Through these exams, the IBPS recruits both Grade A and B post banking personnel. The Officer Scale 1 is a Probationary Officer post that works with <strong>Regional Rural Banks (RRB).<\/strong> This year, IBPS has announced&nbsp;<strong>4658 openings<\/strong>&nbsp;for the post of IBPS RRB PO (Officer Scale 1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>IBPS RRB Officer Scale 1 <\/strong>exam is conducted over 3 phases- Prelims, Mains and Interview. The Mains paper is scheduled to be held on September 25, 2021. In this article, we will analyze the previous year&#8217;s Mains paper in detail so that we can prepare ourselves for this year\u2019s exam.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>IBPS RRB PO 2020 Mains Exam Analysis<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Reviewing and analyzing the previous year\u2019s question paper is an important part of preparing for any exam. By studying the previous year\u2019s exam, aspirants can perceive the sectional and overall assessment standard of the exam. We will look at the thematic distribution of questions, important topics from every section, last year\u2019s cut-off marks and the standard of assessment of each section in this article. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>English Language<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Topics<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>No. of Questions<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Level<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Reading Comprehension<\/td><td>10<\/td><td>Easy to Moderate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Error Detection<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>Easy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Rearrangement<\/td><td>6<\/td><td>Easy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sentence Correction<\/td><td>3<\/td><td>Easy to Moderate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Para Jumble<\/td><td>5<\/td><td>Easy to Moderate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Word Replacement<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>Easy to Moderate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fill in the blanks<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>Easy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Match the column<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>Easy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total<\/td><td>40<\/td><td>Easy<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The English language paper assessment level was moderate to easy. The maximum number of questions were based on Reading Comprehension wherein candidates were given a passage that they had to read. Candidates were then asked to answer some successive questions related to the passage. 3-6 questions were asked from other topics such as Error Detection, Sentence Correction and Word Replacement. Candidates can obtain a good score in this section if they have a strong language background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reasoning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Reasoning section of the IBPS RRB PO exam was moderate. Let us analyse each topic to understand the weightage given to each in the exam.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Topics<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>No. of Questions<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Seating Arrangement&nbsp;<\/td><td>10<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Puzzles (8 Person likes different food), Box Based Puzzle (8 Box with variable countries)<\/td><td>10<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Coding Decoding (Chinese Coding)<\/td><td>1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Inequality<\/td><td>4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Order Ranking (Height arrangement)<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Data Sufficiency<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Blood Relation<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Direction<\/td><td>1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Alphabet (Meaningful word)<\/td><td>1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Misc.<\/td><td>1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Logical Reasoning<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total<\/td><td>40<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As you may have noticed, Puzzles and Seating Arrangement topics were given similar weightage in the Prelims paper as well. This is clearly indicative of the importance of the two topics for this exam. While candidates should not ignore any other topic, they must give due importance to Puzzles and Seating Arrangement Puzzles so that they can solve them quickly and correctly in the examination.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Quantitative Aptitude<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Quantitative Aptitude section of the IBPS RRB Officer Scale 1 exam 2020 was moderate to difficult.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Topics<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>No. of Questions<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Data Interpretation<\/td><td>15<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Caselets<\/td><td>10<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Series (Missing)<\/td><td>5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Arithmetic Word Problem<\/td><td>10<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Total<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>40<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>From the Quantitative Aptitude section, the major focus of the paper was on Data Interpretation. Questions based on Bar Graphs and Pie Charts were assessed. As you can see, the same weightage was given to DI and Arithmetic Word Problems in the Mains exam as it was in the Prelims paper. Needless to say, for this exam, DI and Arithmetic Word Problems were the most important topics from Quant.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>&nbsp;General Awareness<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Topic<\/td><td>No. of Questions<\/td><td>Level<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Banking Awareness<\/td><td>8<\/td><td>Moderate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Current banking Affairs<\/td><td>10<\/td><td>Moderate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Current Affairs<\/td><td>15-17<\/td><td>Easy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Static Affairs<\/td><td>6-7<\/td><td>Moderate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Total<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>40<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Moderate<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can derive from the table above, of the 40 questions from this section, a striking majority was dedicated to Current Affairs. Candidates must be up to date with the Current Affairs, particularly, news from the last 6 months before the exam. Since, this is a Banking exam, it is a given that a good number of questions would be dedicated to Banking Awareness and Current Banking Affairs as was the very case. Last but not the least, Static GK is a very scoring topic. Although comparatively fewer questions were asked from this topic, Static GK is easier to prepare. In a highly competitive exam, such as this, every mark matters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Candidates should be up-to-date with their Current Affairs to ensure they score well in this section.To stay on top of your<strong>&nbsp;General Awareness<\/strong>&nbsp;preparation you can find weekly updates on all aspects of general awareness on our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ixambee.com\/beepedia-gk-updates-capsule?utm_source=ixamBee&amp;utm_medium=header&amp;utm_campaign=beepedia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BeePedia page<\/a>.

