Koshish covers the CBT-1 & CBT-2 stage of the Railway Recruitment Board Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) today. Practice is built around General Awareness, Mathematics and General Intelligence & Reasoning, with negative marking scored the way the exam applies it. The sections below set out what is in the bank and what is not yet added.
These subjects are live in the question bank and can be practised today. "Verified" here means a question has passed our review pipeline and can be served in the app right now; anything shown as verified is counted from that servable set.
General Awareness
Mathematics
General Intelligence & Reasoning
Scoring follows the exam's own negative marking, so a score here tracks exam performance more closely than untimed quizzes that do not penalise wrong answers.
Railway General Science and current affairs practice
Arithmetic and quantitative aptitude modules timed to 90-minute standards
1/3rd negative marking penalty calibration
FSRS spaced repetition for railway GK and technical static facts
Stated explicitly so nothing here reads as a promise the product cannot keep.
Computer Based Aptitude Test (CBAT) for Station Masters is evaluated separately.
Railway medical standard examinations (A-2, A-3) are conducted by railway hospitals.
