RBI Grade-B Officer 2015-16 , Phase-I & II

Done with Phase I... morning slot.....paper was difficult to me

RBI GR B Prelims.. 1st shift

ATTEMPTS

QA-11 (too tough)

LR - 36 (tough..but selectively can be done)

VA - 20

GA- 66 (mostly current from oct,nov) but weird

TOTAL-133

P.S: overall tougher than IBPS PO

Shift 1 puys post reviews plz

Post Your attempts here ...(Also average attempts in mocks, if possible)

Mine 124 (used to attempt 150-160 in mocks)

How many sets of DI came??

'quant 😞 😞 overall attempts 124

By far the toughest till date

Gs-54

LR-28

Quant-18

VA-24 Total-124

Quant was headache.just 13....no quadratic inequality....

Last year sectional cutoff was 40% in all sections and 45% in 2013...this year i think sectional cutoff will be 35 % only and overall cutoff about 95-100...

So this gives ga 28 eng 10.5 qa 10.5 lr 21

any comments

ga-59

lr-28

quan-9

eng-18

any chances 😞

GA - 59

LR - 35

Eng - 28

DI - 15

total attempt 137 ..

Used to score over 110 in mocks but the paper was tough here .. I m sure sectional for quant and reasoning should be pretty low .. 

QA-05,LR-20,EL-23,GA-62,,,Total-103,,,,not upto the mark.😞😞 I think I am long away from qualification for phase 2... All the very best for others 👍👍

My Analysis :

RBI partially returned to its old pattern, when it used to be the toughest paper in banking industry. General Awareness was OK. English was OK . However Reasoning and Quants were difficult than last three times.

Cutoff expected to fall to 90 +/-5 range. Sectional cutoffs will also be less with Quants cutoff moving to maybe even single digit. 

____________

Way ahead : JUST FORGET WHAT YOU DID TODAY.

EMPHASIZE ON YOUR PHASE 2 PREPARATION if you have attempted more than 90 questions in today's paper. 

Results for phase -I will be out in 5-8 days. 

Ga72.. English 27.. Maths 9.. Lr 20...

Any chance of selection?

Guys My attempt:-   GA=60  , Eng=20,   QA=16,   Resoning=22...Overall =118/200...........What ur opinion about possible cutoff.....I feel QA & Reasoning very tough to score....I think I can't cross Reasoning's sectional cutoff.......

quant 13 reasoning 36 eng 26 gk 52

Last year's cutoff :104 Duration this year 120 mins from last year's 130 mins . So , keeping the difficulty level constant , we can drag down the cutoff to 96 . Moreover , papers were lengthier this year and Quant tough ; therefore cutoff might come down to the mid-80s ( purely speculation from my side )

ga-68

eng-30

quant-15

rea-27

total-140

And people said that practice mock was tough...:)

How was the difficulty level of QA with respect to last year?
