What is the best coaching across India to prepare for the CEED, NID and NIFT exam?

I gave the NID entrance exam this year. Let me just tell you that you really don't need any sort of coaching for it. The syllabus is unspecific, and questions from anywhere can be asked... After I gave the exam, I was so unsure about how it'll go.. The coaching centres charge really high fees and the fact is that they really can't influence your aptitude. I didn't even study the whole year for the test. Only did it the last few weeks. What you can (and should) prepare are your drawing skills. You don't have to be an excellent artist (my drawings were so-so) but you must present your ideas neatly and creatively. Learn to be different. When attempting the Subjective Questions, always counter your first instinct becaus usually out of the box ideas come after lots of thinking and rethinking.  Also read the questions of the drawing part Atleast twice, and realise what the question is asking. I'll tell you, I referred to a book by Arihant Publishers for the syllabus. I don't know about other entrance exams (like NIFT) but the book was not really of any use to me for the NID exam. But sometimes certain topics are asked again and again - like art forms, artists, novels, etc I also referred to a wonderful blog called Stuff You Look. You can get all the resources from there. Best of luck!

Don't know much about CEED coaching institutes in India but there are some good institute in Pune, Maharashtra. CEED and NATA requires common sense and design sense. Now there are 2 types in design sense 1. You are born with it OR 2. You need to learn it If you are born with it then there is no need for the coaching classes. If not the you definitely need coaching. Some of the Institutes for CEED, NATA coaching in pune are as below 1. BRDS 2. Silica 3. Brainksetch 4. pahel design As far as I know the quality of staff in Brainsketch is very good. Though BRDS is big brand, you never get personal attention there which is better at http://brainsketch.co.in/.

Design Quest is a recognized prep institute for these exams in Patna & Ranchi. Similarly there's Bhanwar Rathore Design Studio(BRDS). There are many other coaching institutes also. But I will suggest one to go for Self-Study as it is the most efficient tool to do good in any exam. Buy books online and practice a lot. That will better your answering skills. You can read online from various sites & YouTube is also of great help. Best of luck!

Hi.I think I’m perfect to answer this question. A year ago, I had been through the same dillema. As I was a PCM student, I had no time for my NIFT coaching. But still, I managed to get Fashion Design course at NIFT Banglore.Now the suggestions - All these institutes do not endorse or advice any coaching classes. Getting an admission in these institutes actually depends on your aptitude, knowlegde about the field and your interest. If you really have interest and serious about pursuing a career in this field, then nothing can stop you.Many coaching classes are available across India but according to me, creativity doesn’t flourish in a coaching class.Being creative is the key to crack NID,NIFT, CEED and for that you dont have to rely upon coaching classes. I would suggest that instead of paying high fees to the coaching centres, you must go on a tour or travel around. If not that, just observe the things around you. Go on a walk every morning and observe the details and designs of the things around. Wherever you go, try to observe and see the things from your perspective. Try to analyse the things and think about them!Apart from that, try to explore colours and learn about their meanings. For example - yellow color represents happiness and cheerfulness where Violet is for gloom and sadness. Try to connect with colors as the question in these entrance exams are related a lot to these color schemes.Watch Ads on TV. Yes, you heard me right. Questions are asked on that.Read newspaper everyday. You not only get to know the news but you English also get improved and English comprises an important portion in these exams. Try to learn new words, phrases, idioms etc.For Maths, you must know the basics that were taught in lower classes.Try to solve Logical reasoning books and crossword puzzles in free time. They are fun to do, good exercise for brains and will help you a lot to clear various entrance exams.Now the shortcut - Buy Arihant Self Study Guide and do the previous years papers from that to get the idea of question being asked. Its the best book as per my experience.Thank You.
