I am in. Anyone fm Jaipur??
Selected.. 😃
Thank you guys.. Although I was not too active here, the one definite help that I got from this forum was the knowledge of where to study the management part of F&M from.. As such it is my moral responsibility to give something back to the people of this group..
For a beginning, my only advice to all future aspirants would be to GET YOUR BASICS STRONG. I had never heard of RBI Grade B before mid-Oct 2015. I studied for phase 2 for only 9 days! And yet I could sail through, just because being a UPSC aspirant my basics were pretty strong. So I repeat, get your basics strong. Don't pile up dozens of books for each subject. 1 standard book plus newspapers would be sufficient if done very thoroughly.
All the best everyone.
This was third interview attempt...
And Sardar jee ne phr out kar diya....:'( __ still confused what went wrong, waiting for marks now....
Last year planned that Ll not appear for this exam again but new pattern ke chakkAr me phr try kiya...now I think its time to give up...already PO in psb for 6 years, I guess no point taking the exam again...:'( :'( :'(

somebdy plz tell dutt n sundram mishra puri or ramesh singh which one should i prefer ?
Lesson for anyone attempting next year.... 1.Prepare for phase 2 v.seriously bcoz sardarji is not going to make ur lyf any easier..on the contrary he might make ur hardwork go in vain. 2. If possible get a job as i felt those wid some kind of work experience or top rated colleges impresses "sardarji" more. Unemployed and students from mediocre college are at loss as he grills them v.much and even not so friendly wid dem. He clearly wants a "good" profile person.. At d end i knw everthng sounds like an excuse if u r OUT bt wat can we do...hope rbi changes "sardarji" . I personally found him biased.
Hello all. I have been one of the many silent followers of this thread. To everyone who has been contributing here, a big thank you first of all.
Writing from the perspective of my Grade B attempt as a General Category candidate from Chennai, a few thoughts right now; first, clearing the prelims itself is an exacting task(only 5% pass) and indicates a fairly good proportion of the grey matter.
Second, clearing a three-phase examination process, that too with normalization across subjects and (this time) across centers is always going to involve a bit of luck. For starters, it was rather surprising to see so many economics optional takers qualifying for the interview stage, some of whom had even claimed that they had attempted 100%(!) of the questions while others said that they had blindly guessed many. Not unexpectedly, the share of economics optional candidates to clear the interview seems to be much less than that of F&M ones, thus ending that anomaly.
Third, English is not a no-hoper or a blind date entirely at the mercy of the examiner, as many here seem to think. Just like any other subject, it is possible to improve in English and write an essay and YES! A Precis, too better than the average guy attempting the paper.
Fourth, a bad interview is not as unusual as one may think. I am a staff candidate, but I still pretty much blundered my way through the entire interview. The Sardarji, who seemed rather amenable to the idea of seeing me as an RBI Officer when I entered the room, started to develop a distinctly pissed look as the interview wore on and rather abruptly drew it to a close with not even 10 minutes having elapsed.
Fifth, it is a personal belief of mine that around 20-25% of an interview is decided even before you take it; Yes, I am referring to that humble document known as our biodata. An okayish background profile can still be elevated by pitching across a well-thought out biodata form that highlights your strongest areas while underplaying/omitting your weaker ones. My profile has no IIM/IIT/blue-chip company work experience/exceptional academic/extracurricular achievements but I had paid a lot of attention to how I presented whatever I had and the biodata turned out to be a zinger. Also keep in mind that your manner of expressing yourself also comes across through your biodata and may influence both how they approach you and how much they make allowances for a bad interview.
And lastly, keep fighting and invest adequate time for preparing for every stage of an exam. If a battle is lost, learn from it, restrategize and move ahead. Before managing to clear RBI Assistant, I was an engineering graduate from a no-name college who wandered without a job for more than a year because no company would even allow me to take an interview (I had arrears that I could clear only 6 months after passing out). I also took up, and dropped midway, preparation for GRE, CAT, GATE, TANCET, UPSC and what not(you name an exam and chances are I would have applied for it at one point in life), simply because I found myself struggling to cope and too depressed to continue.
Prior to this attempt, I had given Grade B twice, but couldn't clear even the sectional cut-offs at the Prelims itself. I barely squeaked through the quants cut-off this time, only to find my entire house flooded and having to relocate to a relative's house(which also had no electricity, no mobile connectivity and low food provisions) just a week before the Mains Exam. To top all of this, I had a disastrous ESI paper where I never expected to cross 70 when practically everyone around me was mentioning a ballpark estimate of 80-95. And, as I have already mentioned, an interview that brought to the mind Suresh Raina's encounters with the short ball (brief, torrid and entirely forgettable).
I had taken a month-long leave for the Prelims, 2 weeks leave for Mains and another 2 weeks for Interview and had resigned myself to facing endless ribbing from colleagues in office once the results were out.
Got a few missed calls yesterday evening. Opened the RBI site on a hunch. The Results had been published.............and yes, I am IN 😃
