Is it really free? No hidden charges?

100% free. No in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no forced ads. Play immediately from the shared question bank — no setup needed. Optional extras stay optional: watch a rewarded ad only if you want +5 coins, and add your own free Gemini API key only if you want unlimited AI-generated questions.

What is a Gemini API key and do I need one?

You don't need one — the shared question bank works without it. A Gemini key is a free key from Google AI Studio that unlocks unlimited freshly generated AI questions tuned to your exam and branch. Takes 2 minutes, no billing: aistudio.google.com → Get API Key → Create → copy and paste.

Should I install from Google Play or the APK?

Both give you the same app — Aspirant Arcade is live on Google Play. Play Store is the easiest route: standard install, automatic updates. The direct APK is for anyone who prefers to skip the Play Store — it installs in 30 seconds after enabling 'Install unknown apps'. Don't want to install anything? The web version runs straight in your browser.

Which engineering branches are supported?

Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Chemical, Computer Science/IT, Electronics, Metallurgy, Mining and Petroleum. Questions generated specifically for your branch — not generic.

Will questions repeat across sessions?

No. The app tracks every question you've seen and tells Gemini to avoid them. Every session has fresh questions.

Does it work offline?

Partially. Bookmarked questions and insights are available offline. AI question generation needs internet to call the Gemini API.

Yes. Stored locally on your device using encrypted secure storage. Never sent to any server — not ours, not anyone's.

Which engineering exams are covered?

GATE, IES/ESE and PSU recruitment exams — HPCL, Coal India, BHEL, ONGC, NTPC, SAIL, IOCL, GAIL, BPCL and more. Interview Simulator available for exams with GD/PI rounds like HPCL, BHEL and IES.

Is Aspirant Arcade only for engineering exam aspirants?

No — engineering (GATE, IES, PSU) is one of five categories. It also covers entrance exams (JEE Main, JEE Advanced, NEET, CUET, BITSAT), govt exams (SSC, Banking, Police), college degrees (BCA, MCA, MBBS, Nursing, B.Pharm and more) and CBSE Class 9–12 boards. Pick your category on the home screen.

Does Aspirant Arcade cover SSC, Banking and Police exams?

Yes. SSC CGL, CHSL, MTS, GD Constable and CPO, IBPS PO/Clerk, SBI PO/Clerk, UP Police Constable and Delhi Police Constable are all covered with free, section-wise gamified MCQ practice matching each exam's real syllabus, question count and marking scheme.

Is Aspirant Arcade a replacement for Testbook, Adda247, Physics Wallah or Unacademy?

No — it's a free companion, not a competitor. Platforms like Testbook, Adda247, Physics Wallah and Unacademy give you structured courses, live classes and full-length mocks. Aspirant Arcade adds a gamified practice layer on top: streaks, survival rounds, multiplayer challenges and AI interview drills that turn idle scroll time into extra MCQ reps between coaching sessions.

Which college degree exams are supported?

BCA, MCA, MBBS, BMLT/BMLS, BMRIT, BPT (Physiotherapy), B.Sc Nursing and B.Pharm — free subject-wise core practice authored from each degree's real university curriculum, with shared foundational subjects (like Anatomy and Physiology) reused across the medical degrees at the right difficulty band.

Do I need a Gemini API key to play?

No. You can play immediately from our shared question bank — no key or signup required. Adding a free Gemini key (Google AI Studio, 2 minutes, no billing) unlocks unlimited freshly generated questions every session.

How do coins and multiplayer challenges work?

You start with 100 coins, earn +50 per referral, and can watch an optional rewarded ad for +5. Spend 2 coins to unlock a question hint. For multiplayer, create a Synced Challenge lobby, share the invite code with up to 10 friends, and compete under a synchronized 5-minute timer for ranked trophy scorecards.

Focus Mode is an Android-only feature that catches you on Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts and makes you clear a few MCQs from your branch and syllabus before you can keep scrolling. You set the scroll limit and how many questions, and you can turn it off anytime. It turns doom-scrolling into drip-fed revision without quitting the app.

Does Focus Mode read my messages or spy on me?

No. It only checks which app is open and the screen name (Reels or Shorts) — like a sign on a door, not what's inside the room. It never reads your DMs, captions, comments or the videos themselves, and nothing leaves your phone. Questions are cached locally on your device.

I am allotted a seat but wish for an upgrade in subsequent rounds. What should I do?

If you are satisfied with your Round 1 allotment but wish to participate in an upgrade for Round 2 or later rounds, you generally need to accept the allotted seat, complete the admission formalities, and then opt for 'upgradation' or 'free exit with option for upgrade' as per WBMCC's specific rules. Always refer to the official WBMCC counselling brochure for precise instructions on upgradation.

What happens if I fail to report within the specified deadline?

Failing to report to your allotted institute by the September 5, 2026 deadline will result in the automatic forfeiture of your Round 1 allotted seat. You may also be excluded from participating in subsequent rounds of counselling, depending on the WBMCC's specific rules regarding non-reporting candidates. Timely reporting is mandatory.

Is it possible to participate in Round 2 if I decline my Round 1 seat?

The possibility of participating in Round 2 after declining a Round 1 seat depends on the specific 'exit' rules defined by the WBMCC. Some counselling processes allow a 'free exit' in Round 1, enabling participation in Round 2, while others may impose restrictions or fee forfeitures. Consult the official WBMCC information bulletin for precise details on exit options and eligibility for subsequent rounds.

How can Aspirant Arcade support my preparation for future NEET attempts if I don't secure a desired seat this year?

The WB NEET UG Round 1 result was declared on August 31, 2026. Following this, candidates have a designated window from September 1 to September 5, 2026, to download their WB NEET UG allotment letters. It is imperative that candidates complete the reporting process to their allotted institutes and fulfil all prescribed admission formalities by the strict deadline of September 5, 2026. Failing to adhere to these timelines could lead to forfeiture of the allotted seat.

The allotment decisions are meticulously based on several key factors, including the candidate's NEET UG rank, the choices they submitted during the counselling registration, the total number of available seats, and all applicable reservation rules. This outcome marks a significant milestone in the journey towards medical and dental education in West Bengal.

Understanding Your Seat Allotment Status

Receiving a seat allotment in WB NEET UG Round 1 is a moment of relief and excitement, but it's crucial to understand that this is a provisional step. The release of the allotment result signifies that you have been assigned a seat based on your preferences and merit, but it does not mean your admission process is complete.

Candidates who have secured an MBBS or BDS seat must now proactively engage with the subsequent stages of the admission process. This involves a series of mandatory actions, including downloading the official WB NEET UG allotment letter, physically reporting to the institution you have been allotted, and meticulously completing all the required admission formalities as per the WBMCC's guidelines. Each step is critical, and careful adherence to instructions will ensure a smooth transition to your medical or dental program.

During this reporting phase, you will complete various admission formalities, including document verification, fee payment, and other institutional procedures. Ensure you meticulously follow all instructions provided by the WBMCC and the college authorities. The final deadline for reporting is September 5, 2026.
