The best strategy to clear Prelims: Practise Mock Exams in a timed environment with negative marking

Practising mock exams in a timed environment with negative marking is a hundred times more effective than reading MCQs from PDFs or Photostats. Only when you take proper practice, you will realise the mistakes you make in an exam environment.

All the test results and detailed solutions of ClearIAS Prelims Online Mock Exams are available online, in each user account, for further review. While detailed solutions are easily available for ready reference, the print or PDF option (offline) or re-take of exams are not enabled in the ClearIAS Prelims Test Series. This is because of 3 reasons – all for the benefit of serious users like you.

1. To get the most accurate relative performance reports and all-India ranking (by avoiding multiple submissions).
2. To keep our questions, in a closed loop.
3. To ensure that candidates take each mock exam seriously, and practice in a timed environment with negative marking, to avoid mistakes in the exam hall.

After taking an exam, just go to the ‘My Account’ link (‘Completed Exams’ ⇒ Details ⇒ View) and revise the mock test as many times as you want, until the next Prelims. Our approach (which combines online practice and online revision) has created so many toppers. All the best!
