🍻 🍻
any tips for me in maths? i am bit slow in this.. thnx 😃
cut off kya jaega pre ka? any idea?
Any shortcut to solve this type of a sum?
38 28/17 + 49 19/17 + 121 21/17 + 234 25/17 - 129 22/17 - 89 29/17=?
Ans. 226 8/17
Guys Prelims papers may be of varying difficulty and Normalisation takes place.
Can someone explain it...Like in terms of attempts or score or what is need to score more after normalisation.

gave ST 118, quant is the thing to look forward to in this ST....overall paper was good.....but mahendra's server is taking its toll on me.....score card is absolute anda '0'.
This post is in reference to the Either/or in "possibility" cases that has come up a lot lately. Seeing the frequent occurrence of these questions, i thought it was better to get the confusion cleared than following the set norms. After asking the people who posted those, i found that these came from not one, but two different test series, BSC and CP (there could possibly be some others too). The thing is BOTH of them claim it to be an Either or case and not a Both follows case, hence may be e/o should be the one we should go with. But you are free to stick to your own logic and answer only what your concept allows. Thank you.
PS: I posted this because many had tagged me in such questions and Both follows was my answer, but when I saw different mocks following otherwise, it kind of was my responsibility to let others know as well.
PPS: those who are confused regarding which question i am talking about, one such example is below:
Statement: Some input are outputs.
All outputs are necessary
No necessary is a result.
Conclusion:1)All inputs being necessary is a possibility.
2)All results being input is a possibility.
A is 60% more than C and B is 20% more than C. How much % is B less than A?
Is it 40/160 or 40/120??????

Relation between x and y???
So Future Bankers,All the very Best for tomorrow,Gear up your weapons and fight like you have never fought 😃 For motivation remember Raghu Sir Lines"My name is RaghuRam Rajan and i will do what I do"Same applies to u all.All the Best
CP
x2 = 729 y=root(729)
answer given is: x less than or equals y
IMO sqr.root of x is +/- x therefore x=y.
Or am I wrong ?
c.i for 2yr is 832 and s.i on same amount and period is 800 difference between c.i and s.i for 3 yr is?
Dear readers,
We at PaGaLGuY wish you the very best for your upcoming exams! Believe in yourself, be confident and attempt the test with a relaxed mind. Do not get too worried in these last few hours before your exam. Revise the important formulas once and then ensure that you have sufficient rest so that you are able to give the test with a fresh mind. And, be confident that your preparation will be enough to ensure that you clear the cutoffs.
Expected cutoff:
The IBPS PO prelims is being conducted for the first time this year. It is expected that the cutoff for this test would be around 40 to 45 for general category candidates. This estimation is based on the cutoff for SBI PO prelims 2015. The cutoff for SBI PO prelims this year was 47.75.
Also note that the sectional cutoff in SBI PO prelims was 5.75 for English Language, 5.75 for Quantitative Aptitude and 9.25 for Reasoning Ability. Accordingly, in the IBPS PO prelims, sectional cutoffs in these three subjects should be around 5 to 6 marks for English and for Quant and 8 to 10 for Reasoning.
Do note that this expected cutoff is based on the assumption that the difficulty level of IBPS PO prelims this year would be similar to the difficulty level of this year's SBI PO prelims exam. If the difficulty level of IBPS PO prelims is similar to the difficulty level of this year's SBI PO prelims then the cutoff for IBPS PO prelims should be around this range.
Your target:
Now that you know the likely cutoffs, you can plan your approach during your exam. First of all, ensure that you divide time equally (roughly) across all sections. Remember, that you need to clear the sectional cutoffs in each section. Hence, you cannot ignore any section. For prelims, you may give 20 to 25 mins to Quant, 20 minutes to Reasoning and 15 to 20 mins to English. Overall, you should attempt around 60+ questions, with around 20 attempts in each section.
Also, start the exam with your strongest section. This will ensure that you gain confidence and speed right from the start of the test.
Section-wise approach:
In each of the sections, you should chose those 20 questions that you can solve quickly and accurately. Do not think that you have to solve the first question that you read or the first 5 questions that you read. Instead, remember that in each section you only have to attempt around 20 questions - which means that you can reject 10 to 15 tough or time-taking questions in each section. After you have solved the 20 easy questions in each section, if you still have extra time left, you may then solve some of the tough/time-taking questions that you had left out earlier.
Let us now look at how you can choose these 20 easy questions in each section.
Quantitative aptitude:
The possible break-up of the quant section is: DI - 10 questions, Quadratic equations - 5, Arithmetic and others - 10, Number series - 5, Simplification - 5 questions (based on SBI PO prelims pattern).
Now, out of these questions, if you are careful with your calculations, you can easily attempt 7 to 8 DI questions accurately. Similarly, you should be able to attempt at least around 5 to 7 questions from questions based on Arithmetic, etc. Finally, you should be able to try around 5 to 7 questions from the Number Series + Simplification portion. This should easily give you a total of 20 attempts in around 20 to 25 minutes. Do note that in this approach we have completely ignored the quadratic equation portion, which may appear complicated to some students. Also note that DI questions can be time-taking but can be attempted with very high accuracy since they do not require any advanced formulas or complicated logic.
English language:
The possible break-up of this section is: RC - 10, Cloze test/Fill in the blanks - 5, Para jumbles - 5, Sentence Improvement - 5, Spot the error - 5 questions.
In this section, RC would typically include at least 3 to 5 questions based on vocabulary only. Similarly, Cloze test/ Fill in the blanks largely depend purely on vocabulary only. Out of these 8 to 10 vocab-based questions, you should be able to attempt at least 6 to 8 questions quickly. Similarly, try to attempt at least around 7 to 8 questions from the Sentence Improvement + Spot the error portion. From Para jumbles, try to identify at least the first and the last sentence. That is relatively simple to do and would fetch you another two attempts. This itself gives you close to 20 attempts (in less time, since vocabulary questions would not be time-taking). Note that to solve vocab-based questions from the RC portion, you may not need to read the passage, which would again save you some time.
Reasoning:
The possible break-up of this section is: Syllogism, Coding-Decoding, Inequality, Blood Relations and others - 5 questions each, Arrangement - 5 questions, 2 Puzzles - 5 questions each (based on SBI prelims pattern).
In this section, out of the 20 questions from the Syllogism, Coding-Decoding, Inequality, Blood Relations and others portion, try to attempt at least around 15 questions. These are standalone questions typically and are not very time-taking. After this, look at the Puzzles, Arrangement portion and pick the set that appears easiest to you. Solve the 5 questions from that set and that's it - you have got 20 attempts in this section as well.
The above is one suggested approach that can help you manage your time effectively, maximize your number of attempts and hence, clear the Prelims. Based on which topics you are strong in, you can come up with your own approach. Do plan out your approach in advance so that you are fully prepared for the test. Also, do note that the pattern of IBPS PO prelims may be somewhat different from that of SBI PO prelims. Be mentally prepared to change your approach according to the actual pattern of your test. This will ensure that you are still able to get 20 attempts per section and 60+ attempts overall and will ensure that you are able to clear the prelims.
Once again, Team PaGaLGuY wishes you the very Best of Luck!!!
