Bank exams are typically conducted no different than
aptitude tests in order to examine the basic aptitude and intelligence level of
the aspirant. The tests examine your IQ level, basic concepts learnt in school
and your general awareness levels. Though they are different from the tests you
may have taken in school. Following points will tell you how are they different-
-The questions have a problem followed by multiple-choices
that makes them as objective type of questions. You need to go through the
problem thoroughly and mark the correct answer.
-Unlike schools, the steps involved in solving the questions
do not give you marks. You grab the mark only for the right answer, and that is
it! In case you are confused between two choices, do not mark both of them as
they will not at all fetch marks to you.
-Every wrong answer makes you pay penalty as a negative
marking. Unlike school or college where you used to get a “zero” for a wrong attempt,
in these exams you will get negative marks to wrong answers. So, if you do not be careful, you can end up
with a scoring less than zero as well.
Out of all five sections, each may carry different cut off. You need to achieve some minimum marks in each
section to qualify for the next level of the bank recruitment process.
For Bank exams, there is no fixed syllabus. Still you can
prepare through various kinds of Bank PO Books and try to grab the job.
