Section 1: English Language 
Difficult compared to previous years. Some questions required good verbal knowledge. Our suggestion is to attempt non-RC questions first (like para- jumbles, sentence correction, fill in the blanks etc.) before attempting RCs. Main features: 
 2 Reading Comprehensions, one containing 15 Questions and other having 10 Questions 
 Sentence Arrangement, 5 Questions 
 Spotting Error, 5 Questions 
 Fill in the Blanks (Double Blanks), 5 Questions 
 Antonyms/Synonyms, 5 Questions 
 1 Cloze Test (Paragraph with multiple blanks), 10 Questions 
 No Sentence Correction 
Section 2: General Awareness, Marketing & Computers 
Relatively easy. Based primarily on static G.K. (Banking). A number of questions were about RBI schemes/ reforms of past 3 months, banking related terminologies, current bank rates set by RBI and their meanings (SLR, CRR, Interest rate etc.) and National Affairs. There were only 5 questions from Current Affairs. Computer Knowledge section was based on basic knowledge of computers. Questions were very easy. The main areas from which questions were asked are: MS Office, Application Software, Hardware, Software, and Input-Output Units. Marketing Awareness section was also very easy and you could almost solve every question with common sense and a little knowledge on Marketing Basics.

Section 3: Data Analysis & Interpretation 
Very time consuming. Data Interpretation calculations were time consuming. Some of the DI questions had blanks values in datasets/ charts which needed to be completed first before you go ahead and attempt the questions. Our suggestion is that while attempting any set, do not get touchy about any question and hence do not waste time if you are not able to crack it within 1-2 mins. Leave tougher questions for the second round. This way, you will not miss any easy question in the paper and will be able to optimize the score. Main features: 
 All 50 questions on Data Interpretation 
 No Percentage/Probability 
Section 4: Reasoning 
Time consuming, lengthy questions. Main features: 
 6 questions on Syllogisms 
 7 questions on Machine input/output 
 17 questions on 3 Puzzles (Seating Arrangement) 
 10 questions on Logical Reasoning(Course of Action, Conclusion from Passage, Statements & Assumptions) 
 5 questions on Inequalities 
 5 questions on Data Sufficiency that included elements of Coding-Decoding, Ranking, Blood Relation) 
 No question from Non-verbal reasoning

Overall Analysis of the Examination The exam is lengthy and conceptual. Overall Recommendation 
 Focus on accuracy. Because the paper is lengthy, you may not be able to do fewer questions than normal. It is all the more important to get more of them right. The cutoff is likely to be between 80-85 marks (General category, see details above). In GA and English only guess if you are at least 50% sure of the answer. Avoid wild guesses. In QA and Reasoning, double check your solutions and be extremely vigilant. Simply by avoiding silly mistakes, you can push your accuracy in these 2 sections above 85% 
 Move on to next question if you are not able to solve/ recall the answer. Do not get stuck with one question. There are a lot of other questions which you can solve and score well. Good luck 
Note: The above information is based on memory of our students who appeared in examination on 14th and 15th June 2014. The pattern and difficulty level may/may not be the same in the upcoming SBI PO shifts. If it is different than what you expect, do not worry or panic. Whatever be the level of examination, the cut off marks will be normalized as per the exam level.
