Tips and Strategies

Tips for Preparing English Language Subject: The prelim examination of SBI PO is expected to be a bit easier and thus the English language section of the examination is also expected to be that of elementary level. It is expected to have a short reading comprehension section with related fill in the blanks questions in them. As the paper contains the least marks (30 marks) among the other papers in the examination (35 marks), the number of questions are also expected to be less. There would be questions related to cloze tests, error detection and to test your vocabulary skills in the examination. For improving your reading and writing skills you need to read regularly, whatever interests you.

Tips for Quantitative Aptitude: Time is the key for this paper. You would hardly get any time to waste in the paper and hence need to work out on the practice, that too with stopwatch in your side. There would be question related to number systems, number series, profit-loss, average and other basic mathematical operations. There would be questions related to time &work, speed, time and distance along with sums related to ration & proportion and data interpretation.

Tips for Reasoning Ability: Reasoning is the trickiest part in any of the competitive examination and for this short-span examination of one hour; this would be a key paper of look after for. There would be questions related to coded blood relations, seating arrangements, mathematical inequalities and others which needs constant practice and developing own methods and tricks. The key is to keep practicing with all the relevant materials available for the candidates. The questions related to syllogism, data sufficiency and input/output are quite common in the paper and are needed to be given prominence and concentration while solving.
