RBI Grade B Phase 1 Mock Test - 10

About RBI Grade B Phase 1 Mock Test 10

What this mock is and why it is set a little harder

This is a full-length RBI Grade B practice paper with the same four sections and the same length as the real paper. It is pitched at a moderate-to-hard level, a little harder than the actual papers, so that the real exam feels manageable when you sit for it.

What each section covers in this mock

General Awareness: static banking, financial and economic awareness, including monetary policy tools, banking laws, RBI history and organisation, the Basel framework, payment systems, public finance, the external sector, committees and government schemes. It does not cover current affairs.

English Language: reading comprehension on passages about the demographic dividend and the globalisation backlash. It also has cloze test, error detection, phrase replacement, para jumbles, word swap, double fillers and vocabulary questions.

Quantitative Aptitude: data interpretation sets on district loans and branch loan approvals. It also covers mark-up and discount, quadratic equations, quantity comparison, number series and approximation.

Reasoning Ability: floor-and-flat and lecture-schedule puzzles, ranking, syllogism, coded inequality, input-output and data sufficiency. It also includes critical reasoning on assumptions, inferences and courses of action.

Key formulas to revise

• Percentage change: \(\dfrac{New - Old}{Old} \times 100\%\)
• Selling price after discount: \(SP = MP \times \left(1 - \dfrac{d}{100}\right)\), where d is the discount per cent
• Weighted average: \(\bar{x} = \dfrac{\sum w_i x_i}{\sum w_i}\)
• Compound interest amount: \(A = P\left(1 + \dfrac{r}{100}\right)^{n}\), when interest is compounded annually at r per cent for n years
• Roots of a quadratic \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\): \(x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\), where a is not zero

Who should take it and when

This mock suits RBI Grade B aspirants who have covered the syllabus and want a stiff test of speed and accuracy. It works best in the later stage of preparation, after sectional practice. Attempt it in one go, under exam-like conditions.

How to use the solutions and analysis

Every question comes with the correct answer and a worked solution. After the attempt, review every question, not just the wrong ones.

• Note any General Awareness concept you guessed.
• Rework the quant and puzzle sets you skipped.
• List the English question types that slowed you down.
