Tests are taken once a week, assessed and feedback provided within the week, so students can improve their attempt in next week’s test. This helps students reach 100% confidence by the time of their exam.

Spl Coaching for Other Design Schools
(MIT, SRISHTI, SID, DSK)

Other design schools like MIT, SRISHTI, SID, DSK have their own entrance exams which are largely based on NID’s entrance exam but have subtle differences. This special coaching, conducted just before these entrance exams, focuses on these differences and equips students to handle them successfully. SILICA students astounding success at MIT, SRISHTI, SID and DSK exams is testament to effectiveness of these workshops.
