    1. Hi Kalyan,
      I fear it's not a good idea particularly when it was mentioned in question that you need to use only pencils. But for other design and comic strip type of questions you may use. Let's wait for others answers also.

    1. As per me, It's not important. Even you don't get time for coloring. Main concern should be on appropriate sketching. It's better if you concentrate on simple pencil sketching with good proportions, texture and soon.

      For 50 marks design question, you should aim at great idea rather than great sketch; if both are combined, then it's well and good, if not just concentrate on great idea and give a simple but clear sketch of that. I hope that will do. During my attempt, I gave just rough sketches (3 sketches) - a very simple pencil sketch without even using eraser because of time factor, but I spent time for idea. That helped me get 20 for 50 that helped me clear CEED !

  12. Heey Friends,

    I need some help.
    i have score 24 in part B and 49.5 in part A.
    so my score is total of both or score in part B is the score for filling up the forms of iitBombay.
    where its written that score more than 34 can apply.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Hi,
    Only Part-B score is considered for getting admission. Score of 34 mean, 34 for part-B only, it's not the combination of part-A and part-B.

    2. my earlier comment dated back to 2014 and during that time the admission criteria was like that.
      From this year (CEED'18) they r considering 25% of part A score too (fortunately) for the final evaluation. I've mentioned this in FB too way back, ithink in fb groups. So, go with that.

  14. These are some interview tips that I gave as reply to one of my comment in this blog, Hope this will help you people a little

    " Unfortunately I don't know much about interview pattern (because I never faced design interview anytime before), but the following topics/tips might help you

    1. First of all you should be in a position to clearly communicate/explain your passion for design. Yes, it's true that interview panel firstly check your interest for that stream or overall design. So, its advisable to make some clear lists of following :
    a. Your interest rate
    b. Why you are opting design as career ?
    c. Is that suited for you ? (by explaining your previous design works)
    d. What you can contribute as a designer ?
    e. Any of your future plans

    2. Major part of the questions were expected from your own portfolio. So, it's better if you prepare well on "HOW TO EXPRESS YOUR PORTFOLIO" prepare a list of things to be covered in your explanation and revise the same many times. Anyway your portfolio itself should explain everything !
    3. Next; they might be checking your design ability, so like you prepared for CEED, please do the same preparation (an overview) of the topics, I also expect some General awareness questions. I even heard that they will ask some simple aptitude questions
    4. You should be good at communication and friendly behaviour while at interview.
    5. They may give a design question (or) creative exercise (or) any story writing , so be prepared for it.
    6. You are also advised to get prepared for some hands-on exercises.
    7. Other than the above, please prepare just like you prepare for any other interviews (like software selection) like explanation about yourself, your passions/interests, aims, strengths and so on.

    Finally I would like you to make an overview of
    1. Color patterns, know about famous designs and designers
    2. Sketching (esp. making of strips, stick figures)
    3. Short and quick story making as well as writing
    4. A list of things to be explained.
    5. Most Importantly practice before a mirror by giving all explanations that you prepared, that will definitely help you build your communication and confidence level.

    These are just my views. Hope this helps a bit, that's why I shared here.

  18. I needed some clarification on a type of questions that appears in CEED.
    When they ask to generate 3 concepts of a certain product and then draw the final sketch, what exactly does that mean? Do the "concepts" have to be a version of the final product incorporating different solutions to the problem? Then, does that mean the final sketch is a combination of all these concepts?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hello Ramya,

      Well, you should notice that the actual question is 'generate three DISTINCT concepts BASED ON FACTORS', right ?

      You should have noticed that they also ask us to state some factors (usually 5 factors). According to me, they expect us to generate three separate concepts that could directly relate to your ideas/factors. The above question straightly implies that the concepts should preferably be related to the factors. So,it's always advisable to plan for concepts that would cover all the factors (or at least three !)

      If I were you, I would create two concepts - each holding two factors; and the third one supporting single factor, so that in my final concept, I would be delivering all the 5 factors mentioned.

      Hope this solves your doubt.

  20. Hi.. I would like to know is it late to prepare for ceed and nid... and how many hours do I need to put everyday

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hi,

      It's never late to start for preparation. Most of the aspirants start their preparation before two months and some (students and working people) start even before a month !

      You have nearly four months duration, which is more than enough for better preparation. Regarding your query on 'How many hours', it depends completely on your level of 'design aptitude', I think on an average spending 2 to 3 hours a day will be fine.

