Practice with national-level exam (FACT, FACT Plus, NET, CUET, etc.) mocks, learn from structured notes, and get your doubts solved in one place.
Timed practice tests with instant scoring and per-question explanations.
Full-length 100-question FACT Forensic Physics paper. Mirrors the actual exam format: 100 questions in 60 minutes, mixed difficulty (about 30 percent easy, 50 percent medium, 20 percent hard), all eight syllabus sub-topics covered proportionally. This paper is the timed dress rehearsal — pair with Mocks 6 through 10 (which provide the deeper conceptual explanations) and use this paper a week before the exam to test pacing, stamina, and triage under exam conditions. Distribution: evidence collection 12q, analytical instruments 18q, pattern evidence 18q, math and statistics 10q, voice authentication 10q, video analysis 10q, criminalistics and engineering 12q, collision investigation 10q. Aim to complete in 60 minutes; flag uncertain questions and return at the end. Each question carries a 150-200 word explanation citing standard references. Premium tier — 1 credit.

The questions are method-selection problems and interpretation problems — each question places the student in front of a specific evidentiary problem and asks: which instrument, which mode, what does the result mean? Pair with #6 (Foundations), #7 (Applied Analysis), #8 (Evidence Collection & Pattern Analysis); Mock #10 (Voice, Video & Reconstruction) closes the series.
