Dear all design aspirants,
You must have read many success stories in Teacup alone. All
are basically the same. So I am not going to repeat it. I choose design
over engineering simply because it gives more freedom and flexibility.
I want to give some little interview tips. This is not my
success story, but my experience.
I was nervous while attending IITB transportation interview
(though the studio test was simple for all) and I failed.
Then it was IISc.. There were no studio test, only some
technical ( +2 maths), objective & subjective stuff along with a Qn to draw
Mahindra Reva ( Picture was given). I did it well, and it gave me a
little confidence. The interview was like testing my industrial
knowledge. I failed to answer many of their Qns properly. I had good ideas but
they were not complete and I failed to consider all possible situations. But
soon it became like an interactive group chat. They taught me many things there
itself. They laughed on my funny attitude, me too. I was never nervous and I
had ask them to stop laughing and let me go ( obviously I was smiling
while saying that).
Finally I was in. Class started at IISc. The guy mainly
interviewed me is a legend in the dept. And later I realized that I
was in only because I made them entertaining through out my interview and not
because of the test in which I performed well.
Regards,
Jithin

Hey jithin :-) congo for ur success bro. Good to read ur concise story but can u please explain me that what kind of Math +12 questions they had given you in ur studio test.
Is it necessary to carry a portfolio? I haven't made anything yet and I don't have much time for my DAT at IISc, Please suggest me.
Hi Rahul,
A portfolio shows how well you think, what are your key skills and how good is your presentation. It is needed to improve your chances of selection at IISc. If you dont have much time, you can compile your sketches done for CEED practice and maybe a few photographs of your works in the past. You dont need seperate prep for DAT since it is quite similar to CEED.
All the best :)
is our rank has any relation with selection criteria?
I got AIR 158th 2016. is it beneficial to me?
I have read many people failing in IITB interviews. I want to get an idea about the questions they ask. Can you please list them for us if you can recall?
it'll help a lot.
Thank you.
