Timing: Single 90-minute timer for all sections combined (no sectional lock). This site provides sectional practice only for the three common subjects (30 of the 100 questions); Professional Ability is not covered..

Professional Ability (70 of the 100 questions) is not modeled here: RRB Paramedical covers roughly 7 to 9 distinct posts (Staff Nurse, Pharmacist, Laboratory Assistant, Radiographer, ECG Technician, and others), each with its own professional/technical syllabus, so there is no single common Professional Ability content that would be accurate for every candidate. This site only provides sectional practice for the three subjects common to every post: General Awareness, General Arithmetic and General Intelligence and Reasoning, and General Science (30 of the 100 questions). There is a single CBT for this recruitment: it directly decides shortlisting for Document Verification, limited to the number of notified vacancies. Minimum pass percentage: UR and EWS 40%, OBC 30%, SC 30%, ST 25%.
