SBI PO Prelims 2016: Exam Analysis – 9th July, Slot IV

Hello Friends,
The Third day last slot of SBI PO prelims exam is over .Here we bring you the last Slot Analysis which will help you understand the composition of SBI PO Pre exam. There are 3 Sections in SBI PO Pre exam namely English, Reasoning and Quantitative Aptitude.
In the earlier two days of SBI Pre exam we’ve seen that the paper was tricky with moderate to difficult level. In this slot we have found that the overall difficulty level of the exam was moderate. The pattern of this paper was similar to the previous shifts and that can be a plus point for students appearing today as they already have an idea of the paper. Again there were 5 puzzles asked in this first slot paper that is an important point to note.

The total time is 1 hour, so clearly Speed, Accuracy and Planning is surely needed to have good attempts.
