How to prepare for NIFT MFM, M.Des , M.Ftech group discussion

A group discussion is a group of individuals, gather at one place in the form of a circle with similar interest to share the ideas, solve problems or give comments. In simple terms, a group discussion is well known as GD. Generally, the group discussions are performed to assess the skill set of a person which includes communication skills, leadership skills, managing skills, team building skills, social skills, problem-solving skills and presence of mind. At last, the rating is given on a scale of 1 to 10.

Why GD became mandatory?

Before GD the candidate has to undergo the written exam which covers different subject levels such as quantitative aptitude, logical reasoning, general English and computer-based questions. Based on the cut-off, after qualifying the first round the candidate has to undergo the second round i.e group discussion. Group discussion became mandatory to filter the candidate’s soft skills and whether the candidate has the ability to cope up with different scenarios.

Who conducts a group discussion?

Generally, group discussion is conducted by large bodies such as universities, top-rated b-schools, management institutions & colleges and even by MNC’s. To get admission in NIFT top B-schools GD round is one of the most important & crucial rounds. This round is conducted to analyze the skills from different parameters and to select the right candidate for the right position so that it meets the company’s requirement.

Why do students fail to perform well in GD?

In today’s scenario most of the students fail to perform well in a group discussion because of the below three reasons:

  1. Due to the fear of speaking in public.
    2. Lack of knowledge on the topic.
    3. No proper command on language.

The process followed in GD:

NIFT Group Discussion and Interview, the selectors will select the students randomly based on the number. For a group usually, 8-10 members were selected. A topic is given and around 3-5 minutes of time is given to prepare. The duration of the discussion is based on the group, topic, college to college and organization to organization. Only on a few parameters, the assessment is done. The parameters such as content, supporting others point, giving relevant examples, latest updates or news, eye-contact, conclusion and behavioral traits.

There is no secret or any rules for preparing GD. Before going for GD one has to consider a few points.

  1. Be up-to-date on the latest information such as news and trending topics in the market.
    2. Make a habit of reading newspapers, books and magazines so that in-detail information is provided.
    3. The simple way to remember the content for a longer period is to watch videos for 2-3 times.
    4. Later on, select a topic and speak for yourself in front of the mirror. (Make assessment for yourself).
    5. Even be aware of different topics such as sports, political news, technology news, economics and market-related news.
    6.Know about the Indian Fashion and Textile Industry.

How to perform GD?

When a topic is given just think over it; under which category the topic is. It might be related to life, current affairs, technology, political news and any other trending topic in the market. So, think about the topic and frame the sentence in your own words to speak. When you are speaking you need to agree or disagree with the other points and you need to give a proper reason to it. But, don’t deviate/ mislead from the topic. Make others also speak & give chance to them to put the points into the discussion.

For suppose if you are leading the group:
1. Introduce yourself & give a brief note on the topic.
2. Make a start on a positive note.
3. Discuss the pros and cons of the topic and how to overcome them.
4. Make everyone speak.
5. Support other points.
6. If the group members are deviating from the topic it is your responsibility to bring them back.
As you are leading the group you need to conclude by summarizing all the points which were discussed.

Few tips for GD:

  1. Grooming (appearance)
    2. Be a good listener & support or add to the other points. (But don’t interrupt in middle)
    3. Speak loudly and clearly.
    4. Try to be the first and the last speaker of the discussion.
    5. Be confident while speaking (analyze with numbers if you know & it has to be fact).

 

 

 

 

Q. How was the NIFT 2021 Exam? Was it lengthy, difficult or moderate? What’s your analysis of the exam?

The paper pattern of NIFT B.des entrance paper didn’t see any changes. The paper format and the number of questions were in accordance with the announced NIFT exam pattern with the difficulty levels being moderate, all in all the paper was quite doable for any consistent student. There were six passages, each passage of around 120-150 words, they were small and weren’t time consuming in reading, however comprehending was more on an inference-based questions, which was little tricky for the students. Student with a good reading habit will surely find it easily doable. the topic based was on varied subjects, ranging from opera, music and art fair, aquatic animal to weirdest profession, other section of English was easy to moderate, the easiest being to identify the plural form, same was with one-word substitution and to identify the correct spelt word, idioms and phrase was moderate and same with antonyms and synonyms

Reasoning had mix of topics like Assertion and reason, puzzles which was little time taking but doable, other topics of cubes, series, Odd ones out, blood relations, directions, coding decoding, ranking & positioning could be attempted carefully.

Quantitative on the other hand saw all major topics covered from number system to ratio & proportion, SI, CI, profit & loss, work time, mixtures & allegations, etc.

The General knowledge segment was moderately easy with questions which has question three questions from brands, two questions on noble prize and four questions from static GK everything that we have been recommending and mentoring for found its presence in the exam. It will be fit to say that there were no surprises.

