What a free test gives you
- A timed, exam-style paper created by an institute or educator.
- Instant score and your rank among others who attempted it.
- A topic-wise breakdown of correct and incorrect answers.
- A feel for the interface, including navigation and the timer.
Free tests cost nothing to attempt. You pay only if you choose a paid test or series.
Find free tests by exam
Each exam page lists its free tests and explains the pattern: CAT, XAT, MAT, CUET, GATE, CLAT, railway and the other exam hubs under mock tests. The free tests available now are listed below.
How to use a free test well
- Choose one that matches your exam and section.
- Take it timed, in one sitting, with a ceiling per question. See how to attempt a mock test like the real exam.
- Note timing and guesses as you go.
- Review every wrong, guessed and slow question. See how to review incorrect questions.
- Write one change for the next test.
What a free test cannot do
- Cover your whole syllabus: one test samples a few topics.
- Predict your rank: a mock pool differs from the real exam pool.
- Replace full-length practice: stamina needs full papers.
