UPSSSC PET | Preliminary Eligibility Test (PET)

UPSSSC PET: full-length mock (85 questions)

A full-length UPSSSC PET mock modelled on the Preliminary Eligibility Test (PET): 85 original questions across 13 sections, weighted towards moderate and hard, each with a worked solution.

Before you start

  • 85 questions in 102 minutes on a single clock — a full-length paper modelled on the Preliminary Eligibility Test (PET).
  • Each question carries one mark; one fourth of a mark is deducted for a wrong answer, and unanswered questions carry no penalty.
  • The difficulty is deliberately weighted towards moderate and hard (about 66 of 85) so the set stays useful on repeat attempts. Every question is original with a worked solution shown after you submit.
  • This English-medium set does not include the General Hindi and Analysis of two unseen Hindi passages sections of the actual paper; prepare those separately.
