CEED 2025: Result (OUT), Score Card (OUT), Part-A Cut-off Marks (Out), M.Des Admission Schedule

The difficulty level of CEED exam has been maintained by authorities over the years. However, most design aspirants share that if difficulty level of all design entrance exams conducted for PG level courses is compared then CEED is slightly easier than NID Entrance Exam. This is primarily because the drawing questions asked in NID that are considered to be tougher than those put forth in CEED exam.

To determine the qualifying marks for different categories, the following formulas are applied:

• General (Open) Category: Mean+ (Standard Deviation / 2) = 45.48 + (16.98 / 2) = 53.97

• OBC-NCL / EWS: 90% of General cutoff = 0.9 * 53.97 = 48.57

• SC / ST / PwD: 50% of General cutoff = 0.5 * 53.97 = 26.99

If you start solving sample papers late in your exam preparation, you must be able to solve around 10-12 sample papers. However, if you start solving sample papers early on, it is not exactly the quantity that you are focusing on.

For instance, if you complete a chapter and solve all the relevant problems givn in the sample paper, it will also be very effective. And you can repeat this model for other topics as well. The only difference here is you are not solving the entire sample paper in one go in this case. Rather attacking it one chapter or topic at a time.

And once you complete the entire syllabus, you can then attempt the complete sample paper.

You can start solving sample papers for CEED very early on in your exam preparation. For instance, you can do the exercise after completing a chapter. All you have to do is find the relevant questions in the sample papers and start solving. As you move on in your CEED 2024 exam preparation, you the sample papers will be more useful.

The CEED syllabus can be daunting for some candidates. So, if you are not able to complete it, don'tpanic. The trick in these situations is to first focus on the easy topics and complete the first. If you manage that your anxiety levels will automatically come down. Next move on the moderate difficult topics. If you are able to tackle them, you can start working on the difficult ones.
