Prior to IBPS PO exams, when individual banks used to recruit by conducting their own exam, atleast ek exam kharap hone par, dusra exam acha hone ka chance to reheta tha, atleast 19 exam dene ka possibility tha, etni meneth kar ke ek na ek exam to bohut achha hota ki us me call ah jeye……………par is ibps ne to wo chance bhi chin liya sirf apne profit bharane ke or effort ghatene ki chakar me………
@ All Guys & Gals on this blog
Almost everyone here is upset by the difficulty level of IBPS CWE conducted on 17th June. All here are sounding very low, stressed and down. But i’ll like to advice u few things
1) PO paper requires speed & accuracy both if paper is easy but if paper is difficult then speed factor almost vanishes only accuracy matters bcoz speed of everyone suffers in difficult paper by almost same extent. And believe me accuracy you can acquire by regular practice but speed is a natural gift bestowed to only few among us.So if u attempt accurately 130 out of 250 questions in difficult paper and a guy who attempted 160 with 85% accuracy will be behind u in net score. So if u r accurate in your practice sessions and have managed the same level of accuracy in exam as well then rest assured u r in much better condition than u r thinking of. Tough paper is good for almost every one believe me.
2) Many r thinking TWSS of PO-I Candidates will be higher than this time so they’ll have better chances but this will not be the case as TWSS compares with the toppers only so there will be no affect on anyone. Even morning shift candidates will be compared with topper of morning shift n same for evening shift; so slight difference in difficulty level will not affect anyone’s score adversely.
3) Keep your faith in IBPS as guys sitting there are far more experienced and talented than us. There must be some thinking behind setting such a difficult paper. Ruling out tukkas may be one reason.
Accurate guys with descent attempts will have a big smile on their faces when result will be declared. Keep faith in urself and be positive.
This fools(ibps), they does not know how to conduct an exam…what kind of questions they asked?? People who prepared for this exam are fools now. They put them into confusion and mental tension. The people who setting questions does not have comensence at all. Are we attending civil service??? They conducted two exams and the difficulty levels are too different. They may adjust the score with difficulty but how they will assess the mental state of students because of this sudden change of difficulty level? Shame on you ibps..hang yourself…that is better..
we have to think tht hw we’ll solve these types of test when i was giving the exam i was thinking tht it is scientist selection paper i was also thinking that is these all topics related to the post of PO or for the Banking sector
do post your score here buddy with your roll no. aand DOB bcoz u myt be amoung the toppers of this xam
COuld u please let me know if I will be able to clear.My attempts and confident answers are as follows:
ENglish – 30(attempted),28(confident)
GA – 37(attempted),30(confident)
Comp- 35 (attempted),all confident
Reasoning-15 (attempted),all confident
QA – 9 attempted,all confident
As mentioned above,I fear my chances fade in QA section.I did my descriptive paper well.Could u please guide me what all is necessary in descriptive paper.I could write the format properly(in letter as well as precis).I attempted all the 3 compulsory questions and went up with good,zero grammatical error English.

Thank u so much for ur response.I just hope I get thru this. Finger’s crossed.
Thank u so much for such a positive reply.I am in utmost need of this job.i just hope it goes all well.
I really hope it gets me through.I really cudn’t give a better shot in Aptitude.I found it quite lengthy.I really lost hopes but upon finding that everyone found it tough,my hopes have risen again.
Sunne me to aaya hai ki 8k vacancy aane wali hai associates k. bu not confirmed. have u attend sbi 27 may?
f**k off
raju bhai i dont think 140 will get u job
ha ha ha ….saloni is a big lier ….
yesss…… per aasmaaan mein aeroplanes nahi takra jayenge if difficulty level kam ho jayega exams ka !
if due to less job vacancies in banks…. the cut off marks are set high then why not this banking sector increase their seats ??
sry 2 say…….but no.
abi ibps rural banks k exam aa rhe hai september mein… they want us to read,write and speak any regional language.
if again ibps is setting such difficult level then , will it can be justified that they need gaav-wale people as well as grand-sons of einstien to clear thier exam? during bank jobs… no manager is asked to solve probability questions or decide the sitting arrangments ! they are just opening or managing accounts and money.
in our homes…. even our lovely illitrate mothers , keeps the record of income inflow and outflow on their fingertips… then why banks need scientists to run their bussiness ?
its all money game. and we have no other way except being fooled again and again.
yess speed and accuracy is needed ..we also know today,s tough competition but ibps should keep in mind that this exam is attempet by …students of IIM/IIT as well as a small town government college students. so difficulty level should be justified !
hmm.. will try my level best nxt tym :)
What is the format in a precis? Am unaware of it. Kindly let me know.
Thanks.
