The Current Affairs Pulse test series turns the current affairs and PIB releases published on this site into timed mock tests for 2026. There are four kinds — weekly and monthly, current affairs and PIB — and each of them is written twice: once in UPSC Prelims format and once in SSC, Railway and Banking format, so you only ever attempt questions shaped like the exam you are actually writing.
The weekly test covers seven days and is exhaustive — every question written that week appears in one of its sets. It is the revision loop: attempt it on the weekend, while the events are still recent enough to fix. The monthly test is a selection rather than a sweep, weighted towards the month's most significant stories, and it is the retention check — sitting it three or four weeks after the news happened tells you what actually stuck. Questions repeat between the two on purpose; meeting a fact a second time weeks later is what moves it into long-term memory.

The same news is asked completely differently by different exams. UPSC frames it as multi-statement 'which of the statements given above is/are correct', matched pairs and assertion-reason, testing mechanism and implication. SSC, Railway and Banking ask direct single-fact questions — who, which, when, how many — answerable in twenty seconds. Mixing the two produces a test that serves neither, so every set here belongs to exactly one of them, including the PIB sets.
Free sets are built from the daily quiz questions, regrouped from date-wise practice into timed weekly and monthly papers. Premium sets are built from a separate bank of questions that the writing process holds back from the daily quiz, so they are not published anywhere else on the site — no article page, no quiz page, no PDF. While the test series is new, the premium sets are open to everyone at no cost.
The score report shows your marks with negative marking applied, your accuracy on attempted questions, how long you took, and a subject-wise breakdown that points at the areas to revise. Every question is then listed with the correct option, an explanation of why it is right and why a tempting option is wrong, and a link to the article it came from.
Yes. The free sets are permanently free, and the premium sets are open to everyone for a limited time while the test series is new.
The daily quiz shows the answer after every question and has no timer — it is practice while you read. A test series set runs on a clock, hides the answers until you submit, and gives you a score report, which is what a mock exam does.
No. Tests run in your browser, and your scores are stored on your own device so you can see which sets you have already attempted.
UPSC sets suit Civil Services Prelims and State PSC exams. The SSC, Railway and Banking sets suit SSC CGL/CHSL, RRB, IBPS and SBI exams, and defence exams such as NDA and CDS.
PIB is the government's own press agency and the single highest-yield source for Prelims. Those sets are built only from PIB releases — schemes, outlays, ministries, launch dates and the bodies behind them — rather than from news reporting.
Weekly sets carry 25 questions and run about 20–30 minutes. Monthly sets carry 50 and run about 40–60 minutes, depending on whether they are UPSC or general format.
New weekly sets appear once a week's articles are all published, and new monthly sets in the first days of the following month.
