See Pattern The SBI PO main examination pattern is changed from this year on wards.
Make sure to understand the paper structure first as we explain it below.
Some of the important points you need to note are:
• Negative marks of 0.25 will be reduced for each wrong answer in objective test
• Descriptive test should also be answered online. on the same day immediately after completing the objective papers • Objective paper is for 3 hours & total marks are 200 for 155 questions. Time Limit for each section: Gone are the days when you can choose any section to answer As part of the revised pattern, there is a time limit for each section within which the questions should be answered.
Once the duration set for that specific paper is over, the system will automaticaly proceed to the next section.
Order of papers: The exact order is not known since this being the 1st time.But in SBI clerk mains. the following sequence was followed:
• General awareness > English language > Reasoning > Maths
Hence you can expect a similar arrangement in PO mains as well.
