UCEED - priority topics from resource posts for last 7 days


Hi,

Just seven days to go and you must be in a crunch just like me :D

Anyway, earlier, I've given the priority list, in this post I will tell which headings of which post/page is required which you can skip saving time as well study the most important topics as per my analysis. Note that this is purely based on my observation and calculations and I wished to share that with you. Please don't blame me if the same pattern didn't appear this time :D

Note that I'm assuming that you can deal with English and verbal questions.

Not wasting your time further,

Notations followed

*** Very Important (recommended)
**   Important
*     Overview
0     Skip

I will give the links to the resource posts that I had shared earlier, followed by the headings in that resource page, with the notation stating whether that need to be studied or skipped. If you didn't understand this, leave a comment so that I will ty to clear further.

  7. Sir, what topics should we prepare on physics and maths which may be applied in uceed?

    1. mensuration is what u can depend the most. Apart from that basics of geometry and trignometry (basic level) are sufficient. Physiscs as such might not be helpful but the general concept is sufficient. But, most important is image based aptitude question.

  10. Hello sir, Thank you for all the help and material but my concern is Part B, I am not being able to understand the logic behind the answers of the Final key of uceed. I am finding it very stressful and difficult. Please help sir. I’d be really obliged if you answer this question sir. Thank You :)

    1. i'm not getting ur doubt. Part B?
      part B as in ceed which is design/subjective type, it isn't for uceed. Practice previous papers very quickly and without feeling tensed. Choose three topics first and clear them by to night or morning. Like some GA topics as in priority list, and puzzling ques (like nonverbal and image aptitude and reasoning). After you complete, take up 3-4 more topics n cover them. Move like this and be quick. No point if u panic. Ur confidence is ur enegry at this time.

Thank You sir.. I would be really obliged if you help me out sir. Tommorow is the exam and I am somewhat concerned.. Thank you sir :)
