SBI PO Prelims second day i.e. 30th April is over and we are here with the detailed exam analysis. Alike the yesterday’s slots, the first slot of today was varying between easy to moderate level of questions and according to us the ideal attempt for the thus slot should be 55-60 questions.

According to our exam analysis, the overall exam was not very difficult for the students. The English section came with a surprise again with phrase replacement. Students were quite prepared as the yesterday’s exam had the similar kind of questions.

The QA section which is entirely based on short-cut tricks and formulas decides the fate of you. In today’s exam, DI questions based on Table were easy and Bar Graph questions were moderate.

Reasoning Ability

The reasoning section again was inclined towards puzzles and seating arrangements like yesterday. The questions were based on circular and paragraphs. The low-weightage of other sections disappoint students a bit as there were no machine input/output questions and new pattern syllogism questions as well. But yesterday’s slot kept students prepared with this kind of situation and they were not at all surprised to see the paper. Overall this section had moderate level of questions
