Experts at SILICA have compiled modules in a way in which it includes all subjects of importance in the entrance examinations. The three books on general aptitude tests helps a candidate be thoroughly prepared for what is to be expected during the entrance exams.

The five books and drawing and design foundation help to clear the basics for students regarding drawing and design. It helps the students to perceive differently and have a greater understanding of the different design problems.

Apart from this, there are two books on mathematics that cover the Maths part of the entrance exams. These are comprehensive books covering all problems and questions that may be asked during the actual exam. This is what we provide in addition to guidance given in our Lucknow centre .

There are many aspects of SILICA that distinguish it from other coaching centres for design. Unlike majority coaching centres that rely on a general aptitude test spanning over varied topics like verbal reasoning, logical reasoning, spatial ability, abstract reasoning, mechanical reasoning and verbal reasoning, SILICA’s aptitude test is more pin pointed. It has been crafted by the experts to test the design aptitude of the candidates appearing for the entrance exams. The aptitude test includes a 10 minutes’ Creativity Quotient Test (CQT) and a 110 minutes’ Design Aptitude Test (DAT).

The coaching techniques at SILICA are full-fledged. At SILICA, we believe learning is a collaborative process where the teachers, co-ordinators and the parents co-operate to bring out the best in the candidate. The parents are kept up-to-date with the progress of their children. The parents get to track the performance of their children and also keep track of attendance and other factors. The coaching centre also goes for a bi-monthly feedback so that they can improve their performance.

The mock tests at SILICA are designed to resemble the actual entrance exam as far as possible. The UCEED mock tests help the students to understand and assess where they stand. SILICA also makes the best of the online media to communicate with the students and to share knowledge. SILICA launches design quizzes and design contests that make design a fun subject for the students.

The staff at SILICA belong to the designing fraternity and they share their knowledge and experience to help the candidates through the entrance exams. The competition is high and only the best candidates get shortlisted to IITs and IISc. We hone students to make sure they live up to the mark.
