The IBPS PO Prelims 2017 concluded yesterday. Overall the paper was more difficult\u00a0as compared to the\u00a02016 prelims exam. The English language section was difficult, quantitative section was moderate and reasoning ability section was also on the difficult side and was time consuming as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another unique event with this year\u2019s exam is that there have been variations and changes in pattern across slots itself which was at a minimum in prior years. While Syllogism appeared in a few slots, it was replaced by Coding-Decoding in others. While Quadratic Equation & Input Output questions were missing in the first couple of slots, students writing in the second half received these questions in their papers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Note that the numbers are ONLY predictive in nature as not all slots of the IBPS PO 2017 exam have been concluded. Also, it’s based on the previous year’s numbers and various other factors. The actual cutoffs may vary.<\/span><\/p>\n

IBPS PO Prelims Exam : Detailed Section-wise Analysis<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/h6>\n

The detailed analysis of the sections as well as the break-up of topics is as depicted in the following picture.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"IBPS<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. IBPS PO Prelims 2017 : English Language Section Analysis<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/h6>\n

There were only three types of questions. <\/strong><\/em>These question types are as follows:-<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Question Type<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\nNumber of Questions<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Reading Comprehension<\/span><\/td>\n10<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Phrase Replacement<\/span><\/td>\n10<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Error Spotting (new type of questions)<\/span><\/td>\n10<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The e<\/strong>rror spotting questions were of a new type<\/strong><\/em> although the general method of solving was the same. The options were changed and this took many of the candidates by surprise making them spend more time on these questions than they would have anticipated. Instead of the traditional type where one had to identify the part of the sentence that had an error, here, students had to choose the combination of sentences which did not have an error. Oliveboard<\/strong><\/em><\/a> <\/span>has added these New Type Error Detection Questions<\/a><\/span> for\u00a0FREE<\/strong> on the IBPS PO mock test page. Please login \/ register<\/a><\/span> to attempt these<\/em>. <\/span>
\n The RC passages were also not easy with some indirect questions<\/strong><\/em> although there was relief in the form on 4-5 vocabulary based questions. The phrase replacement questions had a portion of the sentence as bold and one had to find a better replacement for the portion in bold.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, this section was DIFFICULT.<\/span>\u00a0IBPS PO Prelims 2017 Detailed Section-wise Exam Analysis<\/span><\/p>\n

\"IBPS<\/a><\/p>\n

2. IBPS PO Prelims 2017 :\u00a0Reasoning Ability Section Analysis<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/h6>\n

This section had four or more analytical reasoning sets or puzzles.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>Barring one, all sets\u00a0fell in the\u00a0moderate to difficult category. These puzzles must have taken up a lot of time of the test takers and hence the section was time-consuming. The remainder of the section included questions from topics such as: syllogisms (old type), inequalities and miscellaneous questions from blood relations & direction sense.<\/strong><\/em> These questions could have been solved much faster than the analytical reasoning sets and proved to be the relatively higher scoring opportunities within this section for candidates. <\/span><\/p>\n

However, do note that there has been a\u00a0variation across slots<\/strong> with syllogisms being replaced by coding-decoding in some slots. Thus, one must expect these changes \/ variations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, this section was MODERATE to DIFFICULT<\/span>.\u00a0IBPS PO Prelims 2017 Detailed Section-wise Exam Analysis<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3. IBPS PO Prelims 2017 :\u00a0Quantitative Aptitude Section Analysis<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/h6>\n

This section had\u00a0two DI sets accounting for about 11 questions and one of them was\u00a0quite time consuming. The only surprise in this section was the absence of questions from the topic, quadratic equations.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0Number series & simplification\u00a0together accounted for\u00a0more than 10 questions which were the relatively more scoring portions of this section. The remaining questions were based on arithmetic topics like : simple & compound interest, profit & loss, time & work, speed & distance, alligations etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, this section was MODERATE.<\/span>\u00a0IBPS PO Prelims 2017 Detailed Section-wise Exam Analysis<\/span><\/p>\n

As we mentioned before, there have been variations in question types across slots. Thus,\u00a0students writing the exam in later slots\u00a0must expect these small\u00a0departures across sections & questions types\u00a0in their slots as well.<\/span><\/p>\n