      You may check here on how to plan and proceed for preparation - How to Plan, start and prepare for CEED exam

      And all the best, just concentrate on your preparation - everything will turn up positive :)

  21. Hi sir,

    I am an aeronautical engineer and i am very much interested in design.I am good in 3D modelling but when i see sketches in facebook groups i fear because i am not very good in sketching and story writing.Is it necessary to be best sketcher to appear in ceed.

    Next question which branch in design will be best product design,industrial design or any other

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hello Siva,

      Good to hear that you are interested in Design :)
      Well, I've already pointed your query by giving the explanation in many of my earlier blog posts, just to note it's importance.

      It's ABSOLUTELY NOT NECESSARY to be a great/best sketcher and in fact, an average level of sketching is quite more than enough to crack CEED. Last year, I've come across many awesome artist/sketchers whom have really good talent in sketching, but honestly they failed in cracking CEED !

      There are also situations/examples, where people whom are average (or below average !) in sketching cleared in CEED with very good scores. I'm the best example ! CEED is a test to estimate your design and creativity sense and sketching is the next part. So, hopefully the examiners would give higher weight-age to design idea, then only to sketching. If sketching work is that much important, then you should understand that instead of 50 marks design question in the exam, a 50 marks sketching questions should've appeared, but it never happened so. Only 15 marks sketching questions are appearing, don't you agree ?

      Well, but anyway you should be able to communicate your design and your sketch work is required to be
      1. Simple
      2. Proportionate (with size factor)
      and so on.

      Last year I spent; double my time to give good details to the 15 marks questions and it ended up giving very very less marks in the exam, and I gave rough sketch work for the 50 mark design question, and it gave me unexpected (more) marks. That itself proves this. So, please don't get misguided by others extraordinary work. I also recommend you to go through this post that will help you boost your confidence to at least 80% - Afraid of CEED | Big mistakes to avoid during CEED preparation

      Once you complete reading this comment, I would appreciate you if you go through the above link and read it fully for your own benefit. Trust me, this post will help you solve all your doubts !

      You may also go through the common doubts/FAQ's here - CEED exam related doubts answered

      Regarding your next query, I recommend you to target for "Mobility and Vehicle design" instead of any other - product/industrial design. The reason why because you are basically a Aeronautical engineer and I hope you have very good exposure to CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics), dynamics of airfoils etc. Am I right ? I guess I'm right. So, choose the design stream which is more or less related to your already exposed field - in your case, Mobility or automobile design !

      You might be using your CFD techniques to design automobiles or any other vehicle for that matter.

      Hope that helps !
      Am I clear ? If not Please revert for sure. I would be happy to help :)

    2. And yes Siva,

      You need to be somewhat good at Story writing. It's definitely required ! because story writing opens your creativity and whether it appears in CEED or not, I recommend you to develop your story writing capabilities. It's not difficult and in fact you got plenty of time. Just go through comic books like 'Tinkle', 'Chandamama' and similar books. You may also refer to online stories/comics/manga to improve your story framing talent.

      Delete
    3. thank you sir. sure it helps me alot i will improve in the factors you said.But when you said about Mobility and Vehicle design i see that course available only upes and is there any iit providing it if yes can you say it will be useful for me

      Delete
    4. Why only UPES ?

      IITB is also offering M&V Design. Of course NID is also offering automobile design. If you can invest more - in other sense if you have good financial background, then you may go for DYPDC - instead of going for IIT's !

      Check DYPDC details for more information; if you are interested. Here you can check Preferred Institutions and courses for Masters in Design

    1. Phase 2 mean after CEED exam or what ?
      If that is the case, then yes, most institutes conduct a DAT (Design Aptitude Test) and then an interview. Questions would be mostly related to the chosen design stream, may be multiple choice as well as some written attempt. The preparation is mostly similar to that as you prepare for Part-A of CEED exam, except that you don't need to study GA part !

  23. and also m an electronics and telly com engineer but very much interested in designing..I dont have any work experience as I am in third year right now.can u pls tell me during the final interview,do they give priority to those who has some work experience?also is any coaching required for ceed or Nid as an engineering student?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hello Shruti,

      Work experience is not at all a matter in CEED exam, and you should note that there is no age limit for aspirants ! Those having good design skills will be given top preference than those having experience - but with less design skills. So, don't worry and just aim for cracking CEED or NID with good score.

      Well, coaching is mostly not required for those having some idea on sketching and design. Little idea on these; would also allow one to develop them with self practice using proper resource, and if you are a total beginner, say you are to start sketching and design questions from scratch, then coaching might be required !

      Do one thing, take one design question from any CEED previous paper, and try to attempt that full fledged, thinking that you are attempting the exam. After that, just compare your solution and the procedure you did with that of mine (that I updated in this blog). Understand your level and that will definitely help you take a decision - whether to choose any coaching or not. According to me it's not required !

