Once you have achieved a satisfactory standard at pencil sketching try understand the color wheel. understand which colors look better in combination with others. which colors are visually more pleasing.

Keep practicing pencil and colors on paper everyday. till you get better.

For online aptitude tests questions asked are mostly from Logic and Reasoning, Visual Aptitude and general information and knowledge on Architecture History and current affairs. Try to find out more and more on current architecture. History is also important.
