r/NID

Like any type of information will be helpful cus I'm so stressed out over it

I am in grade 12th right now with pcm stream . I am planning to give NID exams and I have not joined any coaching. I have talked to my friends or seniors who are also going to give the exams and most of them suggest that I get into a coaching because without that I will not have any idea on how to start the prep but I genuinely don’t feel like taking coaching class because I will get too overwhelmed as I have to prepare for boards on my own too. I believe that if I work out a bit . Watch youtube videos , sketch , do my own research and solve sample paper I will be able to pull it off . Am I feeling too confident here? I feel like have a different understanding of creativity and that is a plus point for me ( am I being a narcissist and do I need to be humbled 😭? ) . I would genuinely appreciate any advice especially from the ones who have cleared NID on their own .

Suggest me good online coachings for UCEED/NID/NIFT 2027 prep (12th grader here 😭)

Hey everyone! I'm currently in 12th and planning to seriously prepare for UCEED, NID, NIFT etc for the 2027 attempt. Since I prefer online coaching, I wanted some honest suggestions from people who’ve actually enrolled in batches or prepared through them.

Would really appreciate if you could share your personal experience, like:

- Which coaching did you join?

- Was it actually helpful or just overhyped?

- Class timings + how many days per week?

- Do they conduct regular tests/mock exams?

- How’s the faculty & doubt solving?

- Is the material enough for prep?

- Fee structure (reasonable hona chahiye yrr 😭)

- Was it manageable along with school/12th boards?

- Also, if possible, please mention whether you were in live classes or recorded batches and what worked better for you.

I've heard names like BRDS, Silica, Design Aspirants, Divergent classes, Pahal Design, Ignite India etc. but I'm super confused about which one is genuinely worth it.

Would love honest reviews instead of promotional stuff 🙏🏻 Thanks in advance!

Colleges in jaipur for communication design or visual design?

Like WHY THEY HELL HAVEN'T THEY EVEN GIVEN US A FIXED DATE ? IS NID GONNA DROP B DES RESULTS RANDOMLY OR SOMETHING?

So this might be a bit long but pls bear with me.

Hi so I'm a budding artist and design aspirant. I do acrylic painting, sketching and crafting. Now these days I have been seeing on instagram how everything is wrong in art.

All my life I have been using references or something. For example for paintings i usually take a tutorial step by step or a picture and recreate it. How else would I know where to give highlights and shadows and the correct shades ?

Even with crafting each and every one of my works were either pinterest inspired or a yt tutorial.

Same with live sketching, your looking at a scenery or whatever now is that wrong ?

Now about drawing I used references or maybe from my imagination but the others ? Ofc art can be created beautifully from imagination but for these elements you need references and you need tutorials sometimes. Nobody is a pro. Does that make me a bad artist?

I really would love ppl's opinion on this. Feel free to comment.

I read it daily, I try not to read biased ones, i’ve been told to find out what’s going on in the design world but to be very honest I can’t find any material to read. I will do static gk from the book but for current affairs I need something substantial.

It looks More than 750 students are short listed for Mains as per seat number?, seat number are random or number of students short listed?

I dont think I can take coaching. It feels like a waste of money and time as well. I don't live in places where good design coachings exist. Im not okay with online ones. I need genuine guidance from anyone ;-; and resources alone isn't enough. I need someone to talk to about this. Im taking a drop which I want to take. I just wanna make sure I dont give the exam with any regrets. I js wanna make sure I do everything that I possibly can do. I need your help for that. I will appear for bdes btw.

help