Lastly, we will look at the Final Cut-off as announced in accordance with which provisional allotments are made.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>State\/UT<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>SC<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>ST<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>OBC<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>EWS<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>General<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Andhra Pradesh<\/td><td>61.94<\/td><td>52<\/td><td>76.38<\/td><td>76.38<\/td><td>76.38<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Arunachal Pradesh<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>43.44<\/td><td>43.44<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Assam<\/td><td>56.06<\/td><td>51.56<\/td><td>66.88<\/td><td>70.31<\/td><td>72.44<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bihar<\/td><td>52.25<\/td><td>46.25<\/td><td>77.31<\/td><td>77.31<\/td><td>77.31<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Chhattisgarh<\/td><td>56.56<\/td><td>45.69<\/td><td>75.50<\/td><td>71<\/td><td>75.50<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gujarat<\/td><td>41.94<\/td><td>50.94<\/td><td>50.94<\/td><td>52.19<\/td><td>56.75<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Haryana<\/td><td>67.38<\/td><td>40.31<\/td><td>79.88<\/td><td>90.50<\/td><td>91.81<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Himachal Pradesh<\/td><td>65.63<\/td><td>68.56<\/td><td>69.31<\/td><td>83.25<\/td><td>88.38<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Jammu &amp; Kashmir<\/td><td>70.50<\/td><td>51.25<\/td><td>65.06<\/td><td>80.81<\/td><td>89.88<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Jharkhand<\/td><td>53.13<\/td><td>53.75<\/td><td>74.88<\/td><td>80.25<\/td><td>82.25<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Karnataka<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kerala<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Madhya Pradesh<\/td><td>58<\/td><td>44.31<\/td><td>74.44<\/td><td>77.13<\/td><td>77.13<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Maharashtra<\/td><td>71<\/td><td>48.94<\/td><td>73.56<\/td><td>73.56<\/td><td>73.56<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Manipur<\/td><td>65.06<\/td><td>63.31<\/td><td>65.06<\/td><td>65.06<\/td><td>65.06<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Meghalaya<\/td><td>46.19<\/td><td>58.50<\/td><td>58.50<\/td><td>58.50<\/td><td>58.50<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mizoram<\/td><td>54.44<\/td><td>64.06<\/td><td>40.63<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>64.06<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nagaland<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>44.75<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Odisha<\/td><td>63.25<\/td><td>57.94<\/td><td>85.63<\/td><td>85.63<\/td><td>85.63<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Puducherry<\/td><td>67.69<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>63.56<\/td><td>NA<\/td><td>NA<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Punjab<\/td><td>66.88<\/td><td>34<\/td><td>73<\/td><td>81.81<\/td><td>92.38<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Rajasthan<\/td><td>39.13<\/td><td>47.63<\/td><td>36.75<\/td><td>47.63<\/td><td>47.63<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tamil Nadu<\/td><td>72.88<\/td><td>33.44<\/td><td>81.06<\/td><td>57.56<\/td><td>81.06<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Telangana<\/td><td>64.31<\/td><td>60.88<\/td><td>70.81<\/td><td>70.81<\/td><td>70.81<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tripura<\/td><td>65.50<\/td><td>59.69<\/td><td>72.19<\/td><td>65<\/td><td>80.44<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Uttar Pradesh<\/td><td>52.56<\/td><td>29.50<\/td><td>64.19<\/td><td>70.56<\/td><td>70.56<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Uttarakhand<\/td><td>100.38<\/td><td>59.63<\/td><td>82.75<\/td><td>100.38<\/td><td>100.38<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>West Bengal<\/td><td>62.75<\/td><td>47.56<\/td><td>63.56<\/td><td>69<\/td><td>80.94<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, the cut-offs ranged between the 60s and 90s.
