Hey Prakhar,

Any amount of preparation time is insignificant if at the end of the preparation period, you don't feel conufentc about yourself. So I suggest that you forget about the time and start preparing asap. It will depend on your concepts and previous knowledge.

My best wishes for your future and upcoming exams.

Dear Garima, 

Yes, you are allowed to apply to a maximum of two disciplines for NID DAT. In your case since you wish to apply for both Information Design and Interaction Design, you can fill those. Since, both the disciplines fall under one faculty, you will be required to appear for one domain specific test only. The prospects say: 

For those applying for two disciplines of M.Des., they will be required to appear for: "The CDAT [Common Design Aptitude Test] and ONE domain-specific test if the two disciplines selected falls under same Faculty Stream. The total duration of DAT Prelim will be 2.5 hrs."

Coming to whether you can edit your choices, you may or may not be able to add more choices when the opportunity to edit the application form arise, since certain fields cannot be edited such as DOB, email ID, Category and citizenship cannot be edited. You can try your luck during this editing window. The window to edit the application forms will start from 12 noon on Saturday, 1 December 2018, and will remain open until 12 noon on Tuesday, 4 December 2018. 

With respect to disciplines, the brochure says, "the discipline applied for CANNOT be modified." While you will not be able to modify it might be possible for you to ADD another discipline. 

I also suggest you to write to NID admission cell in the meanwhile. You can send an email to them at admissions@nid.edu

All the best!

NID Aptitude test does not require learned answers it require out-of-the box answers. Make sure that you are regular in newspaper reading, you know the culture, dance forms, artists and different styles of paintings and which era they belong to. All this will be of great help in solving the paper.

here are a few books you can refer to for your preparations:
• Arihant NIFT/NIFD/NID Entrance Exam Self Study Guide
• NIFT/NID Entrance Exams: Ultimate Success Series
• NIFT/NID /IIFT Entrance Exam - Self Study Guide
• NIFT/NID/IIFT Entrance Exam Guide
• NIFT/NID/IIFT Entrance Exam Guide by Surendra
Also you must consider the books named MANORAMA for current affairs and THE BIG BOOK OF BRAIN GAMES for improving creativity.

Along with this you must solve the previous year papers toh get an insight of what type of questions are asked.

Thank You!!
