How to prepare
- 1Practise in three timed blocks of 20 minutes each, matching the sectional time limit. Work on one section at a time so you become comfortable switching when each block ends.
- 2In Quantitative Aptitude, build speed with regular calculation drills and practise data interpretation alongside arithmetic. Track the time spent on each question and review any calculation errors.
- 3For Reasoning Ability, practise puzzles and seating arrangements systematically: write down the clues, make a clear table or diagram, and avoid guessing when the conditions do not fit.
- 4Improve English Language through daily reading and short practice sets on comprehension, cloze tests and error spotting. Review why each incorrect option is wrong, not just why the answer is right.
- 5Use full-length mocks to practise attempting 30 English, 35 Quantitative Aptitude and 35 Reasoning Ability questions within their respective 20-minute blocks. With 0.25 marks deducted for a wrong answer, make educated attempts and review both accuracy and skipped questions.
Sample questions with answers
Practice questions written by AI. Each answer was checked by a second, independent solve.
1. Choose the part of the sentence that contains an error: “Neither the manager / nor the employees / was willing to delay / the meeting.”
- ANeither the manager
- Bnor the employees
- Cwas willing to delay
- Dthe meeting
Show answer
Answer: C. was willing to delay. With “neither…nor,” the verb agrees with the nearer subject. “Employees” is plural, so the verb should be “were willing to delay.”
2. A shopkeeper marks an item 25% above its cost price and gives a discount of 10% on the marked price. What is the profit percentage?
- A10%
- B12.5%
- C15%
- D17.5%
Show answer
Answer: B. 12.5%. If the cost price is 100, the marked price is 125. After a 10% discount, the selling price is 112.5, giving a profit of 12.5%.
3. In a group of 40 students, 24 study English, 18 study Hindi, and 10 study both. How many students study neither English nor Hindi?
- A6
- B8
- C10
- D12
Show answer
Answer: B. 8. The number studying at least one language is 24 + 18 − 10 = 32. Therefore, 40 − 32 = 8 students study neither language.

Start with the clues that give definite information and record them in a table or diagram. Practise different puzzle formats, then check whether every clue is satisfied before choosing an answer.
How should I review a mock test?
Review incorrect answers, guesses and questions you left unanswered. Note the reason for each mistake, such as a concept gap, a rushed calculation or poor time allocation, and use that list to plan your next practice session.