      Hope you got the answers.

      CEED cutoff every year, and I can't give you a clear and confirm picture or numbers related to cut offs. It mainly depends on the number of people attempted, number of students who achieved some average scores and so on. Based on these facts, they will set some limit I guess. Last year for part B, IITB chose 34 as selection marks. For the rest IIT's I'm not sure.

    1. This year, paper seemed to be tough for almost all and so possibly, the cut off's would drop. Each year, CEED exam tries to cover different aspects, that is not covered anywhere in the web, so it's general to note that CEED difficult level is almost the same every year. Except that you should be capable to handle all those, so called new subject questions with ease.
      I don't think there's any difficult for new applicants, once they get familiar with the pits and holes of the exam, then they could be considered equally in knowledge to those who have already gave the exam once or many times. Just analyse the pattern, or learn from this blog and other sources and try to prepare accordingly. That way, any one can crack the exam, doesn't matter whether he/she is new or experienced !

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I have given a basic approach to deal with UCEED in other post comment, just go through the below for now, I will try to cover UCEED topics in my coming posts as soon as I get time.

      "Well, since UCEED is new of its kind and since we don't have any previous papers (so as to analyse the pattern), I cannot give an exact pattern or study process like I gave for M.Des CEED right now. Anyway based on the exam timings (6hrs - 3hr for Part A and 3hr for Part - B, both being of MCQ type) I could say that you need not have to worry about drawing/sketching for now. Although the course demands your sketching and design skills (that you can develop coz this is the right time to do so) but coming to the exam point of view, for now, you need to focus on design and mathematical aptitude with little or more concern towards social initiatives. Better if you go through the following :

      1. Sketching/drawing terms and terminology
      2. Definition and role of diff. design streams
      3. Logo's; visual and illusive picture demonstration
      4. Ability to analyze a given picture and come up with problems or identify creative
      hidden concepts
      5. Mathematical aptitude and Logical reasoning
      6. geometrical picture Reasoning
      7. Pattern identification of geometric 2D images
      8. Puzzles with pictures, numbers and shapes etc

      These are some quick topics that you can concentrate for now. If time permits, I would also try to give a detailed description or so called proceedure to deal with uCEED along with the resources like I did for CEED.

      Hope this helps and I would recommend you to explore the Part A resources and as well as the topics in this page for your initial knowledge, that should give you some idea"

    1. There isn't much writing work needed in ceed, unless they gave story writing or some writing questions. Part A is choice type, only in some Part B section, you need to express in writing. But the medium of instructions should only be in English - if i'm not wrong.

  46. Hi Bhanu,

    First of all thanks for such a wonderfully structured blog to help CEED aspirants. It has eased up the tension of resource gathering a lot.

    Coming to the question.. I am a working person with a 9.5hrs a day job. I have started my preparation for CEED about 2 months back giving an hour or two a day.
    With around 15 days remaining, i have lost my cool and unable to make a focused plan and study.
    I am average at my sketching/painting skills as i practiced it as a hobby.

    Please help me with planning effective study for last 15 days to cover up the GK for Part A and confidence for Part B.

    I can give around 2 hours on weekdays and 6 on weekends.
    Awaiting a response.
    Thanks,
    Shambhavi

    1. According to me, part A can be categorized into 20-30 individual sections based on the topics that I listed in part a resource page, so for anyone starting before 15 days, they need to cover at least two topics per day, as well as take sample tests specific for that covered topics. Intensive sketching at this moment would be time taking and the best option could be to synthesise the design problem and make a rough sketch of your imaginative ides, remember the following imp. points
      1. Imagining is imp
      2. Imagined design shld be creative n workable
      3. u shld be able to illustrate them at any cost
      so, a rough sketch and a mental idea of how u can sketch them would help u without u actually taking part in sketch. By now, you (anyone) shld be skilled at least average level in sketching. So, probably u (anyone) shouldn't feel difficult in implementing ur idea during exam.
      30-45 min for design sketch (try to take two design sketches) n > one hour for part a will help u.
      -> try not to take all design stream ques! consider three to four streams (that u r best at) n try to solve sample questions related to those streams at this pt of time.
      -> don't go for portraits n car sketches at this pt of time (yes, i always keep saying this for ceed students, note the importance!)

