2008s SBI PO paper doesnt follow this pattern of High level reasoning
(or tougher data interpretation Qs like those of 2010s papers). Hence 2008
is ignored from the analysis.
Reasoning: SSC vs SBI
SSC SBI PO
Non verbal reasoning involves usual image-series+
paper-folding, mirror reflection test, dice/cubes.
paper-folding, mirror
test, dice/cubes=not
asked.
2 statement syllogism x at most 2 questions.
3 statement syllogism,
minimum 5 questions.
Lot of Qs. From Analogy, series, and odd pairs. Hardly.
Barely any question on higher level
reasoning.(assumption, inference etc.)
Lots of.
Anyways, lets start.For the purpose of efficient preparation, I classify reasoning

topics into two categories.
Core topics
Majority of the reasoning is asked from these topics. Often in a
set of 5 Questions.
So Cost:Benefit ratio is quite good, if you master these topics.
Chillar
(peripheral)
Barely 2-3 questions from each topic.
Observe this chart:
Reasoning approach: Higher Level
Based on the previous papers of SBI, we can see that higher level reasoning is
made up of following topics
1. Fact-assumption-inference-conclusion
2. Course of Action
3. Cause effect

4. Strong/weak argument
5. Three Statement Syllogism
While both R.S.Agarwal and BS Sijwalis books have covered these topics,
but problem with both of those books=they merely give you a few solved
exams and then give a big list of practice questions.
But the basic concepts/ theory /underlying principles are not covered in
depth.
Then You often face the doubt why option A is the answer and why not
B option? OR why is this an inference and not an assumption?
So, for SBI POs higher level reasoning questions (assumption, inference,
strong/weak argument etc), refer to Analytical Reasoning by MK Pandey
(BSC publication)
MK Pandey not only helps you for Higher level reasoning, but also for
provides some speed-techniques for usual reasoning topics (such as input
output, arrangement, eligibility test, coded inequalities etc.)
Anyways the study approach for Higher level Reasoning (for SBI PO) should be
like following:
Higher Reasoning Topic
Chapter Number
MK Pandey RS Agarwal
1. Statement-Assumption 3 3
3. Inference, conclusion 5 5, 6
2. Strong/ Weak argument 4, 9 2
4. Cause effect 10 8
5. Course of Action 6 4
For example, pickup the topic Assumptions.
1. First understand theory from MK Pandeys Chapter #3, solve all sums given
in MK Pandey.
2. Then move to RS Agarwals Chapter #3 for extra practice. (or if youve BS
Sijwali, go to Chapter #23).
To solve the last three categories of questions (Strengthen / Weaken arguments,
cause-effect, course of action), you must know whatre the facts, assumptions,
inferences and conclusions in the given statements. Therefore, preparation
sequence should be: assumption topic>inference>strengthen / weaken
arguments and so on
3 Statement Syllogism
All cats are dogs..
To master 3 statement syllogism, first youve to master the 2-

2. Three Statement Syllogism Click ME
Then do all sums given in Chapter 11 of MK Pandey and finally Chapter 1 of RS
Agarwal (under Logic portion).
Reasoning Approach: Usual topics
In Decreasing priority order.
Chapter Number
MK Pandey RS Agarwal
1. Eligibility Tests 12 18
2. Math Operations 17,18,19 13
3. Sitting Arrangement 20 6 (Puzzle Test)
4. Data Sufficiency 7 17
5. Input Output 13 to 16 7
Eligibility Test
First youre given a passage with conditions like,
Applications are invited for xyz post. If candidate has graduation with 50%
marks and 3 years work experience. then forward letter to Deputy manager,
else . forward letter to.
Then five questions are given, each has a unique case like If Rahul Gandhi
has **% in graduation and ** years of work ex and.then what to do?
This is known as eligibility test- very commonly asked in BankPO exams.
Advantage=If you get the question, its a set of 4-5 questions. (helps you
clear sectional cutoff).
Problem=can be time consuming, if not practiced @home.
First understand the techniques and tips given in Chapter 12 of MK Pandey.
Then practice all the sums given in Chapter 18 of RS Agarwal.
Math Operations+Inequality
Theyre usually of three types
Type Example
1. BODMAS
+means x,
x means and..
2. Inequality
P@Q means P is not smaller than Q
P%Q means P is neither smaller not equal to Q
3. Relationship
P#Q means P is brother of Q
P^Q means P is sister of Q
Again, math operation questions are pretty common in BankPO exams
Problem=you may get wrong answer or waste lot of time.=need maximum
practice at home.
Approach: All theory and all sums of Chapter 17,18,19 of MK Pandey.
Then practice all the sums given in Chapter 18 of RS Agarwal.

