Shishya's practice paper

One full paper of 150 questions in 180 minutes, in the official sections and counts (General Science; History, Polity and Geography of India; General Knowledge and current affairs 38, Geography, History, Culture and Polity of Rajasthan 30, General English and Hindi 22, Mental Ability and Reasoning, Basic Numerical Efficiency 45, Basic Computer 15). The questions are Shishya's own practice questions — drafted with AI, then read and answer-checked in review — not questions from any past Rajasthan Patwari paper. The subject tests and topic quizzes on this page use the same questions.

  • On the real OMR sheet every question has a fifth circle, E, for 'not attempted': leaving all five blank loses 1/3 of the marks, and leaving more than 10% of the questions blank disqualifies the candidate. Shishya's player has no option E: a question you skip here costs nothing.
  • On Shishya the Hindi questions of the language part are in Hindi and the rest of the paper is in English.
  • Current affairs are part of the first section; Shishya's paper has none, because they go out of date. Read the news for that part.
