Shishya's practice papers

Two full papers of 120 questions in 90 minutes, in the official sections and counts (Arithmetic 35, General Intelligence & Reasoning 35, General Awareness 50). The questions are Shishya's own practice questions — drafted with AI, then read and answer-checked in review — not questions from any past RPF Constable paper. The subject tests and topic quizzes on this page use the same questions.

  • Figure-based reasoning (non-verbal series, spatial visualisation, figure classification) cannot be drawn in Shishya's player, so those questions are replaced by text-based reasoning.
  • General awareness here is static (history, geography, polity, economy, science, sports). There are no current-affairs questions, because those go out of date; read the news for that part.
  • The real CBT's marks are normalised across shifts; Shishya shows your raw score.
