Hi Anu,
NATA comprises of two parts mainly, one being the drawing section and second is the online aptitude test. You can study on your own if you have a fair sense of 2D drawing, 3D drawing and Perspective for the drawing part. You get plenty of question papers online and there are online videos too for reference.
You get books for the NATA aptitude test. Refer some of these books for the test. These questions keep on repeating and they seem quite tricky at first, but are very easy if you know the logic behind solving these question's. You also need some basic knowledge on architects, famous buildings and the material used. That's all. If all of the above seems too much of self study then just join some NATA coaching classes for a year or so.

The test is in two parts. A paper based drawing test and computer based online aesthetic sensitivity test. The test measures aptitude of the candidate through two sections - a paper based section for drawing and computer based section for aesthetic sensitivity.
Scoring Process:
The answer to each question in the drawing paper will be examined by a panel of three examiners independently and the marks are averaged, It may be further subject to moderation.
During the computer based test, with adaptive testing, an examinee is administered a set of questions with difficulty level that is specially designed to match the examinee's ability level.
The mathematical process for calculating a score in this situation incorporates the statistical properties if the questions, the examinee's performance on the questions, and the number of questions that are answered.
How each sections of the test are scored?
Drawing Section: The Primary emphasis in scoring the drawing section is on the candidate's drawing imagination and observation skills. The candidate's sense of proportion & perspective is also valuated together with sense for colour and composition.
Aesthetic Sensitivity Section: The candidate's score will depend on his/ her performance on the questions given and on the number of questions answered in the time allotted. This section is computer adaptive, meaning that the computer selects questions based on the candidate's performance on preceding questions (When correct answer is given next questions is will be higher difficulty level whereas, if wrong answer is given next questions is of lower difficulty level) and on the requirements of the test design. Test design factors that influence which questions are presented to the candidate include:
The Statistical Characteristics.
The required variety questions types.
The appropriate coverage of content.
The final score depends on average difficulty level of all questions and of those questions answered correctly.

Hi Rupa,
So far as I know, the scenario of architecture engineering (scope wise) is not much better in India now a days.Even if u chose B. Arch in Jadavpur, u may be placed in an IT firm if your non-tech part will be good. BUT will u be satisfied after doing 4 years of B. Arch nd then joining an IT Firm.
In my view it will b better to opt for CSE in UIT, burdwan.because you'll be in college for 4 years only but you have to carry your branch till the last breath.
As you are interested in CSE and UIT burdwan is also a good college (no doubt, jadavpur university is superb), go for it.
Also try for IEM.
