NATA Syllabus 2025 changed for Part A. Council of Architecture (CoA) sets the syllabus for NATA Exam. The exam takes place in two parts i.e Part A which consists of the General Aptitude and Mathematics Test and Part B is a Drawing Test. The syllabus generally does not change year by year but modification is done in the chapters and topics. Hence the B.Arch entrance syllabus through NATA is from Mathematics, General Aptitude and Drawing. The syllabus helps the candidates to be familiar with the topics which are going to be cover in the exam. Candidates must plan in such a way that they can prepare in a precise manner such that they would be able to cover the syllabus on time. Since it is a national level exam, it is expected that the question level would be moderate. Candidates must have the NATA 2025 syllabus download pdf in order to prepare for the exam.

The Part-A Test (Drawing Test) will not be a paper-based drawing test but as a preferential choice type test which is to be answered on a computer/laptop. The syllabus for Part-A Drawing Test has also been revised and is as under:
“Understanding the important visual principles in a composition (2D OR 3D) such as balance, rhythm, direction, hierarchy, etc. Understanding geometry and the ability to visualize shape and solve geometrical puzzles to test spatial intelligence; Understanding color theory and the various terminologies to test color scheme awareness and knowledge; Visual system interpretation and perception to test graphical similarities and other properties; Ability to understand the spatial relationship between objects, and to visualize images and scenarios; Tests for cognitive ability: perception, attention, recognition, memory, etc.”

Importance of NATA Syllabus 2025
The syllabus for B.Arch is a little bit different from engineering. In this drawing, the section is added up.
- It helps the candidates to be well acquainted with the topics and chapters.
- NATA drawing questions are comparatively difficult than JEE exams. In NATA exams 3D drawing questions would be a little difficult to attend, it requires a lot of practice & dedication to prove yourself in the exams. Thus a syllabus helps them to practice in such a way that the candidates can make anything that is asked in the exam.