      If u have time, u chk my tips n hints in the videos

  47. Hello,
    Can someone give me a little guidance on how to solve the problems which involves creating products out of some given shapes such as discs, cones, cubes, wires etc.
    For example in 2010 there was a similar question and I am not sure how to solve them.
    "Question 5 [10 Marks] You have at your disposal the following five objects – 1 Cone, 3 Discs and 1 flexible Wire as given below.
    Imagine five interesting products made out of a combination of all five objects. You can scale the objects to any size or dimension.
    Represent your ideas with neat sketches, name them along with brief notes (if necessary) in the space provided
    Evaluation criteria: Originality of Ideas"
    I would be really grateful if someone could help me out with this.
    Can we use other objects to join the given objects? Can we assume the objects to be hollow?
    Thank You

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. You cannot use other shapes/objects or even think of making holes in them, u NEED to consider the given scenario as it is. but yes only scaling is allowed, no manipulation!

      You need to think of some ideas using them like say
      1. making of a toy
      2. Women necklace or jewel
      3. Fancy showcase item
      4. paper weight of unique designed shape
      5. A chair/table!

      and so on, these are just a brief n moment splash idea, u could think for some minutes n can create some more creative things using them. To be master in this type of ques, one must have exposure to various DIY creative works from a while! that way one could easily think of ideas within short time, but if it's the first try, it takes time! I don't recommend you people to go thru creative ideas at this time, it is time consuming, even searching for them itself eats your time, This should have done earlier, anyway, some of the links in part A resource page might be helpful.

  48. Thank you for the prompt reply. I still have a doubt though. Forgive me if i am asking a silly question but to make the tables or a jewellery we do have to join the parts right ?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. ya, of course u need to, but assuring that you just need to gather parts in order to make them a useful shape (or assuming that the parts are allowed to stick, tie etc), but hollow shaping of things is not allowed, if allowed for say a cylinder shape, it will take some other form.

      Delete
  49. Sir but the question does not specifically say anything about the structure of the objects given , if that wou the case they would have mentioned it in the question , something like use only solid forms or hollowing of the objects is not allowed. Don't you think sir . ,I think that the only restriction here is to use the three dimensional objects . I am confused sir , please clarify , because most of the things asked in ceed are very clearly specified .

    1. You already got the reply to this question, anyway let me copy that here, so that others would also get to know if they have similar doubt

      "In any story board, comic strips or any animation related story narration, one imp concept is maintaining the same character through out the story, in the sense, they (characters) should look same/identical in every frame with unique identity. Now, what the examiners (for this question) is expecting from you is they wanted u to make three different (looks with diff identity) ways of representing the character. like if say for tiger, tiger1, tiger 2, tiger3 with diff identity, so that if say u make a story with these three tigers, then we could easily recogninze and distinguish between each, so for the human, tiger and sparrow, make three diff characters"

  53. Hi Bhanu! I am Ritu, a ceed aspirant!
    Firstly I would like to thank you creating such a blog to help us so much ceed exam preperation.
    Since there are hardly 5 days left for the exam, Can you give an idea as to howmuch could be the part a cut off for qualification? I mean the process is known,but still if we could get a score number idea it would be helpful.
    Another query was, how much in detail should be the screenshots of questions in interaction design? because i am a little weak in cartooning, i wish to answere the UXI Questions... but do we have to colour them and detail it out?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. hello again Ritu,
      Pl. don't ask me abt cutoff's at this time, discussing abt them is waste, if I say 30 will you going to restrict only for 30 marks ? or if i say 80 and you know only 50 will you be able to get 80? I'm just telling coz don't restrict for cut-off's attempt, as many ques u know or confident to greater extent. Hope u understood.

      Regarding ur UXI query, its not required to color them, - color only if u feel like showing major differences ir highlight some imp part of ur slide etc. Detailing is also not required, but the UXI concepts should be met, It should be simple, easily understandable, navigable. meets all the conditions or requirements of the task to be done (as required by the examiners) in the stipulated frames/slides. You may check the bullet points (listed at the end of the post in the link) for more guide to UXI. All the best Ritu

    1. Great news Feroz, happy for you. Ya u can and in fact u have to apply for IIT. Not in all IITs, otherwsie you will end up with date clashes not deciding which one to take. So, based on your rank, and base on the cutoff mentioned in individual insti webpages, chk the instis that matches to your rank and apply accordingly. Go for more than two but not all. Im not sure whether your rank is accepted in TTB, other than that IITD, IITK and others are better fit.

      DAT is basically stream specific and covers ques related to aptitude (and may be on hands on too). I think prep similar to CEED will be gud, but I doubt whether GA will be asked or not. I think GA is not that imp - just a guess!. Prepare for the remaining, design n apti ques.

  63. Hi Sir, First I would like to thank you for your tireless effort to maintain this very informative blog of yours. It really is helping out the CEED/NID aspirants.

