Solve sample papers- Students are advised to refer to some of the previous year question papers and mock tests of the UCEED entrance test, at-least of the previous 10 years and practice them as much as they can.

The Common Entrance Examination for Design (CEED) is a joint entrance exam for post-graduate studies in the field of technological design held annually jointly at all IITs and Indian Institute of Science (IISc).
Uceed and Aieed both are exams that are required for admission.
Whereas NID and IICD both are Institute and comparing these two NID is better. And for exam you have to check the institute.
Hope this helps!!!
