Rajyaseva Pre 2016 - Paper 1

General

1. The exam has 94 questions and lasts 94 minutes. The clock starts when you press Start exam and runs on our server: closing the window or losing connection does not pause it.
2. The countdown is shown at the top of the exam window. When it reaches 00:00:00 the exam is submitted automatically; nothing can be answered after that.
3. Questions appear in a different order on every attempt. Questions that share a passage stay together, and the passage is shown beside them.
4. Each correct answer earns +1; there is no negative marking. Unanswered questions score 0.
5. Use Full screen for a distraction-free window. Leaving the tab is recorded with your attempt.

Answering a question

6. Click an option to select it. Click it again, or press Clear Response, to deselect it.
7. Save & Next saves the answer and opens the next question. Mark for Review & Next flags the question so you can revisit it; an answer on a marked question is still counted.
8. Every change is saved automatically within a few seconds. The save status is shown below the top bar.
9. Keyboard: 1 to 5 choose an option, ← → move between questions, M marks for review.

Question palette

The palette on the right of the exam window (the Palette button on phones) lists every question. Click a number to jump to it. The colours mean:

• 3Answered · an option is chosen and saved
• 4Marked for review · no answer yet; you want to come back to it
