What should be a good score in this test? How much are you scoring@Shailputri?
And those who are asking for another good mock, I would recommend shankar's last open. There's one today too but I am yet to write it. But the last one was decent enough but lots of 50-50 questions.
I wonder what has happened to insights and vision. They seem to have completely lost track of the pattern. They are fixating on the 12 random questions that upsc asks out of a 100 and replicating them to a level of 60/100.@Archand shankar ias mock test 1 was good. it was conducted on 19th sep and 2nd one is today..you can check that in download section of shankar portal. i found paper well crafted and elimination technique could be used well in that.https://www.iasparliament.com/downloads
Thanks a lot!
Will check both Shankar and OpenIAS.
Also,@Voyager will highly recommend not to attempt any Insights test. Questions will be binary and arbitrary. Tests like Insights this close to the exam can unnecessarily demoralise us.
Back when I started preparing they used to be the benchmark indicator of preparation. But now they should be the last ones anyone should be attempting especially this near to the exam.
I scored in 90s in most of them, once maybe in 100s and once or twice in 80s too.Hey guys, how are you all scoring in Simulators this time around? The 8 which are in the market are the ones I’m referring to.

This is what the forum people(admins) used to post on the simulators thread back when it was active. I just copied from there and saved it only to realise they are making me anxious and ignored them for the good later. :P@chamomile this much high cutoffs in simulators.. are they according to number of students giving or in general
