APPSC Group 2 Mock Tests 2026

Practise APPSC Group 2 online mock tests in the current screening and mains pattern, with analysis after every attempt

APPSC Group 2 mock tests help you practise the exact pressure of the exam: 150 questions in 150 minutes, five subjects in the Screening Test, and a penalty of one-third of a mark for every wrong answer. Reading the syllabus tells you what to study. Mock tests tell you whether you can answer quickly and accurately enough to clear the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission's stages.

The Commission released Brief Notification No. 37/2026 on 13 October 2026. This page explains which tests to take, how to schedule them and how to learn from each attempt.

The Pattern to Practise In

The Screening Test has 150 questions for 150 marks and the Main Examination has two papers of 150 marks each. A wrong answer costs one-third of the marks for the question. Set your practice timer to match: 150 minutes, no pauses. Details are on the APPSC Group 2 exam pattern page.

How to Use Mock Tests

  1. Start with topic tests: Take one after each topic and aim to understand every wrong answer.

  2. Add subject tests: Move to full-subject tests when most of the syllabus is covered.

  3. Take full-length tests weekly: Sit in one stretch, in exam conditions, and fix a first-pass and second-pass plan.

  4. Increase frequency near the exam: Take full-length tests on alternate days and keep the days between for analysis and revision.

  5. Revise from your error log: Note every wrong or skipped question with the reason and the correct fact.

How to Analyse a Mock

  • Wrong answers: Check whether you lacked the fact, misread the question or fell for a close option.

  • Slow questions: Mark questions that took more than two minutes and decide whether to skip such types in the exam.

  • Skipped but solvable: Count questions you could have answered and learn why you skipped them.

  • Guesses: Compare marks gained and lost on guesses to decide your guessing policy.

Common Mistakes

  • Taking tests without analysis: A score alone teaches little. Review every test the same day.

  • Ignoring Andhra Pradesh topics: The Main Examination weights state history and economy heavily.

  • Guessing every question: Blind guesses cost marks under the one-third penalty.

  • Starting full-length tests too late: Stamina for two 150-minute papers needs practice.
