Hey, Does anyone has any idea how many successful candidates had Economics as their optional in the last RBI grade B exam? It seems all had either Finance.
Hi guys I'm new to RBI exams, can you please inform me about the eligibility criteria for grade b exam, salary and expected time when the notification will be out?
I see there are three newspapers mentioned in the site of which two are read by a great majority. Can you please suggest, which one is the best out of "The Hindu" and "The Economic Times" and also state the reason why?

TEST SERIES AND STUDY MATERIAL for RBI 2016 Ph I and Ph II:
The charges will be as follows-
Rs. 5000 (study material + test series of GA, ESI, Finance and management) -- total 20 tests
Following is the content of tests:
1. 10 GA tests (80 questions each)
2. 5 papers each of ESI, finance and management
10 test papers of GA will also help you in Phase 2. I will specify the GA questions with more chances of being asked in phase 2 as well. I will also provide explanations wherever necessary as many of you do not have prior knowledge in finance and management.
COMPLETE ENGLISH GUIDANCE:
Rs. 4000 (Essay + Precis + Letter). I will take only 10 students for this program because feedback will be very detailed and personal.
I will give one test paper of English every week, starting from 12th June, 2016 till the phase 2 exam is conducted (no matter when it is conducted). I will also provide model essays and pointers so that you can prepare burning issues, thus increasing your chance of getting a well-prepared essay in the exam!
All those interested can send me a fb message or mail of interest on:
