  • The Puzzles/Seating Arrangement section of the Reasoning Section is the largest portion of the section.

  • Aspirants must attempt as many questions as they can after understanding the concepts in order to master this subject. This part can assist candidates in achieving good exam scores if they practise sincerely.

SBI Clerk Preparation Tips-General/ Financial Awareness

  • Memorizing several facts and events is necessary for the SBI Clerk General/Financial Awareness part. Candidates can learn about more than half of the topics by just reading the newspaper every day.
  • This section includes topics such as financial news, current affairs, headquarters of financial institutions, government schemes, banking news, static awareness, awards, and honours.
