Real test conditions

Before you launch the test

This is the computer-based test format, not a quiz page: one clock, a question palette, and no way back once a section closes. Read these first.

  • It runs in full screen. The test takes over the screen when it starts, the way the real computer-based test does.
  • Leaving it is counted. Switching away is recorded and warned about; the third time, the paper is submitted for you.
  • The clock runs for 60 minutes. Set aside that long, uninterrupted. It starts when you begin, keeps running if you close the tab, and submits the paper at zero.
  • 3 timed sections. Each section has its own limit, and a section you have finished cannot be returned to.

About this test

IBPS Clerk Prelims Mock 03: English, Quant and Reasoning Practice Paper

IBPS Clerk Prelims Mock Test 03 is a full-length practice paper for the IBPS Clerk preliminary exam, covering English Language, Numerical Ability and Reasoning Ability. Aptitude360 sets its reading passages around harvest-season crop sales and urban gig work. The arithmetic centres on boats, trains, round-trip speed and pipes.

What each section of this IBPS Clerk mock asks

  • English Language: reading passages on small farmers selling their harvest and on gig workers in Indian cities, error spotting, phrase replacement, double-blank fillers and a para-jumble on coastal erosion
  • Numerical Ability: simplification with square roots, approximation, wrong-number series, comparing roots of quadratic equations, a branch-wise bank accounts table, boats and streams, a train crossing a platform, round-trip average speed, a filling pipe against an emptying pipe and cylinder volume
  • Reasoning Ability: parallel-row seating, an interview-day schedule, circular seating, inequalities, syllogism, coding-decoding, alphanumeric arrangement, ranking in a row and alphabetical rearrangement of a word

Core ideas to revise before attempting Mock 03

  • Spotting grammatical errors and choosing appropriate phrase replacements
  • Finding the opening sentence and linking words to order a para-jumble
  • Why average speed over equal distances is not the simple mean of the two speeds
  • Net work done when one pipe fills a tank and another empties it
  • Fixing definite positions first in row, circular and day-wise puzzles

Practical tips for clerk prelims accuracy

  • Learn common squares and cubes so simplification takes less effort
  • In wrong-number series, test multiply-then-add patterns before plain differences
  • In coding-decoding, compare lines that share a word to isolate its code

Who will gain most from this paper

IBPS Clerk aspirants who have finished the basic topics and want a complete prelims-style paper to test speed and accuracy across all three sections.
