Hello Anushka

It's good that you do not go for coaching, you want to know about the required drawing materials for the exam, so which exam are you referring engineering drawing, or a fine arts-related exam, NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture), or UCEED?

Essential Drawing Tools:

Pencils (HB, 2B, 4B, 6B) – for shading and sketching

Eraser (soft) – for clean erasing

Sharpener

Black ballpoint or gel pen – if line drawing is asked

Ruler / Scale (30 cm) – for geometric accuracy

Compass and Protractor – for technical drawing (if allowed)

Color Pencils or Watercolors – some exams allow limited color use

Brushes and palette – only if watercolors are allowed

Set squares / French curves – for precision in curves (rarely needed unless specified)

Drawing board or clipboard – to support your sheet (if exam desks are not flat)
