Absolutely, either NATA or JEE Paper 2 (B.Arch Aptitude Test) is compulsory for admission into Chandigarh University's architecture program. Even if a student has scored well in 12th or diploma, the aptitude test cannot be skipped because it is mandated by the Council of Architecture. These tests measure skills beyond academics, such as visualization, design sense, and problem-solving, which are vital in the architectural profession. Students are advised to register for at least one of these exams in the admission year. CU does allow provisional admission to students awaiting results, but for final admission, the NATA or JEE Paper 2 sc

Vectors

Differential & Integral Calculus

Practice MCQs and previous year NATA/JEE Paper 2 Maths questions

Strengthen speed and accuracy in problem-solving

For NATA, you don't need to study architecture as a full subject before the exam. However, having a basic awareness is very helpful because the General Aptitude section includes questions on:

  • Famous architects (like Le Corbusier, B.V. Doshi, Zaha Hadid, etc.)
  • Well-known monuments and buildings in India and abroad
  • Basic architectural terms (e.g., façade, elevation, plan, symmetry)
  • Environmental and design awareness (sustainable design, urban planning, materials)
  • So instead of studying architectural theory in depth, focus on:
  • Reading about important structures and landmarks
  • Learning about basic design principles (proportion, balance, perspecti
