Most top rankers we know give at least 2 attempts before getting into NIFT Delhi. While preparing for UPSC, Medical or IIT we easily believe that 2 or 3 attempts are required, but as our society judges design and art in a negative way, we often expect good results in 1 attempt, which is really very unfair for the candidate. Choosing to pursue admission at NIFT offers unparalleled opportunities for aspiring young fashion designers, providing access to world-class education, industry exposure, and a vibrant creative environment. With renowned faculty, state-of-the-art facilities, and a network of alumni, NIFT equips students with the skills, knowledge, and connections necessary to excel in the competitive fashion industry, making it a compelling choice for those passionate about pursuing a career in
design.

Yes, Self-study might help you to crack NIFT EXAM, but ask any good ranking niftian and they’ll give you a different answer, as everything in this entrance test is “A GOOD RANK”. How much Rank you score decides everything about your life decisions and education! And for that a coaching from right place is compulsory, as coaching offers insights into exam
patterns, important topics, and effective study strategies, along with regular mock tests that simulate exam like conditions (that change every year). The competitive environment and mentorship further aid in improving performance and hence rank. Just look at Flypen Studio’s website under the ‘gallery’ you will find a lot of student’s work, we are sure some of you may draw upto that level, but can you do that within the time limit that too in a unique way? While self-study is an option, coaching can significantly boost your preparedness and confidence for the highly competitive NIFT entrance exam to make sure you achieve a great rank & secure a good seat. (NOTE- Hardly rank under 50 get the subject of their choice, rest are left to compromise for their whole life)

Determining the “best” coaching for NIFT preparation can depend on individual preferences, such as learning style, budget, and location. Some popular coaching institutes for NIFT preparation include:

1. BRDS (Ahmedabad Branch)
2. Flypen Studio
3. Trendz Academy
4. Arkin Institute
5. AFD India (Academy of Fashion & Design)
6. Silica Institute (Mumbai Branch)
7. AFA (AFA Soars Academy)

If you consider infrastructure and investments, BRDS looks like the biggest brand, if you consider environment and timing liberties Trendz Academy might also be really attractive, but considering teaching methodologies (pattern change test series, knowledge and fun) and teacher value Flypen Studio is definitely the best and most loved institute. Note: Flypen’s owner Krish was AIR 25th in NIFT and also cleared NID in 2011 (No other institute’s owner topped these exams, to keep quality control on their teachers). Flypen Studio being the only institute where the owner teaches and engages personally from last 13 yrs and has a team of only top NID/NIFT faculties. It’s essential to research each coaching institute thoroughly, read reviews, and visiting the coaching centre and attending demo classes. Consider factors such as faculty expertise, study material provided, past result ratio, and teaching methodology before making a decision. Trail class should be the primary way to find out their teaching quality and to understand if the institute’s big promises and big talks are even worth investing ‘one chance that you have got’ and ‘money’ into it.
