RUBIKA Entrance Exam Preparatory Class Tips
THE ENTRANCE EXAM
The entrance exam takes place over one day with written tests:
- An observation drawing test (still-life).
- An imaginative drawing test
A 20 minutes individual interview will be conducted by the pedagogical director or one of the speakers from the preparatory class. During this interview, the candidate will have to explain his/her motivations to follow a basic training in graphic arts, his/her cultural knowledge, interests, hobbies, etc. In addition, the candidate may present personal works in the form of a book, so that we can get an idea of his/her methodology, existing (or less existing) graphic education and stylistic exploration.