Sitting arrangement
Can be of following types
1. Circular table
2. Rectangular table
3. Blood relations (A is mother of B who is sister of C and)
4. Appointment (Arranging lectures from Mon. to Sat., name of professors vs
subjects)
5. Complex (Person, building floor, occupation etc.)
Advantage=Minimum 1 set (=5 questions) always asked in BankPO exam.
(=helps clearing the sectional cutoffs).
Problem=can be sitters (=very time consuming), If not practiced @home.
Approach: Understand the techniques explained in Chapter 20 of MK
Pandey.
Then practice all the sums given in Chapter 6 (Puzzle Test) of RS Agarwal.
Non verbal
Usually five questions.
Practice is must. Try to solve the question by eliminating the unfit cases
first.
Solve all the questions in RS Agarwal==>Non Verbal portion ==>Series,
Analogy and Classification.
You may ignore mirrors and paper folding, because usually theyre usually
not asked in BankPO exams. (However theyre important for SSC-CGL
exam).
Data Sufficiency (DS)
It is very easy to make mistakes in these question.
Theoretical part must be absolutely clear in your mind.
So first clear the theory from Chapter 7 of MK Pandey. Practice all
exercises.
Then practice all sums given in Chapter 17 of RS Agarwal.
Input Output
Chapter 13 to 16 of MK Pandey then practice Chapter 7 of RS Agarwal.
This ends the core topics. Now, Moving to the peripheral topics (i.e. Chillar
topics).
Reasoning: Peripheral Topics
Peripheral Topics Chap.#in RS Agarwal
1. Coding Decoding 4
2. Direction Based Tests 8
3. Dictionary (alphabet) arrangement 10
DBT: Direction Based Test
E.g. A man walks 1 km towards East and then he turns to South and walks for 5
kms. Then heNow how far is he from the starting point?

This is a no-excuse topic. Practice all sums given in Chapter 8 of RS Agarwal.
Coding Decoding
Can be of two types
Words Numbers
Health is written as GSKZDG then North
will be written as
453945 means decide then
8978 means
Sometimes youre given a matrix table and youve to decode the words
accordingly. Do all the sums given in Chapter #4 of RS Agarwal.
Dictionary (Alphabet) tests
Chapter #10 of RS Agarwal.
Misc.
Once ^all of above is done, get an overview of the misc. topics such as
sequence, series, odd pair, dice, cubes, clocks, calendars, Venn Diagrams
etc. from RS Agarwals/BS Sijwalis book.
This concludes the preparation of reasoning section for SBI PO.
How to approach GA+Marking+Computer, explained in separate article:
click me (with free study material for computer, IT, economy etc.)
How people dig their own graves in Bank PO/Clerk exams?
1. They underestimate the level of competition.
2. They buy the books, magazines, download PDF files from internet and so
on. But they only gather material. They never process the gathered
material.
3. They just spend time in day dreaming and facebook, TV, SMS, PC/mobile
games, cricket, loitering around etc.
4. They start serious preparation only AFTER receiving the exam call letter.
5. During the exam, they think, ya ya ya the marketing and English section is
pappu so Im going to solve all questions here. And after that, Ill go to
maths and reasoning section.
6. They get stuck in lengthy calculations of Data interpretation (because
theyve never practiced multiplication and division @home). And often
make silly mistakes in calculation =negative marking.
7. They waste lots of minutes in sitting arrangement/eligibility test/non-verbal
reasoning type questions.
Ultimately they cannot even cross the sectional cutoffs.( Getting in the final merit
list is a far cry.)
So, How to avoid your grave?
Maximum revision +Maximum practice @home.
Mind will always find excuses (my cousins wedding, workload @office,
Im not in the mood.) but while youre making those excuses, someone
somewhere is busy reading books and doing sums.
The train of success doesnot show mercy on anyone, no matter how good the
excuse is, this train will not wait for you.
So always remember Anil Kapoor from Tezaab: time hotaa nahi hai, time
nikaalnaa padtaa hai. (There is no time as such, but youve to take out

