Refunds and cancellations

What is your refund policy?

Test Manthan subscriptions are non-refundable in most cases. Refunds are only considered in four situations: a verifiable technical failure that prevented platform access for a significant portion of the subscription period, accidental duplicate payment, payment processed but plan not activated, or a billing error on our end. Dissatisfaction, change of mind, or exam schedule changes are not grounds for a refund. Please read the full Refund Policy at psigenei.com/refund-policy before subscribing.

How do I request a refund?

Submit a request through the Help Center in your dashboard, or email psigenei@gmail.com with your registered email, order or transaction ID, and a description of the issue. Write within 15 days of the problem. Approved refunds are started within 7 business days.

What happens after a refund is processed?

If a refund is approved, it is started within 7 business days of approval and can take another 5 to 10 business days to reach you, depending on your bank or payment provider. Your account reverts to the Free plan immediately.

Using Test Manthan

How do I create a test?

Test creation is a three-step process. Step 1: Choose your exam, test mode, and question source. Step 2: Choose your subject and topics. Step 3: Refine and fine-tune your test using advanced parameters including question type, cognitive level, and difficulty. The test opens immediately after creation.

What are the three test modes?

Standard Mode serves questions you have not seen before, for fresh practice. Revision Mode brings back questions you have already attempted, useful for consolidation before an exam. Weakness Mode serves questions only from topics where your accuracy is below the threshold, so you focus on what actually needs work. Standard Mode is available on all plans. Revision and Weakness are Pro and Elite only.

What question types are available?

Test Manthan supports MCQ (single correct), MSQ (multiple correct), and NAT (numerical answer type) formats depending on the exam selected. Question types match the format your actual exam uses.

How does the difficulty setting work?

Test Manthan offers three difficulty profiles: Beginner, Balanced, and Advanced. These are not absolute labels. The distribution of easy, medium, and hard questions in each profile is calibrated specifically to each exam. A Balanced setting for CSIR NET reflects a different question mix than a Balanced setting for IIT JAM BT, because the exams themselves have different difficulty distributions. You can also set difficulty manually using the advanced parameters in Step 3 of test creation.

What is the full test series?

Every annual plan includes the full test series for its exam: past papers and full-length mocks timed and marked like the real exam, and topic sets. You find them on your exam's test series page and under Curated tests in your dashboard.

What happens if I lose internet connection during a test?

Your progress is auto-saved periodically. If you lose connection mid-test, reopen the test from your dashboard. Answered questions are saved. Note that time continues to run during a disconnection.

Can I review my answers after a test?

Yes. After every test, you get full access to question review with expert-curated explanations, and your performance analytics. On the Free plan, you get basic analytics and full question review. On Pro and Elite, you get advanced analytics including topic-wise accuracy, cognitive level breakdown, and smart recommendations, along with full question review filtered by topic, difficulty, and correctness.

Does Test Manthan work on mobile?

Yes. The platform works on phones, tablets, and laptops. For the best experience and the closest simulation of the actual CBT (Computer Based Test) exam format, a laptop or desktop is recommended. Mobile and tablet use is fully supported for practice and revision.

I found an error in a question or explanation. How do I report it?

Use the Help Center in your dashboard to report any question or explanation errors. Our content team reviews and corrects verified errors promptly.
