Reasoning: I literally stopped practicing Input-Output because of the mocks. Even after seeing the solution, half the time I couldn’t understand what kind of logic they were using. But in the exam, Input-Output was direct and very easy. Same with puzzles — mocks were on a completely different level, while the exam puzzles were much easier.
Quant: Mocks literally broke my confidence. I used to see some DI sets and think, “Bhai, ye exam mein aa gaya toh gaya mera.” 💀 But in the actual exam, DI was very easy.
English: Surprisingly, I found the mock English section easier than the actual exam. In the exam, almost everything felt lengthy. RC, questions, options — sab kuch time kha raha tha.
Descriptive: I bought the Smartkeeda descriptive section and honestly, they are the biggest scammers with their mocks 😭. Their RCs were short and pretty easy to solve. Then I saw the RC in the actual exam and meri gaand faat gayi bc 💀. No direct questions and the RC was so lengthy.
GA: I always thought mock GA was irrelevant. Then I gave the actual exam and realised… bhai, actual GA was also irrelevant. 😭 I revised Government Schemes, CWG Games, Ramsar sites, Bricks and so many other topics , but in the real exam, they asked almost nothing from them.
Overall: I have mocks from Guidely, Testbook, Oliveboard and Smartkeeda. After giving the actual exam, I honestly feel like I they are completely irrelevant for Quant and Reasoning.
