Hello,
Welcome to ARH Design Academy. Since its inception in 2014, ARH has been
providing training for Architecture, Design and Fashion entrance exams. We have
been focusing on providing top class coaching for aforementioned exams which have
have helped us in designing our courses intricately and preparing students not only
for the exams but to prepare them for the actual course also. In the last 5 years, 300+
students have found their dream college with us.NATA Crash course is the most
sought after course that we offer and we are proud to have established a high
success ratio results.

This handbook, #NATAsimplified, is designed to deliver a crystal clear picture of the
Architecture entrance exam i.e., NATA. We will also talk about the structure, Exam
Pattern and syllabus. All the details are enclosed in the handbook.

We hope this handbook proves helpful to students are parents alike in order to be
successful in NATA 2020.

Thank you.

Team ARH

Section 1 : About the exam
1) About NATA and JEE Paper 2

B.Arch is a 5 year degree course approved by AICTE and Council of Architecture (CoA).
It is a professional course and is run by around 425 seats across India offering
around 25000 seats. The course is mandatory for anyone who wishes to use the title
‘Ar.’ Before their name and practice architecture as a profession.

Admission to B.Arch is given on the basis of two entrance exams primarily,
a) National Aptitude Test in Architecture (Conducted by CoA)
b) Joint Entrance Exams (JEE) Paper 2 (Conducted by CBSE.

Please note that NATA and JEE Paper 2 are qualifying exams ONLY and getting a valid
score in either of the exam does not guarantee admission to B.Arch course. The score
of either of the exams in used, along with other criteria by State level Govt.
Authorities for admission in state and/or national level institutes.

Aspirants who are willing to take admission in B.Arch course are required to qualify
either of of the exams, failing to which the aspirant cannot take admission to B.Arch
course under any circumstances, may it be from management quota.

However, in this handbook, we will be focusing on NATA 2020.
