'Sir, ye Rank 1 aya hai, ye All India Rank hai kya?'
That's what Manya asked us after sending a screenshot of her UCEED result.

And our response was -
'Yes, it is you silly! Celebrate!'

From my experience, I can say that this place, the faculty is as concerned as you, for getting into your dream college. The dedication and effort teachers put in here are beyond words. The guidance and support I received throughout is so emotional, that I feel blessed to find an institute like this. Sanjay sir, you are the best, I really thank you for all the efforts you put in. My IDC happened all because of you. Thank you so much for everything ♥️

I'm thrilled to share that I recently cleared the entrance exam for the National Institute of Design (NID) with an AIR 6, a goal I've been working towards for a long time. 🎉 I'm grateful for Sanjay's guidance and support throughout this process. Additionally, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the Designex Studio online course. The knowledge and skills I gained from this course were instrumental in my preparation and success.

I got to know about Designex studio while browsing through Instagram and it was one of the best decisions I made regarding my design preparation. :) Really helpful guidance was provided by Ashish sir and Sanjay sir. The tests are on point and updated with regard to the latest pattern. Highly recommended for design aspirants, not just for preparation but also for expanding your knowledge ofthe design field.
Disha Sahu | Senior Designer, Samsung
A BIG THANK YOU to Sanjay sir and Ashish sir! I couldn't have asked for better guidance throughout my preparation at all! Even during the COVID situation, the classes online were held so regularly. We have many mock interviews as well before sitting for the actual one which was great to boost up our confidence. We were guided not just to solve, but to approach the question in a variety of unconventional ways. The online test series were so helpful to widen our thinking and look at the pattern that a question may follow, in order to solve similar questions in future. All in all, we were literally prepared for Any pattern of questions that may come! I am absolutely glad that I got my guidance from Designex and the commendable faculties that come from the torch-bearing institutions of India and have immense experience in the field! Once again, THANK YOU Designex for going a mile ahead in order to prepare us! ♥️

The online study material is very very helpful. It has everything from basic math to difficult aptitude questions. So many detailed modules are provided and it helped me improve my weak areas drastically. Both the quantity and quality were great. The mock test bundle is a score booster, it pushed me to work harder towards my goal. The teachers are extremely supportive, they motivate us from time to time and give us tips and tricks to crack the design exams. They are always there for us, clearing our doubts and teaching a concept repeatedly until we understand it. They are very hardworking. I eagerly waited to attend the classes as we studied various topics that strengthened both creativity and aptitude. Teachers make it more interesting for us. I connected with many design aspirants for Undergraduate and Postgraduate exams, each sincerely working towards getting into the design field. We share our ideas and solutions with each other and that benefits all of us. A very big Thank You!

At Designex my learning happened through an online platform which was really user-friendly and resourceful. Since I was part of their online classroom, I can say that even in a virtual forum Designex was supportive and actively kept tabs on their students' performance. With respect to UCEED, their online platform is so similar to the platform used in the actual UCEED exam; also, the study material is well-researched and smartly curated. Getting a rank of somewhere in the sixties in DAT was a collaborative effort between me and my mentors at Designex. Their small mentor-student ratio for their online classes was helpful to me and according to me can be to you as well.

I'll be frank about this. I chose Designex after going through an endless number of other 'coaching institutes'. Most of them were either not responding anymore because of the pandemic situation and few were pretty new to online coaching and were under-prepared. I decided on Designex finally because of the quick and proper response from the team. They explained to me all the different types of courses/packages they were offering, and what each package gave me in terms of practice papers, study materials, and video classes along with online sessions. The team has always been very supportive, professional and caring towards each and every student in the study group and showed genuine interest in getting each of us across all the challenges that lay before us. The faculty being one of the most eminent designers in the country, pushed us towards achieving every goal we had and breaking any fear or doubt we had about the exams. I don't know what I would have done if I had not come across Designex at the right time. They believed in us and that's what good teachers do. Designex is not another 'coaching institute' or a business for that matter, but a community of teachers, industry experts, design enthusiasts and most of all students who love design. Don't judge this super transparent and listening team by negative reviews posted by really suspicious users. Even I have had confusion regarding the courses or materials I was entitled to receive for what I paid for (very low rates if you really wanna compare), but nothing that could not be solved via a small WhatsApp message with the team. Extremely satisfied, thankful and grateful for Designex. I've already suggested the team to many of my friends and juniors. Kudos to Ashish sir, Sanjay sir and the team for this wonderful thing you're doing for the young aspirants.

My experience of learning with Designex Studio has been great. Design education in India is still not that popular and aspirants like me go through a lot of struggle in finding adequate study materials by drilling through the internet. I took a year drop after my 10+2 during which I tried and took classes from different institutes and mentors, and out of all Designex studio's Test series were really helpful to me in my preparations for UCEED, NID and NIFT. I came to know about Designex studio barely 2 months prior to NID prelims, so I got myself enrolled for their test series only. The feedback and discussions related to confusion and doubts over several questions with fellow mates and mentors helped me along with my preparations. The quality of Questions in Designex studio's Test series is the best as per my knowledge and experience with other institutes which basically repeat the previous year's question papers. Talking about the mentors, they themselves are Designers with qualifications from reputed Design institutes of India as well as abroad which is evident in their way of teaching and knowledge sharing. We need good Designers to contribute towards national development, and I hope Designex studio will be helping the upcoming aspirants and designers in their preparation for their Quality education.

I'm a Design Aspirant and over here I found the best Question papers, Study Material and Expert Help to help me Clear the entrance exam with good rank in both UCEED and NID. The Faculty is really experienced and supportive in addressing our problems, concerns and doubts very sportingly and helped us till the end. Additional help was also given to me while working on the studio round of NID. I'd highly recommend this institution for UCEED and NID preparation.. because instead of making us mug up the chapters, sir make efforts to sit with us and exchange points of view which sure will help us be better designers in future. Thanks for the help, the time with you was amazing.

Swathi Ingalagi
Great faculty and study material! I have tried mock tests of other studios but Designex's questions were really similar to that of CEED 2021. Would strongly recommend it to everyone.
Yash Vardhan
It was very helpful to take up the course provided by Designex. It was exactly what I needed, Ashish Sir and Sanjay Sir not only guided us but also focused on our weaknesses and gave us appropriate solutions. The Course structure is well prepared which covers the important aspects of the syllabus and Doubt sessions include interactions among everyone.
