The IBPS RRB mains exams are just a little more than 20 days away. One thing to understand here is that in the mains exam, you are essentially competing with the toppers. Hence, you shouldn’t leave any stone unturned when it comes to preparation.
Understand the following points for main preparation:
- You have already prepared quant and reasoning. All that is left to do here is practice more and practice higher level questions to improve your speed and accuracy.
- English, computer knowledge and GK are the sections that you really need to focus on to boost your scores and gain an edge over your competitors.
- Out of the above-mentioned subject, computer knowledge is one section that has a somewhat limited syllabus and provides high-accuracy and also less time-consuming.
Thus, if prepared right, this section can be the key to taking your overall mock test scores soaring high.
In this article we will be discussing the following:

IBPS RRB Computer Awareness : How To Prepare?
Where to prepare from?
Don’t get caught up with proper computer textbooks because they would be of a much higher level than is required for exam preparation purposes. Instead, opt for online e-books and capsules that are tailor-made for every exam. You should also take regular quizzes on this (available online for free) topic so that you remember it. These quizzes will also give you a fair idea about the kind of questions you can expect in the exam.

Some Preparation Tips
The computer awareness section can be a game changer in this otherwise difficult examination. So, the first thing we would want to say here is that, don’t ignore this section.
- Follow a systematic & integrated approach: Finish the chapters and keep taking regular tests.
- Revision is an important part of preparation. So, keep revising whatever you learn.
- In the computer awareness section, you can expect some numerical problems from a topic like number systems. So, it is a good idea to keep practicing these conversions in order to answer questions more quickly.
- SBI PO Mains is an exam high focussed on Reasoning, Quantitative Aptitude & English language but the General awareness and Computer awareness sections play a supporting role and can help you clear the overall cut-offs.
All the best!
