CEED - While @ Exam

What's tested in CEED from the aspirants

This is what is tested in CEED, just a guideline not a bible or exam paper format. As you would see there is no definite answer for any of these questions it in addition to solution following does equally matter

What matters
1. Impression - overall impression (assume your paper like a business presentation asking 1 million dollar so you need to create best impression possible)
2. Presentation (avoid shabby paper work)
3. Structure of information
4. Though process – how did you come to it…
5. Any innovative way of presenting your paper
6. Consistency
7. Highlighting the USPs in your solutions
8. Creativity in answers and presentation - Remember pictures talk more but if you are not a good drawing expert better write in some creative way!..
9. Ability to think out of the box – Avoid general answers… the questions here are asked to get how your mind can think out of the box than the average person’s thinking. Thumb rule could be – if 2 of your friends can think the same about something it may not fly… but in some cases you may want to think what people think so better be cautious or awake answering them…
