NIFT/NID

• Demolish the myth that NIFT 2017 is just like
  any other competitive test for which general
  ability is assessed. True, it is an integral part
  of the admission process, but there is another
  hurdle that makes it more challenging to secure a
  seat in NIFT 2017 or NID, and it is known as
  Creative Aptitude.

Two Phases of NIFT

  basic idea of the NIFT 2017 entrance exam pattern
  and the type of questions. To begin with, it is
  divided into two phases. The first phase
  comprises 2 papers of 100 marks each.

Right Approach to Crack NID Entrance Test
1. Misconception It is a misconception that NID
tests sketching skills. Nope. Questions are meant
to judge creativity, imagination, visualization
skills and general awareness. Developing these
skills is vital. 2. Creativity Creativity is an
esoteric phenomenon. There is no universal
definition highly interpretative. Perhaps it is
the ability to come up with fresh, original and
unconventional ideas. Possess a profound insight
to problem-solving.

3. Time Drawing and creative skills are futile
if you do not present thoughts in the specified
time. Lose marks if you fail to answer or submit
an incomplete paper. Speed matters a lot and
makes all the difference between success and
failure. 4. Previous papers Study previous
papers of NID. Solve at least 8-10 past papers
within the time limit. Find a comfortable
sequence of answering the paper. If you hit a
mental block, breathe deeply, relax and then
attempt the questions.

5. Size Do not practice in A3 size sketch books.
Work in A4 size as it is the standard size of
answer sheets in the examinations. 6. Rote
learning Be aware of what is happening around.
Read quality newspapers regularly. Increase your
power of observation. Find out about
professionals who have contributed innovative
designs.

to clear the test. Motivate yourself. Work with
dollops of enthusiasm. Be amazed to discover new
ideas. 8. Medium Practice more with dry mediums

9. Outline In the questions requiring drawing,
sketch with a light hand first and outline sans
details. Once satisfied with the proportions and
the rough outline, proceed with finalization.
This saves a lot of time that students usually
squander in erasing and re-drawing. 10.
Schedule Plan the time for school or college
study and balance it with entrance preparation.
Use time effectively with a time-table.
