The NID DAT is a two-part exam—a preliminary test with drawing and theory, then a mains with deeper studio work—that decides admission to India's top design institute. But oh, *kongs*, if I could go back, I'd tell my younger self to look beyond the glossy prospectus. I emptied our savings for that course in Ahmedabad, only to return home to Shillong feeling like a stranger in my own skin, my creativity boxed into trends that meant nothing to our hills. The process opens a door, but it doesn't ask if you'll know how to come home.
