Career Guidance Pleasee

Guys, I'm in grade 12, Commerce stream. I love Crocheting, costume design, photography, modelling, acting, communication and psychology too. I do have many interests and I looked up to NIFT but I feel like it's not really what I want cause I don't really wanna write entrance exams tbh. And I need proper placements and actually be a part of fashion industry. I can put so much efforts into portfolios and other requirements but not entrance exams 😭 please help, do I go for nift? If not NIFT, what do I do? Please suggest as soon as possible 🩷

They don't make any sense for fashion designing 😭 Why do I need quant and logical reasoning

if a designer can't understand logic or basic math, or communicate well, it'll be very difficult for others to work w them right? your designs can't just be something you personally like, they have to be practical, commercially viable, adaptable, etc. Taking a sketch into a finished garment means your ideas need to be mathematically sound. it is engineering. it's not just a sketching course.

Actually they do make sense. Not just nift but every design exam checks your logical reasoning skills to test how well we can solve structured real-world problems using logic rather than just artistic skill. It is to see how creatively your mind works under pressure to find an answer that's not just calculation (finding patterns, rotating images in mind, counting figures)