GAT section was not at all lengthy , 100 questions could be comfortably attempted in allotted time .If all the sections were attempted properly any score above 65-70/100 could be easily achieved

Q. Creative Ability Test is conducted to judge the Design Ability and Creativity of the student. Out of the three questions asked in the NIFT exam, which one required the most efforts and was the easiest?

Analysis of question is very important and also its imperative to understand what the examiner wants , In CAT this year too there were three questions to attempt. Two were from visual communication and the third was a creative product representation based.

Question No 1: “Design a virtual space for Webinar”.
This was for some tricky but at the same time a little brain storming could have gave students edge, as everyone is now well versed with EdTech platforms like Zoom ,Google meet ,Go to meeting etc. thanks to COVID 19 , we all had learning /interactions/meetings on these

platforms ,the question demanded to design a hypothetical digital meeting / learning platform and not the one that already exist as question was not on Re-design ,it was altogether about design a new interface display ,wherein student had the liberty to coin new brand ,slogan as well as its logo altogether. Reading the question properly and inferring it, was the key , as some students even ended up drawing a physical recording studio for webinar. That’s why it’s not about “How you draw’ but it’s all about “what you draw “

Q2: Design Emojis for the following:
(a) see you again (b) I don’t know (c) good morning (d) good night (e) sh…

It was again a visual communication question, where emojis for different communication has to be designed, one need to be very particular and avoid drawing the same circular shaped emoji, instead define, what is emoji ,it’s basically a visual which interpret a message or a communication , many of students would have interpreted it only as emoji face , which is very conventional.

This was the most easiest question in CAT but at the same time your creativity is being judged ,
how much you think “ out of the box”

Q3: choose any musical instrument and depict any four festivals each in a given box.

The challenge in any design exam is “ what you interpret” from the question.
There was clear instructions to innovate, design, change shape, colour, pattern of the instrument. Students were confused as to whether they had to choose one instrument and interpret it for four different festivals differently or four different instruments has to be used for each festival separately. Since the instrument could be completely renovated in terms of its
shape and form as well, it would be very interesting to see one instrument take four completely different forms. Ideally musical instrument is classified by the method of producing sound i.e. . Wind instrument, stringed instrument , percussion instrument etc . so ideally the question demands using a musical instrument type for different festivals, so if you choose string instruments then it could be guitar, violin, sitar and harp for different festival.

Knowledge on musical instrument as well as festival was the key , this question can be a decider for range of marks the students are expecting in their CAT part.

Q. Which were the toughest sections in the NIFT 2021 General Ability Test (GAT)?

Students found quantitative section tough as compared to other sections in GAT, this year the questions were more on application based rather than on implied basis, it was little time taking as one need to apply their understanding of the topic. Questions were from average, percentage, time & speed, S.I & C.I, Profit & loss, Ratio proportion and Number system.

Q. Was there anything unexpected in the NIFT Entrance Exam? If yes, then what was it?

Not at all, there was nothing unexpected as such, it was in line with what NIFT had notified in their notification

Q. How should students prepare for the Situation Test? What are important aspects they must keep in mind?

After student clears the CAT and GAT exam (CAT 50% and GAT 30%) weightage is given to this test, NIFT situation test is conducted (20% weightage). It is to evaluate the candidate’s skills for material handling and innovative ability in a given situation with a provided set of materials. Candidates must know how to crack NIFT situation test as their admission also based on the performance in the situation test which is the final round of the admission process. A total of 3038 seats across Bachelor of Design (B.Des.) programmes will be offered admission to the
shortlisted candidates across the across 16 campuses of the NIFT institute.

The following are the key to do for NIFT Situation test.
1- Make yourself familiar with materials, materials could be anything that you usually find
at your home i.e. Plastic (bags, bottles, packaging, utensils), Cloth fabrics, strings ( jute, rubber bands, plastic etc.) ,scarp metals, needles & threads ,different papers etc
2- Always learn and practice in group especially in classroom , as there will be lots and lots
of brainstorming ,boosting your ideations and creativity
3- Exchange thoughts, ideas with your mentor and also be very open to learning.
4- Explore unconventional use of materials, handling them effectively and productively is something requires time, so start your Situation test preparation early.

Its very important to acknowledge that situation test will definitely a key to boost up the ranking, and getting top NIFT Campus is altogether based on your ranking. even a small difference in marks , creates a wide gap in the ranking . so take the situation test very “ SERIOUSLY “

Q. According to you, when must a NIFT aspirant start preparing to get the best results?

Start early, stay ahead with your strategy and make a Strategic plan to get an edge over others. Successful are those who knows what they are meant for, where is their interest & which field they are passionate about. Once you make yourself clear that your goal is to pursue art &
design as a career devise productive time management strategies with a view of acing the NIFT
exam with good rank.

