Summary

TLDRThis video provides an in-depth guide to the CEED entrance exam, including eligibility criteria, exam pattern, and preparation tips. The CEED exam is a computer-based test with two sections: Part A (objective and numerical answer type questions) and Part B (design, drawing, and writing skills). The video emphasizes the importance of balancing preparation for both parts, offering advice on practicing drawing and sketching, as well as solving puzzles and application-based questions. Additionally, it covers the post-exam process, including studio tests and interviews at various IITs, providing useful insights and resources for prospective candidates.

Takeaways

  • 😀 The CDS exam is a qualifying exam for admission into MDS programs at IITs and IIITs, but passing it does not guarantee admission.
  • 😀 Eligibility for the CDS exam requires a minimum of a 3-year bachelor's degree, but certain IITs may require a 4-year degree or additional qualifications for admission.
  • 😀 The CDS exam consists of two parts: Part A (objective-type questions on visual puzzles, science, math, and reasoning) and Part B (creative drawing and sketching tasks).
  • 😀 Part A has 41 questions and is worth 100 marks, with no negative marking. Part B evaluates your design, drawing, and creative skills, worth 100 marks as well.
  • 😀 The total exam is out of 200 marks, with Part A contributing 25% and Part B contributing 75% to the final score.
  • 😀 The cutoff for Part A typically ranges between 24 to 30 marks out of 100, and candidates must clear this to have their Part B evaluated.
  • 😀 To prepare for the exam, students with prior sketching experience may require 2-3 months of dedicated preparation, while others may need 5-6 months.
  • 😀 It's crucial to balance preparation for both Parts A and B of the exam. Part A requires practice in solving objective-based reasoning and math questions, while Part B requires sketching and drawing practice.
  • 😀 Feedback on sketches and practicing previous year questions will help improve performance in Part B and better understand the types of tasks asked in the studio tests and interviews.
  • 😀 After clearing the exam and the cutoff, candidates will be invited to attend studio tests and interviews at the IITs based on their ranks and design portfolios.
  • 😀 Each IIT conducts its own studio test and interview, and while they may vary in difficulty, they usually are not overly difficult. Candidates should showcase their previous work and creativity.
