Practice one topic until it is automatic

Drill the fraction table, squares, tables to twenty, successive percentage change and approximation until they are instant. Every question is solvable mentally in under thirty seconds once the values are memorised.

195 questions in 19 batches

Percentage change, cost and selling price, discount and averages. One family of questions really, because each is a ratio wearing different words, and seeing that is what makes them quick.

123 questions in 14 batches

Simple and compound interest, ratio splits, partnership shares and problems on ages. Standard prelims arithmetic where the whole difficulty is translating the sentence into a ratio without losing a term.

117 questions in 13 batches

BODMAS chains, fraction work and approximation questions. These are the fastest marks in the quantitative section and the ones most often dropped through rounding at the wrong moment or reaching for a pen too early.

108 questions in 12 batches

Work rates, relative speed, upstream and downstream. All of it is one idea used repeatedly: add rates, never times. Questions come from bank and railway papers alike because both ask this the same way.

108 questions in 13 batches

Tables and quarterly figures with several questions hanging off each data set, which is how prelims asks it. The work is in choosing what not to calculate: most parts fall to a ratio or a percentage you already know.

105 questions in 13 batches

Missing-term and wrong-term series covering differences, products, squares and alternating patterns. Each one is quick once the rule is seen, and almost impossible until it is, so the drill is in recognising the shape.

93 questions in 12 batches

Areas and volumes, alligation, and the small amount of counting that prelims actually asks. A short set that grows as more questions are written, covering the topics that appear once or twice in a paper rather than throughout it.

87 questions in 11 batches

Pairs of equations where the answer is a relationship between x and y rather than either value. Factorising both and comparing carelessly is the usual way these are lost, especially when the roots overlap or cannot be compared at all.

69 questions in 10 batches

Letter and number codes, mixed symbol series and analogies. Fast marks when the pattern is spotted quickly, and a place where candidates lose whole minutes counting alphabet positions by hand.

135 questions in 14 batches

Statements and conclusions, direct inequalities and coded inequalities. These are the most mechanical marks in the reasoning section, which is exactly why a possibility case or a broken chain costs so much when it is missed.

126 questions in 14 batches

Family trees and movement traces, including the coded variety. Both reward a quick diagram and punish mental arithmetic, which is the habit this set is meant to build.

108 questions in 12 batches

Month scheduling and floor arrangement sets with several questions each. A puzzle is either solved completely or not at all, so the skill being drilled is finding the one clue that fixes a position and building outward from it.

99 questions in 13 batches

Circular tables facing centre and outward, and linear rows. Several questions come off each arrangement, so getting the diagram right once pays for itself repeatedly, and getting it wrong loses every question attached to it.

93 questions in 12 batches

Standalone reasoning drills: verbal and number analogies, odd-one-out classification, and symbol-substitution problems where the operators are swapped. Quick to attempt, and each one rewards spotting the rule before the options.

81 questions in 9 batches

Positions counted from both ends and the total that follows from them. A small set, growing as more questions are written, on a topic worth two or three marks in a typical prelims paper.

69 questions in 10 batches

Full passages with inference, tone, central idea and vocabulary questions attached. Passages are on the subjects prelims actually uses, so the vocabulary is the vocabulary worth having rather than general reading practice.

108 questions in 13 batches

Subject-verb agreement, prepositions, tense and article errors, plus sentences that are grammatical but badly built. Grammar as prelims tests it, which is narrower and more predictable than grammar in general.

102 questions in 12 batches

Single and double blanks, word usage and sentence completion. Most of these turn on collocation rather than meaning, so the useful drill is noticing which words habitually travel together.

78 questions in 10 batches

Numbered blanks across a continuous passage, where each choice has to fit both the sentence and the argument around it. Reading the whole passage before filling anything is the habit this drills.

75 questions in 11 batches

Sentences to reorder into a paragraph, and sentences where two words have changed places. Both are solved by tracking connectives and pronouns rather than by reading for sense, which is slower and less reliable.

72 questions in 10 batches

Indian Railways history and structure, polity basics and school-level science, as RRB NTPC asks them. A short set for now, growing as the railway question bank is written out.
