RBI Exams Preparation Resources

in my room 14 out of 24....

I think no of candidates appeared in exam will be (also only ~70%appeared in IBPS PO, figure is justified.)

But all those who appeared are supposed to be sincere,well prepared..

so chances remains same...

I appeared for the mains this year but didn't qualified.


My marks are

English- 65
Eco and social issues-35
Finance & Management- 66
Total- 166(Not qualified for interview):-(

I said about first round OBJECTIVE paper....and these are of second round

This 171 was required to qualify for interviews....no idea abt d overall cutoffs....RBI shud hv clarified this also...

Well 171 is definitely very high

My scores in 2nd paper (Eco & soc Issues) are extremely low 😞 and I thought that it was my best performance among the three papers:-(


Absolutely unpredictable !

I don't think that paper was tough this time (leave aside LR, even in that any serious aspirant would have done at least 30 which is possible in 45 minutes). If you see the attempts of most of the puys almost everyone has marked 60+ in GK section. All other sections are also good. Most of the questions this time in GK was direct one so the chances are less for wrong questions. Even I attempted 80/80 in GK. No way cut off would go lower. As per my guess it would hover around 110.

jise dekho uske 120+ aa rhe hai...hindustan k ladke ladkiyan ekdum se tej ho gye hai..... gk mein to sabke 65-70 se neeche nhi hai.... is baar cutoff jayega 150..most conservative estimate:biggrin::sneaky:..... waise is baar cutoff 104 se kam jaega..i bet...coz gk though relatively easy( 4evry one nt fr me..sneaky questions) had more questions dan lst yr dere4 cutoff in gk itself wud decline..
my expected score gk-70 eng-25 maths: 16-17 LR: 20...hope i wil clr d exam lyk last yr....

Puyz, can any one kindly guide me with the names of exam books one should refer for phase 2 preparation. There is no point thinking abt cutoff's now, may be we should start phase 2 preparation, if we clear phase 1 we will be at advantage or else it will add to our knowledge base.... . Thanks in advance. Sorry if it's offensive to anyone. Regards....
