Each section has its own timer; the section times add up to 30 minutes.

Topics covered

English Language includes reading comprehension, error spotting, a para jumble, word usage and swap, and a cloze test with three blanks.

Quantitative Aptitude covers data interpretation, number series, quadratic equations, profit, loss and discount, time and work, and ages.

Reasoning Ability is led by puzzles, along with inequality, syllogism, blood relations, direction sense and alphanumeric series.

Every question shows its question type in square brackets at the top, for example [Cloze Test], [Puzzle / Seating Arrangement], [Reading Comprehension] and [Data Interpretation], so you can see which part of the real exam pattern each question follows.

Key formulas to revise

• Percentage change (N = new value, O = old value): \( \dfrac{N - O}{O} \times 100 \)
• Profit percentage: \( \dfrac{SP - CP}{CP} \times 100 \)
• Discount percentage on marked price: \( \dfrac{MP - SP}{MP} \times 100 \)
• Roots of \( ax^{2} + bx + c = 0 \), where a is not zero: \( x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac}}{2a} \)
• Days for A and B working together, if A alone takes a days and B alone takes b days: \( \dfrac{ab}{a + b} \)

Who should take this test

This test suits IBPS PO aspirants who want a timed check of their speed and accuracy across all three prelims sections at medium difficulty. It is also useful for anyone who wants to practise working within separate sectional timers and handling negative marking.
