Ask your question related to Architecture Engineering

Architecture field or designing field, which is best for good and valuable career

Hello,

Both architecture and designing offer good careers, but the choice depends on your interests:

Architecture – Best if you enjoy planning buildings, technical drawing, and construction design. It offers long-term stability and good pay but needs a 5-year degree (BArch) and licensing.
Designing – Ideal if you’re creative and prefer fashion, interior, graphic, or UI/UX design. It offers faster career entry and more flexibility.

If you want a technical and structured career, go for architecture.
If you prefer creativity and innovation, choose designing.

Hope it helps.

Hello Hasini,

As of today, September 20, 2025, the Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) has not yet released the official schedule for the AP B.Arch 2025 counselling. However, based on previous years' timelines, here's an estimated schedule:

Registration & Document Verification : Expected to commence in October 2025 .
Web Options Entry : Likely to begin in October 2025 .
Seat Allotment Results : Anticipated in November 2025 .
Reporting to Allotted Colleges : Expected in November 2025 .
Commencement of Classes : Likely to start in December 2025 .

Please note that these dates are based on previous years and are subject to change. I recommend regularly checking the official APSCHE website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, feel free to share your questions with us, and we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.

Please help me my wbjee rank gmr rank 41869 and my category OBC B rank 3689 so I get architecture engineering in jadavpur university and how much free

With a GMR 41869 and OBC-B rank 3689, admission to Architecture at Jadavpur University is quite difficult. JU cutoffs for B.Arch are usually very high, often closing within a few thousand ranks overall, and most seats go to top rankers. As for fees, JU is a government university, so it’s very affordable—around 2,500–5,000 per year, much cheaper than private colleges. You may get Architecture in some private or state colleges, but chances at JU with your rank are very low.

Architecture course ke liye kya criteria hai or kounsa exam dena hoga jaise jee mains nata or extra koi or exam full years fee

For architecture courses, you generally need to complete 10+2 with Maths as a compulsory subject. The main entrance exams are JEE Main Paper 2 and NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture), and you need to clear either of these for admission. Some private colleges also have their own entrance exams. The total fees usually range between 5 to 15 lakhs for the full 5-year course, depending on the college. It’s best to check the specific college website for exact eligibility and fee details.

My state merit rank is 1182 , will i get admission in BNCA Architecture?

With a state merit rank of 1182, your chances for B.N. College of Architecture (BNCA), Pune are quite good, since BNCA usually closes admission for general category around 2000–2200 ranks in state merit through CAP rounds. If you belong to a reserved category, your chances are even stronger. However, competition is higher for the aided division, so you may get a seat in the unaided (self-financed) division more easily.
