NEET PG mock test
A timed NEET PG section — 36 questions in 42 minutes, marked +4 / −1 / 0, submitted once and not reopened. The same shape as a section of the real paper, drawn from a bank where every answer is verified and every option explained.
One section, not a 180-question paper. That is the honest description and it is also the design: the section is the unit the exam actually makes you manage, and it is the unit you can sit on a weekday evening.
What the real paper does
NEET PG is the single entrance examination for postgraduate medical admission in India, run by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences. The paper is 180 questions in 3 hours 30 minutes, delivered as five sections of 36 questions with roughly 42 minutes each. The sections lock: once you submit one you cannot go back to it, so pacing is part of the exam rather than a detail around it.
Marking is +4 for a correct answer, −1 for a wrong one and 0 for a blank, and the result is reported as a percentile rather than a raw score.
The locking is the part most preparation ignores. Working through a question bank at your own pace rehearses recall and rehearses nothing about deciding, under a clock, that a question is not worth another ninety seconds. A mock that does not lock is not rehearsing the exam.
The marking, and what it means for guessing
At +4 for a correct answer and −1 for a wrong one, a random guess among four options returns +0.25 marks on average — one time in four you gain 4, three times in four you lose 1. Eliminate one option and the expectation rises to +0.67; eliminate two and it is +1.50.
So the familiar advice to leave anything you are unsure of is wrong on the arithmetic. The real cost of a guess is the time it takes, not the mark it risks — which is an argument for guessing quickly and moving on, not for leaving the question blank.
What you get back
A score against a fixed denominator, the questions you got wrong with their full explanations, and every one of them folded into what the app schedules for you next. A mock you cannot revise from is just an unpleasant afternoon.
Practise by subject first
A mock is worth sitting once a section's worth of the subject is in place. These are the subjects with enough published questions to work through beforehand.

Common questions
How long is the mock?
42 minutes for 36 questions — one NEET PG section, at the real section's length and question count.
Is it a full 180-question paper?
No, and deliberately not. It is one section of 36. The thing worth rehearsing is the section: a fixed question count, a clock, and no way back once it is submitted. Sitting five of them is the full paper.
How is it marked?
+4 for a correct answer, −1 for a wrong one, 0 for a blank — the real scheme. Your score is reported against a fixed denominator, which is what makes two sittings comparable.
Should I guess when I am not sure?
At +4/−1, guessing at random among four options has an expected value of +0.25 marks, so it is very slightly positive. Eliminate one option and it is +0.67; eliminate two and it is +1.50. The common advice not to guess is wrong on the arithmetic — though a guess still costs you time.
Which plan includes mock exams?
Plus, at ₹3,999 a year. Standard (₹1,999) works from the question bank alone; Plus adds everything computed from your own answers, mock marking included.