Ideally it is recommended that one should start preparation at high school level , but do not assume it to be mandatory , as NIFT exam is all about your ability to effectively execute your ideas and creativity in a piece of paper ,so first identify your existing skill set and what level you need to take these skill sets to score good ranking in exam . as your school grades are not indicator of these skill sets , so it becomes imperative for NIFT aspirants to choose a mentor & guide, who would actually identify your skill set and at the same time hone up the your own set of competencies.

The Indian real estate industry in Dec 2020 was estimated to be, rising income levels, urbanization and the rapid growth of the IT sector are the key drivers for the Indian real estate sector. Currently as the economy is facing a slump due to global downturn, the real estate sector is facing difficulties. However, in the next 2-3 years most of the larger players are anticipated to expand aggressively across the country. With this slump considered momentary, Indian real estate industry is likely to witness huge growth again. With increase in growth, demand for allied services like architecture, interior design & landscape architecture is likely to increase.

Architectural Design

Market
• Architecture is a highly competitive and multi-disciplinary profession, involving a variety of tasks.
• As a field, it covers myriad disciplines, including spatial design, aesthetics, project management and material management.
• There are many Institutions in the country offering undergraduate & post graduate courses in Architecture.
• From our survey, out of the total number of designers working in the country, this discipline accounts for the most with 81.25%.
• Majority of the architects belong to the age group of 20-35 & hold B.Arch as their degree of qualification.35
• Mumbai leads in terms of having maximum number of architects followed by Pune and Delhi.
• In terms of placements, maximum numbers of architects are placed in the private sector followed by being self employed & in public sectors.
Current Activities
• In terms of outsourcing, architectural services are gaining traction with scope including design development, detailed architectural plans, construction documentation, as-built drawings, shop drawings, and visualization (3D views & walk-through).
• Architectural outsourcing service in India has the potential to grow to $12 billion in the next four to six years, from its current level of $3.5 billion.36
• Annual requirement projections of architects’ stands over 10,000 which is expected to rise further but the training facilities available are still short.

Interior Design

  1. One key aspect of architecture, which is coming up and expected to play an increasing role in architectural design is environmental friendly buildings and structures. Green buildings will soon be a feature and a part of people lives.
  2. Interior design is a multi-faceted profession wherein creative and technical solutions are applied within a structure to achieve a built interior environment.
  3. Interior decoration and designing in India are getting popular with a lot of people opting for the services of trained interior designers for their houses / offices, etc.
  4. Reason can also be attributed to the changing definitions of homes and modern residential houses, which now symbolize more with the personalities of their owners.
  5. Interior design is also gaining popularity among workplaces and is being considered as a science helping to reduce stress and fatigue thereby increasing productivity.
  6. The services provided by interior decorators and designer cover a wide range of areas and include Interior decoration services, furniture and furnishings, facilities design, mechanical designing, residential interior architecture, etc.
  7. Keeping in mind the demand & separate need from architecture courses, various Institutions like University of Pune and Anna University (Chennai) have announced specialized courses in Interior design as B.Arch (Interior design).

Urban Design and Landscape Design

  1. Landscape architects consider how a place to be used and understand what kind of natural ingredients from grass to stone to falling water will serve best.
  2. The scope of the profession includes site planning, housing estate development, environmental restoration, town or urban planning, urban design, parks, landscape urbanism and recreation planning.
  3. The work also includes conducting Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) studies for a region (analyzing impact of development on natural resources in a region and taking steps to mitigate damage) and also assessing urban growth, need for open spaces, and developing suitable strategies to enhance the green cover of cities.
  4. The Industry is at a nascent stage in India, but with each year there seem to be new opportunities pouring in.
  5. To become a landscape architect, one needs to do an undergraduate course in architecture, followed by a two-year master’s program in landscape architecture.
  6. Application-oriented knowledge of plant systems and processes, plants and design, landscape engineering, eco-system analysis and field ecology is imperative as is knowledge of design history and culture.
  7. The demand for landscape architects is not just limited to architectural firms. One can find job with builders, government authorities like DDA, NDMC, and CPWD apart from working with architects.

Furniture Design

  1. Furniture designers create the designs that people use as furnishings in residential and commercial properties throughout the world.
  2. Furniture design is a blend of multiple disciplines & is much like fashion design, as the materials, textiles, metals, etc. used to make a piece of furniture can be comparable to materials used to make a piece of clothing. Furniture design also is much like architecture in that the furniture must prove stable and safe.
  3. Furniture designers either work for large manufacturing industries or in batch production companies. Many set up their own design and batch production studios, undertaking custom- designed furniture. Others contribute to interior design teams, working on projects for the service sector, besides corporate organizations.
  4. Furniture design programs teaches an integrated approach to furniture as a part of living, work spaces and habitat and challenges and defines the boundaries of such objects in systems context.
  5. The Furniture design programs provide students an opportunity to challenge and redefine the boundaries of furniture, as much as to develop its traditions. The programs ensure that students are able to perform at all levels of production of furniture in various materials, mass production industries, to the small scale and craft sectors.
