Tips for Bank PO And Clerical Examinations

Tips for Bank PO/Clerical Examinations:

Bank exams are not difficult at all. One information may make you feel better is that no one scores 100% in these examinations. Even if you manage between 50-60% and are pass in all sections a good chance is that you'll make it to the merit list, unless the paper is too easy.
Acquaint yourself with exam:

The first step would be of course to aquaint yourself well about the pattern of the examination. Your best source for this would be of course the "Acquaint yourself " or "Information about Exam" booklet that comes with your call letter. It gives you a clear idea about the various sections which will be there in the question paper.

A written test for a PO exam consists of two parts, objective part and a descriptive part . The objective part consists of four sections namely, English language test, quantitative ability, Reasoning and General Awareness/ Marketing aptitude.

I’ll discuss on how to attempt a standard bank PO exam which has 225 questions in total with 135 minutes time i.e., 2 hrs and 15 minutes.
225 questions in 135 minutes comes out to be 36 seconds per
question. It may seem daunting but it’s not the end of the world since
we aren’t attempting every question. If you can attempt 175-185
questions (> 190 is excellent) with 90 percent accuracy, you’ve done a
good job.
