Here I need some suggestions from you.I know i am well at sketching but i can't fix a discipline.I like graphic designing ...so i can apply for it at NID and if i will apply for IDC or IISC through CEED then there is no such options as per my knowledge...So as a brother..:) if you can tell me what should be our approach to choose a stream.???
May be we can apply for any stream but in interview panel we have to answer them.
Hope i can clear the matter to you.....

sir I have cleared NID 2015 but my waiting list in obc category is 3 so is it possible to get NID or is there any equivalent according to my result
please give suggestion.
thanks sir..it was great..i'm doing btech in electronics and communication, this is my last semester. I do sketch and want to excel in this creative field. my friend suggested me to give ceed exam..i don't know much about it..sir can you suggest me what should I do...thanks.
Hi shadesofgreysite,
After going through your wordpress blog, i realized that you truely can sketch well, but they are more of works of art, and do not communicate solution to problems such as visiting cards, logos or posters. First thing, i would suggest you to get a feel of how CEED paper is, by going through previous years papers, which are available on IITB site. This will put you in perspective on what to expect in CEED. Perhaps while solving the paper you will realize that you can solve certain questions easily than others. Hence this would clear out what branch is good for you :)
All the best
okay thankyou sir..:)
