Problem-solving, analytical and logical reasoning, language and creativity are the topics which are common in every design entrance exam but in UCEED one needs to focus more on the subjective part that is the drawing. Not only the sketching part or the creativity but one needs to work with visual skills that is to visualise a given 2D figure into 3D and sketch it, for example.
