Schedule for UPSC CSE Prelims 2023 Mock Test Series - Notes | Study Mock Test Series for UPSC CSE Prelims - UPSC

“Mock tests help me evaluate my knowledge-wise and help me eliminate the options that are not known to me. The more you practice, the better clarity you can get on any topic.” - Nidhi Siwach - IAS 2018

Our team has mentored thousands of students in the last 3-years, including Anudeep Durishetty AIR 1 UPSC CSE 2017, Monica Kishore AIR 41 UPSC CSE 2018, Swati Sharma AIR 18 UPSC CSE 2019, and one thing that was common among all the toppers is the strategy that they had to prepare for the exam. So, keeping that in mind, we've curated this Mock Test Series considering the latest events and weightage of different topics as per the recent exam trends. 

What is a mock test, and why do we need it?

A mock test is a practice test that can help you evaluate the knowledge that you have gained in your preparation. While knowledge can be developed by reading standard books, the latter are problem-solving skills, elimination skills, and decision-making with practicing previous year papers and solving high-quality mock test papers. 

How many tests are included in the mock test series?

  1. 28 Subject wise tests (50 questions each)
  2. 20 Full-Length GS Mock tests (100 questions)
  3. 10 Full-Length CSAT mock tests(80 questions)

EduRev Tip: Since 2015, the CSAT paper was made to be a qualifying paper, but the questions being asked are becoming difficult year by year. Though qualifying in nature, we suggest you attempt these 15 tests to be ahead of the others.

Note: All the tests will be covering the entire syllabus mentioned in the UPSC Civil Services Examination preliminary examination notification.

Details about each section of UPSC CSE Prelims Mock Test Series:

Section 1: 28 subject-wise tests are specially designed in correlation with Current affairs following the recent trend of questions asked in the UPSC Civil service preliminary exam.