time (to study)).
Donot HATE reasoning. In fact, Syllogism, sitting arrangement, eligibility
test etc. reasoning questions can be solved with maximum accuracy in short
time (once youve mastered them). So dont consider them your enemies,
make them your weapons. Theyll be immensely helpful in scoring high
marks.
When you get the question paper, you dont have to solve all questions in a
continuous sequence i.e. Reasoning question from 1 to 50. Then English 1 to
50 then DI from 1 to 50
Instead, first try to tick minimum 10-15 in each section first, and then come
back and solve remaining questions.

Dear Mrunal,

I have little doubt over cut-off marks of sbipo exam.I am surprised that after getting
only 110 marks(for general category)someone qualifies for the next phase,so kindly
clear my doubt that whether these cut-off marks are original.
thank you.

Hi Mrunal Sir,
Thak you once again for this mind bloing guidelines for SBI Po 2013. I appreared for
theCSIR exam and yor guidelines really helped me a lot. Last day i visited Flipkart
where you have provided an excellent review on the book SBI PO by Kiran
Publishers. Basis yor review, I have purchased that book. Request you to kindly let
me know is that book exhaustive for teh SBI exam as we have aproximately 3 weeks
in hand and being a working professional, i find it hard to cope up with studies. But I
am really focused for this exam too..

Dear Mrunal,
The SBI PO syllabus in the advertisement does not give QA as a section. Does it
imply that maths will not be asked in the SBI PO exam. pl advise.
Regards,

(if you go by the previous papers).
Four types of DI questions:
1)table based, 2)bar/graph, 3)pie chart based and 4)caselets.
+/- Data sufficiency, permutation combination probability

What are caselets Mrunal sir?
Mrunal
Reply to this comment
in typical DI question, youre either given a data table or a picture
(bar/line graph, pie chart)
But in caselet, they give a big paragraph describing some data and
youve to design your own table/graph accordingly and answer the
questions.

Ok sir! Thanks! :)

there is no point in scoring minimum to qualify just for the interview. the objective is
getting a job and for that we need at least 70-80 marks higher than the minimum
cutoff for interview

Dear Mrunal,
The sectional Cut off is added as 70 for general. Then why in 2011 phase 1, then
last person in GEN got 110.

Reply to this comment
sectional cut off means the minimum score u need to score in a section to
qaulify.mere clearing sectional u won`t get a call u need to be among top
scorer to get a call.Imagine 18,00,000 candidates for just 1,500 vacany

Resp. Sir,
Plz make it clear if it is necessary to clear the cutoffs for all the section in SBI PO or
to get 35% marks i.e. 70 marks out of 200. (which one correct OR BOTH)
Because few days back we saw the list of candidates called for GD and interview
from the back log vacancies fot the SBI PO 2011 Exam. In this list there are
candidates who have secured 3, 5 etc marks in data interpretation section (but their
marks are above 70 because they have got good marks in other sections)yet their
descriptive test has been checked and called for interview. If my interpretation
regarding this is wrong please make me correct
This is very important Sirreply soon

Dear MRUNAL Sir,
Thank you very much for the above useful post. Please let me know that whether
quantitative aptitude is asked in SBI PO exam 2013 or not ?????? By QA means I
mean the traditional questions from Ratio & Proportion, Time & Distance, %age,profit
and loss, S.I. and C.I. etc.bcoz if Q.A will not b asked then y we should waste time
on that.
Eagerly waiting for your reply Sir..plz plz plz plz reply mrunal sir
Regards..
Akhilesh
