B.Arch

Hi Pihu,
NATA is just a qualifying exam. Candidates have to fill the application form or go through the admission process of each college individually. There are about 385 institutions, which offers admission on the basis of NATA Score.
But if you take into consideration for example Chandigarh College of Architecture, it offers admission on the basis of JAC Chandigarh. Click here for JAC Chandigarh JAC Chandigarh 2015
Another Example about the same is Sir JJ College of Architecture, it offers admission through CAP Counselling. Click here for Sir JJ college of Architecture Sir JJ College of Architecture Admissions 2015
Reminding you again, you have to go through the admission process of each college individually. Colleges publish their own individual notices or cut off list.
NATA is a compulsory exam for taking admission to any Architectural College or course in India (Except NITs & IITs) and is an eligibility test for admission into the Architecture Course.
• NITs offer admission on the basis of JEE Main
• IITs offer admission on the basis of Architecture Aptitude Test

All the best.

Hi Divya,
Hypothesis
In life, we can't guarantee anything. People clearing IIT JEE might fail later in Engineering, while person failing in JEE might be able to do better in career.
Experiment
Aptitude test or NATA is for qualifying architectural course. On average, scoring better in it would means you would enjoy the course. But it is not a guarantee that you would be as successful as you were in NATA scoring. You can't compare 5 years program with a 2-3 hour exam. Obviously, you need patience and consistency for doing good in architecture.
And even if you do good in course, does not guarantee that you would be similarly successful in career or practice.
I would suggest you that don't expect that ways. Enjoy the course, if you are interested in this field.
Hope this helps. Click on the thumbs up or mark it as the best, if you found this useful.
Wish you Luck!

Shruti, Design is a field that is age old and has been evolving every year like science. Sometimes student Artists are too much enamoured by Fine Arts preventing them to look objectively at Design. They must read this http://bit.ly/SXc9GD. Again like science it pays to be at the cutting edge. For e.g. science students do better if they go for CS or IT since that are areas where development is taking place rapidly. Similarly in Design the cutting edge areas are UID/ UXD, 3D Printing, Immersive Technology, Augmented Reality, 3D Projection etc, besides of course Game Design and Animation. At this stage, you may want to understand the creative world and the careers it offers. There are many careers for the creative/ artistic people. Interiors, textile as well as Web Design rely on the same skills - your layout skills and color sense. Journalism also is at this level and relies on your language skills and knowledge of history and current affairs. A little higher perches Graphic Design, Fashion Design, jewellery design, Acting, and Fine Arts which rely on one of your artistic skills - sketching and imagination. At a similar level perches VFX as well as Motion Graphics which rely on one of your artistic skills - Cinematographic skills and imagination. Then come careers like Animation, Film Making, Game Design which rely on multiple talents like your authority over sketching, acting, direction, voice, sound, writing, storytelling and problem solving skills etc. Any extra skill can be used in this. So it turns out to be one of the most challenging as well as satisfying careers. Sure not recommended for the weak hearted. Do remember that digital design careers (e.g. web design, graphics, UI design, animation, vfx, multimedia) give better profits since they can be delivered anywhere in the world and hence may earn in dollars - resulting in better rewards for designers. You may also like to read this about the kind of preparation the best students put into design http://bit.ly/1ddUSi8. Wish you the best for your career. Remember, your Career is a resultant of your knowledge combined with your passion and expression ability. If you like this answer you may select it as best answer or press like.
