As NATA and UPSEE 2018 exam date is clashing.which exam i should prefer? shld I register for upsee which is 1.5 hrs after nata gets over.

Hello Madhav,

If you have the option of filling the same city, go for it. There is a 2 hour gap between the two exams. So if the two cetres are in close proximity, you can take both the exams. There will be some inconvenience, as you have to rush from one exam to another, but the way things stand at the moment it is your only way to appear in both exams.

As to which exams you should opt, in case you can't make to both the centres, I would suggest you take into account your level of preparation and where you want to take admission. Remember, NATA is a national-level, as compared to UPSEE - a state-level exam, so competition would be higher. But that being said, a NATA score would open doors for admission in architecture institutes across the country. On the other hand, UPSEE scores are limited to state-institutes.

My suggestion is take a decision with a cool head. If needed, take the advice of a relative or parent, who can help you in these moments.

Best.
