ARCH Academy of Design conducts an All India Entrance Examination for Design (AIEED). It is conducted in April and May to offer admissions to undergraduate and postgraduate students in Fashion and Design. ARCH College of Design and Business is a Design College located in Jaipur.

AIEED is conducted in two stages-

1. General Ability Test (GAT) and
2. Creative Ability Test (CAT)

The entrance exam tests the students on their aesthetic sense and creativity. As it is for the Design college, it also takes into account the design sensitivity, logical reasoning and problem-solving aptitude of the students. Those students who qualify this exam have to go through a Portfolio Assessment and Personal Interview. 

The exam is conducted in both online as well as offline mode. AIEED is scheduled to be conducted through the online mode in 2021. The eligibility criteria are different as per the different courses. All the students who have cleared their Class 12 from a recognised board are eligible to give AIEED. If the students want to apply for a UG programme in Interior Designing, the score of NATA, as well as AIEED, is considered.

It is actually the other way around. CDS and AFCAT have more advantages over NDA. Some of the advantages of NDA are as follows.

• In the academy, Sainik school types perform quite well.Also, you will have many senior pals there.

• You will learn the military way of life quite early.
• Through NDA, you can become an officer fast. Provided you join after 12th.
• You start early in NDA, so you get to serve the maximum tenure. This ensures that you will be around when the candidates are considered for promotion. This is the reason why NDA guys make it to the very top.
• There are certain aspects of psychological conditioning that go with 3 years of NDA. You can expect NDA guys to outperform CDS and AFCAT guys. 

In NDA, Govt. pays for your graduation. So, your graduation is basically free. You become financially independent at a young age. You are also molded into the system early.

My cousin have qualified both exams and without a doubt, CDS is the toughest one. The reason being that the CDS paper is created by the UPSC, whereas AFCAT is prepared by the Indian Air Force. So you have to think a lot when attempting CDS questions, it tests your conceptual knowledge. AFCAT touches on basic topics and is much easier. 

The following points must help you in a better understanding:

• If you have a good basic knowledge of the English language, mathematical skills, GK and are updated on current affairs, then AFCAT will be a smooth ride. On the other hand, CDS will require an in-depth study of the syllabus.
• You can clear AFCAT by simply going through the previous year’s papers. If you are not able to clear it in the first go, you'll definitely do so in the second because there'll be a gradual increase in your score as well.
• Also, do a self-analysis and ask yourself whether you're good in GS or in English and Reasoning? If the former, then CDS will be easier to qualify! If the latter, then AFCAT will be your thing.

Here's a table reflecting the previous three-year cut-offs for AFCAT and CDS exams-

Do not pre-suppose that clearing AFCAT with SSB will clear your path to the Indian Air Force, because apparently the final cut off is quite high, so if your AFCAT score is really high, between 140-180, only then will you be able get into the permanent commission.

However, if you clear the written and SSB in case of CDS, then you'll definitely join any of the forces and get into PC.

Study thoughtfully and try to prepare with determination and an open mind.

This is the question that after schooling or in between schooling student asks many times for the best coaching institute for IIT JEE in Bhubaneswar. It depends on the student either he or she want to do coaching in one place or subject-wise. But in my opinion, coaching at a single institute is good but it totally depends on the students.

I would suggest that Allen Career Institute is the best coaching institute because they have a unique process and have a good strategy of teaching the Aspirants of IIT JEE. The success rate of the institute is 99% which matters a lot. Not only the success rate but the majority of students who secure the rank below the 100 in the list for the JEE Mains and Advance exam are from this coaching institute. It has great efficiency in comparison with the other and also the success rate is very high.

So, in my opinion without any further delay if you really want to take admission in IIT Bhubaneswar you may join this coaching institute.

My cousin qualified for the AFCAT (Air Force Common Admission Test) exam in 2018 into the AFSB which is an acronym for Air Force candidates. Basically, it is just the first step, including the CDSE which is the short form of the Combined Defence Service Exam. So these exams work as a filter in letting the best candidates come to the surface, these then go to the SSB/AFSB. 

Here are some key points on the process-

• Candidates who join the army or navy are termed 'SSB', and those who join the Air Force are called 'AFSB'.
• AFCAT is the exam by and for the Air force when there is a requirement of staff for general duty, technical, flying, logistics, or administration. It is conducted bi-annually in the months of March and August and is the only other mode of entry into the Air force apart from CDSE.
• The process remains the same for all these agencies during the first few days. After clearing the first step, your scores are sent to the headquarters and you'll have to qualify for the PABT test, in case you've chosen the flying branch. Alternatively, you'd have to qualify for a basic knowledge test for the groundwork.
• If you qualify and reach SSB (Service Selection Board), you'll be a participant in another filtration process of which only 80 out of 300 candidates will be selected.

If you wish to become an officer in the three defense forces, you'd have to submit a clearance by SSB or AFSB. If you're selected through the CDSE and NDA, then you'll be given the Permanent commission (PC) and if you have qualified AFCAT, then you'll get selected for Short Service Commission (SSC). Although, sometimes technical and non-technical staff go through the AFCAT only (not through CDSE) and they get through PC.

Note that if you fail PABT, your flying dreams are over, as far as IAF is concerned. So be careful there, you'll need a lot of patience and resilience to go through the process.

One of my friends used to be a student of ACE Academy. According to her, the ACE Academy study materials are unbeatable for the preparation of competitive examinations like GATE or IES. Their test series is also very challenging. 

Before joining ACE Academy, my friend was going through a period, when he didn’t use to concentrate on his studies. Similar to a period, which almost all engineering students go through during their BE/BTech. After joining ACE Academy, he had the opportunity to clear his concept in basics. He ended the course with good command of the subjects. 

Faculty:

• According to my friend, the faculties discuss every minute details of the topic. The teaching methodology employed, is designed by keeping in mind the requirement of the examination. 
• The faculties have years of experience teaching classes for GATE, IES, and PSU. 

Lectures:

The lectures are quite helpful in preparing notes properly. Which are more helpful for preparation as compared to books. 

Join the classes as early as possible. The course is also completed early. You will have plenty of time to self-study and revise for the examination. For GATE or IES coaching, ACE Academy will be best.
