  • Best test center in the country. Wrote mains here 4 times. 2 IFoS and 2 UPSC. Lifetime experience. The center made me an IPS. Will remain etched in memory forever.

    Invigilators are all retired UPSC employees. Distribute QCAs early by 5-6 minutes. They don't bother much about bell and all. You get 4-5 minutes extra in all papers. Desks here are a delight. The center will fetch 10-15 marks more for you pound for pound over other centers.

    Want to know some cons for a test center ?? Ask someone who has written exam at Daisy Public School, Rohini. They will have a mouthful. :lol:
  • if you get the front seat then you will have the advantage of digital watch (on the lentil of door) but your invigilator will take your sheet before the guy at last seat.
    There are many chaat pakoda stalls.
    no parking area , so use metro only ,so first reach khan market and then take an e rikshaw.
    rest all the best , my centre is najafgarh (the dangerous place of delhi)

  • Pros

    Peaceful
    Spacious
    Well ventilated
    Grt invigilators
    Watch hanging from the wall
    Ample toilets-neat n clean too
    India Gate just few metres away, so grt resting place during the recess
    Accessibility

    Overall I think one of the best centres. Only lucky few gets it.

    Cons
    Very long queues for mobile collection after exam, so better don't carry mobile or b ready for a frustrating queue
    Monkeys------lush green area so full of monkeys.A monkey snatched away specs of an aspirant. Physucal damage, damage to specs, personal stuff like tiffin, water bottle, stationery etc.
    Very tight security check esp in the first half

    Ab pehle fill karna is not a guarantee of getting dholpur house.
  • Its an excellent center, no doubt about it.
