Today's set

Five geology questions and five from the news, every morning. Free, no sign-in, ten minutes.

Most test series are written by content teams. Shila is written by a geologist. Every question is checked like a research paper, and every mock follows the exact pattern of your exam.

Exam Hall

Meet the exam hall that lives in your browser.

Every mock opens on a screen modelled on the real computer-based test. By exam day, nothing on that screen will be new to you.

A countdown you can feel.

The same timer in the same place, submitting automatically at zero. Learn to pace yourself the way you will on the day.

The palette, colour for colour.

Not visited, not answered, answered, marked for review. Learn the screen now so it never distracts you later.

MCQ, MSQ and NAT.

Numerical answers go in through an on-screen keypad, just as they will in the exam hall.

A scientific calculator, built in.

You can't take your own calculator into GATE, so practise with an on-screen one from day one.

Then, the whole picture.

Score, negative marks, your weakest topics and time on every question, the moment you submit.

Built for exam day

Everything the exam has.
Plus the report it never gives you.

Negative marking

Marked the way the exam marks you.

Wrong 1-mark MCQs cost a third of a mark and wrong 2-mark MCQs cost two-thirds. MSQ and NAT never cost you marks.

Question types

Three question types. One familiar screen.

MCQOne correct option
MSQOne or more correct
NATType a number

Calculator

Scientific, on screen.

Strict mode

Leave the window and the test hides itself.

Every exit is recorded in your report, just as a proctored hall would notice.
