But i have a question. I want to know which mock series should i go for. I had a pretty bad experience of just relying on the AIMCAT's last year , and so want to think once before joining them this year , I have already bought IMS mocks this year and thinking of taking them in the Unproctored mode only , so should i take CL/TIME both or take one of them and also concentrate on Ims mocks.
- all three
