SSC CPO Mock Test 2026

A free SSC CPO Paper 1 mock test series. The paper runs 200 questions in 120 minutes for 200 marks, across General Intelligence and Reasoning, General Knowledge and General Awareness, Quantitative Aptitude and English Comprehension. Every SSC CPO online test here is free and scores instantly.

The notice sets four separately timed 30-minute windows, one per section, and that is 50 questions in 30 minutes each: 36 seconds a question with no way to borrow. Finishing General Knowledge with eight minutes to spare buys you nothing in Quantitative Aptitude, so the sections have to be paced individually rather than as one two-hour paper. A wrong answer costs 0.25 against 1 for a correct one, so a guess pays from one in five upwards and a blind guess across four options is already ahead. Paper 1 is a screening test: clearing it leads to the Physical Standard and Endurance Tests before Paper 2, so treat physical preparation as running alongside this rather than after it.

SSC CPO exam pattern

Paper 1

Official SSC CPO 2025 pattern
Questions: 200
Marks: 200
Duration: 120 minutes

General Intelligence and Reasoning · General Knowledge and General Awareness · Quantitative Aptitude · English Comprehension. Negative marking: 0.25 per wrong answer. Each of the four sections has its own separately timed 30-minute window: there is no shifting unused time between sections, unlike RPF Constable or RRB JE..

Paper 1 is a common screening CBT for Sub-Inspector (Executive) posts in Delhi Police and Sub-Inspector (GD) posts in the CAPFs. Candidates who clear Paper 1 proceed to a Physical Standard Test (PST) and Physical Endurance Test (PET), followed by Paper 2 (English Language and Comprehension) and a Detailed Medical Examination (DME).

Paper 2

Official SSC CPO 2025 pattern
Questions: 200
Marks: 200
Duration: 120 minutes

English Language and Comprehension. Negative marking: 0.25 per wrong answer. Two hours, divided into four parts with a 30-minute timer on each. It is not one continuous window, despite being a single subject throughout.

Paper 2 is a single, uninterrupted 120-minute Computer Based Examination in English Language and Comprehension (spotting errors, fill in the blanks, synonyms and antonyms, idioms and phrases, one word substitution, sentence improvement, para jumbles, cloze test, and reading comprehension), unlike Paper 1's four separately timed 30-minute sections. Paper 2 marks count directly toward the final merit list alongside Paper 1, and are also used as the first tie-breaker when total marks are equal.

Frequently asked questions

How many SSC CPO mock tests are available here?

This page currently has 12 syllabus-checked tests for SSC CPO: 3 full-length mocks, and 9 sectional tests.

Are these SSC CPO tests based on the official pattern?

Yes. Every checked SSC CPO test matches the official pattern's question count, marks, duration and negative marking, and the source document is linked with the date it was last read. For Paper 1, that is 200 questions for 200 marks in 120 minutes.

How long does a SSC CPO mock test take?

A full-length SSC CPO mock here runs 120 minutes, matching the official working time for the paper it reproduces. The timer starts when you begin and the test submits itself when time runs out, so it is worth starting one only when you can sit it through. The shorter tests on this page run from 30 minutes, for when you do not have a full sitting free.

Do these SSC CPO mock tests have negative marking?

Yes. Every SSC CPO test here deducts 0.25 marks for a wrong answer and scores an unanswered question zero, the same as the official scheme it is checked against. Your result breaks out what the deduction cost you, so you can see whether guessing helped or hurt.

Should I start with a full-length SSC CPO mock or a sectional test?

Start with a full-length mock if you have not sat the whole SSC CPO paper under its official timer before: it is the only thing here that tells you whether you can finish in time. Move to the 9 sectional tests once the full mock has shown you which section is costing you marks, and use them to rebuild that one section rather than re-sitting the whole paper each time.

Are these SSC CPO mock tests free?

Yes. All 12 SSC CPO tests on this page are free to attempt, with no account and no paid tier holding back better questions.
