The paper, one leg at a time

Full-length TCS NQT mocks that feel like the real paper.

Same sections, same timers, same locked navigation. Plus topic practice and real coding problems in C, C++, Java, and Python.

That last block is Advanced Coding — 90 of the 191 minutes. Most people prepare as if the paper were four equal sections. It isn't.

Run of paper

Five legs. In this order. No going back.

Our mocks run the same sequence with the same clocks. Bar widths below are drawn to real time.

Total time
~190 min
Questions
~82-83
  1. Foundation

    Numerical Ability

    25 min

    Arithmetic, DI and the speed topics that decide your Foundation score.

    20 questions
  2. Foundation

    Verbal Ability

    26 min

    Grammar-heavy. The most questions of any section, and the least time each.

    25 questions
  3. Foundation

    Reasoning Ability

    25 min

    Arrangements, syllogism, series and spatial sets.

    20 questions
  4. Advanced

    Advanced Quantitative & Reasoning

    25 min

    Both sub-sections share one 25-minute window. Budget it yourself.

    14–16 questions
  5. Advanced

    Advanced Coding

    90 min

    Nearly half the paper. C, C++, Java or Python, evaluated on test cases.

Rules of the hall

One rule ends your attempt. The rest just shape it.

Hard stop

Switching browser tabs ends the exam.

Not a warning, not a strike. The attempt terminates. Our mocks enforce the same rule, so you build the habit before it costs you a real paper.

How the paper behaves

  • 1No negative marking — a wrong answer costs you nothing a blank one doesn't.
  • 2Non-adaptive. Difficulty stays constant within a section.
  • 3Once you answer, that question is closed. You cannot go back and change it.
  • 4No switching between sections or sub-sections.
  • 5Mostly conducted in-centre at TCS iON authorized centres.
  • 6Both Foundation and Advanced are mandatory.
What you get

Four ways to practise. Use the one that fits the hour you have.

The main event

Straight answers

Questions we get asked most.

Exam dates and centre rules can change. Confirm anything date-related on the official TCS iON portal before you plan around it.

Is this the official TCS test?

No. Cynchrony is an independent preparation resource. We are not affiliated with TCS or TCS iON.

How similar are the mocks to the real exam?

Our full-length mocks follow the 2026 integrated pattern: same sections, question counts, sectional timers, locked navigation, and no-negative-marking scoring.

What happens after my 2 free mocks?

Each full-length mock after that costs ₹9. There is no subscription and no auto-renewal. Topic-wise tests stay free.

Which languages can I code in?

C, C++, Java and Python — the same languages allowed in TCS NQT Advanced Coding.

How is it scored? Is there negative marking?

No negative marking. Sections are scored the way TCS scores them. You see section-level results and topic-level gaps after you finish.

When is the next TCS NQT exam?

For the August 2026 cycle, registration closes 13 August 2026 and the exam is on 26 August 2026. Always confirm on the official TCS iON portal.

Sit the paper before the paper sits you.

2 full-length mocks free, then 9 each. No subscription, no auto-renewal.
