UCEED 2021 FAQ's:
Q: Are there any books that I can study to prepare for UCEED?
A: UCEED is a design aptitude test. Aptitude tests assume that individuals have inherent strengths and weaknesses, and are naturally inclined toward success or failure in certain areas based on their inherent characteristics. Except for the syllabus section 'Environmental and social awareness' which will test your general awareness of the topics outlined under it, the remaining five sections will test your aptitude. Consequently, there are no text or reference books that we can recommend.
