Why Chapter-Wise Mock Tests for MAT?

• The MAT section focuses on verbal and non-verbal reasoning: analogy, classification, number series, pattern perception, hidden figures etc.
• Doing full papers is good – but breaking them into chapters helps you focus on one topic at a time (e.g., number series, seating arrangement) and improves speed.
• Regular online mock tests mimic the real exam environment and help with time management and sectional practice.

What You’ll Get in the Tests

• Topic-wise mock tests for all key MAT themes:
• Number series, missing letters, odd one out
• Analogy (numbers, letters, words)
• Coding & decoding, blood relations, seating arrangement
• Direction problems, dice & cube, mirror & water images, embedded figures
• Instant scoring and feedback, so you can track your progress and identify weak topics.
• Simulated exam pattern: number of questions, time limit, similar difficulty to NMMS.
• Free access or minimal cost – designed especially for Class 8 students.

How to Use These Mock Tests Effectively

1. Choose a topic (e.g., Number Series) and attempt the mock test under timed conditions.
2. After finishing, review wrong answers and understand why you got them wrong – is it concept, speed or mis-reading?
3. Maintain a log: track your score per topic; mark topics where you repeatedly make errors.
4. Once you’ve done all topics chapter-wise, attempt full MAT mock test under exam-conditions to measure overall readiness.
5. A week before the exam, increase frequency of mock tests and focus on weaker areas.

Tips for MAT Success in NMMS

• Read the syllabus carefully: MAT is about mental ability — reasoning, spatial / non-verbal patterns.
• Don’t ignore previous years’ question papers—they give a feel for question types and difficulty.
• Time yourself. Many lose marks due to rushing or panicking. Using online mock tests helps you adapt.
• Analyse mistakes, not just the score. A weak topic addressed today will increase your score significantly tomorrow.
• Stay calm and consistent. Regular short practice beats one long cramming session.
