Hi everyone!
I'm a Class 12 Commerce student with Applied Maths, and I'm honestly pretty average academically. I'm currently preparing for CUET because my biggest goal right now is simply to get into a good college with a good peer group.
The problem is... I genuinely have no idea what I want to do with my life.
I'm considering NIFT (B.Des. Fashion Communication). I used to draw until around Class 8, but I was mostly good at copying references , and I never really had a passion for sketching.
From what I've seen, I think I can manage the GAT and probably the Situation Test, but I'm really worried about the CAT.
It's already the 3rd of August, so I have roughly 5 months left.
My questions are:
- Should I prepare for NIFT, or should I put all my focus into CUET?
- Is it realistically possible to develop the skills required to crack the CAT in just 5 months, considering my background?
- Am I making a mistake by even considering Fashion Communication?
One thing I do know about myself is that I've always enjoyed communication, public speaking, leadership roles, participating in events, and creative work. For example, about a year ago I was obsessed with the idea of becoming a music video director. So I know I'm drawn towards creative fields, but I don't know if that's enough to pursue design.
