125 questions (3 hours). There will be one, two, or three marks for each question. Multiple-choice questions (MCQs), Multiple Select questions (MSQs), Preferential Choice questions (PCQs), and Numerical Answer questions are all possible (NAQ).
You can apply for B.Arch by taking two popular all-India level exams. JEE Main (Paper-II) and NATA are the two most well-known architecture entrance exams on a national basis. The NATA is administered by the COA, while the JEE Main Paper 2 for B.Arch is conducted by IIT Bombay
Only if you are getting into an IIT or NIT through JEE can you enroll in B.Arch without NATA. In the subject of architecture, both tests are equally important. You can show up for one or both of them.
