How much mocks help?

They do help to understand basic Aticate of interview.

One can utilize mocks by controlling the nerve for the time between standing outside the door of interview and entering the room.

I wish everyone good luck and just enjoy your time for interview and thoes 30-35 mins.

Thank you.
