Inspiring Success Story of Shubham Balodi<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My name is Shubham Balodi. I was born and brought up in Uttarakhand. I did my schooling from there itself. After that, I moved to Delhi to pursue my graduation. I graduated in 2018 with a degree in chemistry and have been preparing for bank exams since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started preparing for bank exams in 2018 in the final semester of graduation. At that point of time, I was not able to apply for various exams because of age constraints. I did appear for various clerical level exams, but found disappointment everywhere. Finally, in August 2020, I turned 21 and was eligible to apply for IBPS RRB Officer Scale-I and IBPS PO. As of writing this, I have cleared RRB Officer Scale-I.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quantitative Aptitude<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watched free videos on YouTube. Those were enough for clarity of concept. After that, I completely relied on mock tests. Besides that, I used to solve 10 questions each of missing number series, wrong number series, variable comparison, and simplification\/approximation. (Score- 36.875\/50)\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reasoning<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again, watched free videos on YouTube and then just practiced as many questions as possible. (Score- 30.9375\/50)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

English<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For English, I just took mock tests and focused on them. If you like reading newspapers, you can do that. Otherwise, mock tests would suffice. (Score- 30\/40)\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

General Awareness<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a weak point for me. Memorizing stuff was always a challenge for me. I followed monthly compilations of 2-3 sources. Revising is the key to ace this section. For the static portion, read Banking Bolt by Oliveboard. (Score- 19\/40)\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n