    I belong to ST quota and I scored 50.8 in the DAT test and I got selected for the second and third round but am being a little hesitant for appearing those because I scored just above the cut off marks(47.75) and the fear of failure is just adding to my worries. Also, I made it to the studio tests and interview phase last year but due to low score I wasnt selected for the admission. Do you think I should appear for the next rounds as well?

    Secondly, I am not being able to prepare properly due to lack of materials in my hometown. Specially for the material handling and clay modelling. I have no experience in those and I need some serious lessons in that regard. Can you help out how to gear up for those two exercises?

      money counting machines,
      mobile phones (or say walkie talkies),

    Replies
    1. While both the exams are design based, they do differ in some ways. Let me list some points: course structure, way of approach, applications, career, technology involvement etc.
      As far as I've seen, those students good at sketching and are good fans of artistic approach lands in NID, and those who although have artistic approach in mind, but also want a module which helps i boosting career meeting the design needs ogf the fields choose for CEED. One more observation from me is those who lack (or slow) in mathematical/aptitudal and analytical thinking always prefer NID. I'm not criticizing, but just telling the fact I've interacted, but it has to be noted that they are well versed in terms if creativity, art/paint skills with good knowledge on design field. So, althoguh tough to explain, I can say its a personal choice how one wants to be!
      If I were to be a design student I would prefer CEED as i'm just avg at drawing and application of media, as well as I do need some aptitude in my course/career.
      I hope u haven't checked the appropriate headings of this blog. This whole blog is for design exams only and I've categorized them under separate menus is clearly visible at the top of this page. Eespe. for NID exam, one must do well in drawing esp. object sketching with utmost care on composition/texture/shades/line quality etc. So, sharpen ur drawing skills with simultaneous study on the screening process (aptitude/MCQ/MSQ).

  69. Hi

    i have done my bachelors in architecture and have great interest for furniture design.
    will a masters in industrial design help the cause?

    1. I doubt whether Masters in ID satisfies ur need. ID covers a broad range of topics covering mostly day to day products applicable to industry/commercial point of view. While furniture is a part, but it might not be the sole concern.
      In NID, there's course on furniture Design if im not wrong, why don't u aim for that? ya, give ceed too for safer side!
      Regarding ur portfolio, better if u show both ur works, ur archi works depicts ur previous hold on the subject, and ur furniture works will show ur current interest n capabilities, showing only one might not seems advantage but showing both works fne - I believe. Think!

    1. thing is your answer cannot be short, if they have asked for say 10 marks, then I suppose your story should be not less than 8-10 lines. It cannot be this short, Look into the marking criteria and eloborate or make your story accordingly. Remember, in our college exams we used to give a minimal of 2 line of answer for even 1 mark question. How can you make a story of 1/2 lines for 10 marks questions and your story should be more creative. I would suggets u to chk this story making skills, although it's for images, u can use the words to make one like that

    1. This has happened to many students this year. Few of them called to the CEED organisers and the following is what they got as reply.
      'Regardless of whether a student marked/ticked online and in the mark sheet during the exam or not, evaluation was done for them. Based on the new criteria of 25% part A score and 75% part B score, overall score was evaluated.Based on which if a student cleared the cutoff, he will be updated the result. If a student didn't cleared the cutoff and hadn't marked during the exam, then the status for that student would be shown as 'not attempted''

      This is what they said. I think it's the mistake of portal.

  93. Bhanu sir, this year ceed has proven itself a total fraud. Even their result portal is not showing things in the right way. It is not showing any total marks obtained in part B. What happened to their policy of clearing of Part A then part B will be checked. My question is if one has cleared part A then ceed should show the candidate's marks in both parts separately rather just showing them not qualified and nothing else. I had cleared CEED before and also went to IDC. But this year i am really surprised. On the other hand i got 23rd rank in NID and for CEED i am not qualified. Isn't it ridiculous? I mean what is this. CEED is not a fair game now. They are cheating us.

    1. Hello Feroz,
      I agree with you. And, this is not the first time happening. Even this year, many people have complained that though they had clearwd part A, and attempted all the questions in Part B, the portals says like ‘not attenpted’ Many students called and they were told that they were told that their papers had been verified. But I doubt that they didn’t. In fact, the very pattern of CEED is not correctly screening the students. In my tears of experience, every year I will hear about one or two students who definitely are very good designers already. A guy I know couldn’t clear ceed for two successive years, gave NID and is in NID currently. Right now he has been getting several awards as best designer. In fact, this is same with NID too. These competitive scams are loosing the ability to screen the correct students. Hope, things will sort from the next year.

    1. Non-design background students are very much eligible. Frankly, many of those applying for masters in design are from engineering background. Just that make sure u meet the required eligibility criteria.
