Hi people who have appeared for NMAT (Actual), were the mocks aligned with the paper pattern or should we be expecting some surprises ?

not scaring you at all, but quant and LR felt a bit tougher than the official mocks, and do the official mocks only

Better to attempt the official mock. You can do it twice, I believe. Take it for the first time to understand the pattern and the type of questions, prepare accordingly and then retake it a few days before your actual attempt.

Can you elaborate what the pattern was like?
