Tips on Solving UPSC Mock Tests
As I have mentioned above, one of the key advantages of solving mock tests is to be able to maintain your focus, accuracy, and speed for the duration of the exams, may it be the Prelims or the Mains.

One thing that you should have adequate practice of, is to sit and take your exams for 2 hours straight in the case of the prelims, and 3 hours straight, in the case of the Mains. For that, solving UPSC mocks will be absolutely imperative.

I have mentioned some very effective tips and tricks that you can keep in mind while solving your UPSC mock test papers:

Tips to solve Mocks:
1. Take your Prelims mock papers sincerely, giving 2 hours each for the GS and CSAT papers. And also, while taking your mock mains papers, take the papers using the official time duration of 3 hours for each.
2. While solving the UPSC mocks make sure to solve your papers with a calm mind. The objective shouldn’t be just to solve it in the given time. You should make sure that your answers are right, and also of good quality (in the case of the mains papers). Therefore, 15 minutes here and there above the given time limit can be considered okay, but remember to not take any more time than that.
3. Once you are done with a mock, do not consider your job done yet, you’d now have to analyze the questions in the mock thoroughly and also the answers you have written for each. That way you’ll be able to identify the concepts that you are weak at.
4. After analyzing a mock answer sheet, do not move over to solving another one without first clearing your weak points.
5. After clearing your weak points, go over to solve another mock, and do the same again, that is identify your weak points again. For this, you can take help from a mentor as well. You do not have to do this alone.
6. Keep repeating this process till the very end.
7. Also, remember to not spend too much time on one question while solving the mocks. Move on to the next question if you are not sure about the answer to the question you are stuck at.
8. If you follow the process I have mentioned in the above points, you will start noticing improvement in your scores within a short span of time.
That concludes the segment of the UPSC mock tests.
