The last days before the examination are usually critical because the candidate's performance during this time determines the results. Candidates should do their all in the final days before the exam to achieve a successful performance. Here are some of the best last-minute NATA preparation ideas.
- Candidates are recommended not to begin any new topics a few days before the entrance exam. Because this increases the likelihood of confusion, applicants should revise and enhance their previous knowledge.
- Revision should be done on a daily basis so that students do not forget what they have previously studied for the entrance exam.

No, appearing for the NATA exam is not necessary for admission to TSAP - Thakur School of Architecture and Planning BArch course. The institute accepts two exams for BArch admissions: JEE Main Paper 2 and NATA. Thus, students aspiring to take admission but haven't appeared for NATA can apply via JEE Main Paper 2 scores. Moreover, students with a valid accepted exam score must participate in the MHT CET CAP counselling process.
