AFCAT Mock Tests

What to measure

• Net gain from guessed questions — count them separately. If your guesses net out negative, your threshold is too loose.
• Time spent on spatial reasoning — the section that most improves with volume and most slows an unpractised candidate.
• Defence awareness accuracy — the most improvable part of general awareness and the least covered by general material.
• Overall attempt count — with this deduction, a smaller number of confident attempts often outscores a larger number of hopeful ones.

A mock routine for a harshly penalised paper

1. Apply the real deduction, every time Three for a correct answer, one off for a wrong one. A mock using a quarter or a third teaches a guessing threshold this paper punishes.
2. Count guessed questions separately Mark them as you go, then calculate their net contribution afterwards. It should be positive; if it is not, your threshold is too low.
3. Time the military aptitude section Spatial reasoning is where an unpractised candidate loses minutes, and where practice most visibly buys them back.
4. Score defence awareness within general awareness It is the most improvable component and the least covered by general material, so it deserves its own line in the log.
5. Compare attempt count with accuracy Under this deduction, a smaller number of confident attempts frequently outscores a larger number with a scatter of guesses.
