Drawing Test Practice Questions for UCEED 2027

UCEED 2027 question paper structure, navigation, marking, and answering process. Shiksha has collected some sample drawing test practice questions for UCEED 2027 candidates.

Sample Question 1

Imagine seated in a side lower berth of 2nd AC compartment of Indian railways and observing the opposite side berths, i.e. upper and lower berths (total four berths). Sketch the illustration that combines the railway windows, berths, AC, lights, one person sitting or sleeping on the berth, center stands, water bottle with holders and charging ports.

Sample Question 2

Imagine and visualize a topic with the things mentioned below. Also, once done, draw it. 

List of Objects

  • A young boy opening the fridge
  • The fridge is partially opened
  • Draw a cooking stove/ gas stove, including kitchen tools.

Sample Question 3

You are sitting in a well-ventilated drawing room. It is 9 in the morning, and the sunlight is streaming through the window in the East, casting shadows on the floor. A cat is resting on one of the sunlit patches. A newspaper is placed beside a cup of hot tea on a small side table. There are three freshly watered potted plants in the room; one on the floor and two on the window sill with the watering jug next to it. From the above description, sketch the scene from your point of view.

Sample Question 4

Prof. Shastri was checking maths papers when she got a call from her husband. Mr. Shastri was upset that she forgot the diet lunch box that he had specially prepared for her. He was also annoyed that she left the dining table in a mess with all her papers and books piled up. He further accused her of cheating on her diet by eating canteen Pakoras and Aloo Parathas for lunch. Prof. Shastri tried to pacify him by saying that she had been working since morning as she needed to finish checking papers and writing her research proposal by 5 pm that evening. She even had a headache from skipping lunch. Mr. Shastri was not convinced and reminded her that she hadn’t even read the diet book he had sent and was probably using it as a paperweight in her office. He concluded that she wasn’t serious about her health and proceeded to declare that he will not be cooking for her from then on. Prof. Shastri hung up the phone and, in frustration, ordered her fifth cup of tea from the canteen and her second plate of Pakoras. From the above description, sketch Prof. Shastri’s desk from her usual point of view.

Note: Make pencil sketches only. Do not use colors, and do not draw Prof. Shastri.

Sample Question 5

You are three cm tall inside a 5-storey mall. You are standing on the Groundfloor looking at the First floor. Many people are shopping for clothes, some people are standing on the grill, and the other crowds moving up & down towards the colorful displays. Make a freehand perspective drawing of this setup, showing all the above elements.

Commonly asked questions
Q:   What is the best time to take UCEED mock tests?
A: 

The official mock tests are meant to be taken in the last few weeks before the UCEED exam. So, you shouldn't typically take mock tests at the start or even the middle of your UCEED exam preparation. The logic is that mock tests are not designed to help you improve your problem-solving ability or your time-management skills. In fact, mock tests are meant to help you get an exam-like ambience before the exam and understand what it is like to be inside the exam centre. 

 

Q:   If I take only mock tests of UCEED, is it enough to get a good score in the design entrance exam?
A: 

Mock tests are useful only when you take them closer to the exam. They are also by no means an integral part of one’s exam preparation in the early stages. When you are starting off your preparation and reach until the mid stage, all you need are test books, sample papers, and the notes you have taken. Once you have mastered the concepts and honed your problem-solving skills sufficiently, you can take the mock test. The mock tests at this stage will help you get acquainted with the exam process, especially the exam environment.

Q:   What is the process to take mock tests for UCEED?
A: 

If IIT Bombay conducts any mock tests for UCEED exam, it will be hosted online at uceed.iitb.ac.in. So, to take mock tests, candidate will have to go to the UCEED - IIT Bombay admission portal and click on mock test link. 

On clicking on the mock test link, a log-in window will open. The login ID will likely be prefilled. So, all you need to do is click on the log-in button to access the mock tests. After logging in, click on the “Start” tab to start the mock test.

Q:   What do I need to know about the UCEED question paper?
A: 

The UCEED question paper will be of 3 hours and include two parts - The computer-based Part A and the offline-based Part B. It is mandatory for candidates to appear in both the paper. Also, Part B paper answer booklets will only be evaluated if the candidate qualifies Part A. IIT Bombay will release the cut-off marks for Part A before the declaration of results.
