Normal practice, or a Simulated test

Both use the same questions. Normal practice is untimed and needs no account: choose an option and the answer and solution appear at once. The Simulated test is the real computer-based format, with one 30-minute clock, a question palette and full screen, and your score, the key and the solutions arrive when you submit.

About this test

India's Firsts and Superlatives GK Quiz, Level 2 Practice Set

This Level 2 GK quiz helps you check whether you can connect India's firsts, not just name them, through chronology, year gaps, odd-one-out and match-the-list questions. Prepared by Aptitude360, it covers first office-holders, women firsts and space and science milestones at a medium level.

Topics tested in this Level 2 India's firsts set

  • First office-holders: Rajendra Prasad, Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, G. V. Mavalankar and the first Chief Justice
  • C. Rajagopalachari's distinction and Sukumar Sen's role in the first general elections
  • Women firsts matched with their offices, from Sarojini Naidu and Sucheta Kripalani to Fathima Beevi and Pratibha Patil
  • Aryabhata, Rohini and India's first Moon mission compared, plus Rakesh Sharma and Bachendri Pal
  • The first railway train and other early firsts placed in order
  • Working out the number of years between two firsts

Key concepts behind tricky India's firsts questions

  • Telling apart India's first satellite and India's first Moon mission
  • Which firsts share a year or a month
  • Grouping firsts by century for odd-one-out questions
  • Who held the presidency while Radhakrishnan was Vice President

Revision tips for chronology-based GK

  • Keep a single timeline from the first railway train to the first lunar mission
  • Practise subtracting years between key firsts so gap questions feel routine
  • Check each pair carefully in 'NOT correctly matched' questions

Who should take this quiz

It suits SSC, banking and state exam aspirants who have finished the basics of India's firsts and want statement and chronology practice.
