On Question asked by student community
You can access the free mock test series for the UCEED 2026 exam directly through the provided link. Taking mock tests is the single most critical step for UCEED preparation, as the exam is highly focused on aptitude, visualization, and analytical skills, rather than textbook knowledge. Consistent practice with these mock tests will help you: (1) Understand the Complex Pattern: Get familiar with the Part A (Aptitude) sections, including Numerical Answer Type (NAT) and Multiple Select Questions (MSQ). (2) Improve Speed and Time Management: UCEED is time-intensive, and mock tests help you learn to allocate time effectively between the diverse question types (Visualisation, Spatial Reasoning, Communication, etc.). (3) Practice Sketching (for Part B): While Part A is computerized, practicing the simulated Part B (Drawing/Sketching) challenges will sharpen your creative skills needed for a high score.

Hello,
For admission to Ajeenkya D.Y. Patil University (ADYPU), you must score a minimum of 50% in your 12th grade for the general category. However, ADYPU conducts its own entrance exam, known as the ACET ADYPU Common Entrance Exam, which includes a studio test and a personal interview. So, you would have a chance for admission based on how well you score in the entrance exam.
Hope it helps!!!
