This is the cut off range for the 2018 IBPS PO Mains examinations. The variation in the prelims and mains cannot be much compared as it always has many shifts. The mains examinations of 2017 and 208 can be compared for the 2019 cut off analysis. But the exact cut off cannot be determined after the exams are scheduled.
The quality of questions stands as a background for such a cut off analysis. Apart from analyzing the questions, one can make sure that the cut off marks will be similar to that of the earlier year without much variation. But there were instances where the cut-off marks made rapid and unexpectable shifts. Those shifts were the result of changes in the quality of questions and the introduction of variant question patterns.
Comparatively, we can witness an increased rate of applications for the IBPS PO positions as it olds many beneficiary sections. Along with the average pay-scale, the employees receive allowances and perks according to their needs and interest. The government has a good hand in taking care of the salary accounts of its employees. It is necessary to have a good deal of score to get eligible for the IBPS Clerk post. Thus the candidates need high attention in the changing question patterns and current affairs.
