In a notification recently issued by IBPS, it was said that from 2015 onwards PO exams will be a two tier hurdle, i.e. , there will be 2 examinations namely, preliminary and mains which will be then followed by the interview. Although there has not been any info about the structure of the examination yet. please share your views on the same in this thread.
Is it a good move to scrap the old pattern of IBPS CWE???
As per the notification on IBPS website, it has been decided by the competent authority to hold two-tier examinations for recruitment of PO/MT and Clerks from CWE-V onwards. All the candidates who successfully register themselves under CWE PO/MT-V and CWE CLERK-V will be called for Preliminary Examinations. Based on the performance in the preliminary examination, certain number of candidates will be shortlisted for each of these examinations. The short listed candidates will then be called for Main Examinations.
There will be fewer number of questions in the Preliminary Examination with shorter duration. The details with regard to both the Preliminary and Main examinations will be made available on IBPS website through the detailed notifications in due course.
The marks obtained in the Preliminary examination will not be considered for preparing the final merit list and the marks obtained in the Main Examination will only be considered for short listing for
interview.
The tentative dates for CWE PO/MT-V are as follows -
Preliminary Examination 03.10.2015, 04.10.2015, 10.10.2015 &11.10.2015
Also, IBPS RRB exam will be held in September 2015 and IBPS Clerk V will be held in December 2015.
