6 years agoHi,
You may submit the NATA registration number to the counseling center who can in turn ask Council of Architecture for details regarding the same. -
If you have applied for the Re-evaluation of the paper, then maybe your scorecard will come later on. But, if you haven't applied for it, and still your scorecard hasn't come, I think it means that you haven't qualified for the NATA exam. Now, for the admission procedure in government architecture colleges, every college has its own counseling session and you have to stay alert on the website of the college for which you want to apply. There is no unified counselling system like JOSAA for JEE paper 2.

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

In the NATA Drawing section, questions are designed to test your creativity, imagination, visualisation, and sketching ability. You won't be judged on artistic perfection, but on clarity, proportion, perspective, and originality.

Yes, NCERT Mathematics (Class 11 & 12) is generally enough for NATA preparation because most of the topics in the syllabus are covered in NCERT.
The NATA Mathematics section usually tests:
Algebra
Trigonometry
Coordinate Geometry
Matrices & Determinants
Probability & Statistics
Vectors
Differential & Integral Calculus
NCERT will give you a strong base, but since NATA questions are often application-based, you may also want to:
Practice MCQs and previous year NATA/JEE Paper 2 Maths questions
Strengthen speed and accuracy in problem-solving
Use reference books (like R.D. Sharma or Arihant) if you want extra practice
So, NCERT is sufficient for concep
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
