Then why are you not able to pass the test, not able to attempt as many questions that you have solved while practicing or preparing? The answer is simple, you haven\u2019t scheduled the time. The correct time management skills are to be made for the online examinations.\u00a0 In this article let us focus on the <a href=\"https:\/\/entri.app\/blog\/sbi-po-notification\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SBI PO<\/a> and Clerk Time Management strategies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">State Bank of India conducts recruitment examinations every year to various posts like Clerk and Probationary Officers. The SBI exams are having glamour, as it is one of the highest-paid public sector-banking jobs in the country. Of the lakhs of candidates applying for the examination, and attending the preliminary phase, only thousands will reach the Mains exam.

Aspirants can download the syllabus from the link provided above.\u00a0 It is advised to cover the whole syllabus because questions asked in each shift will be different and the areas focused on can also change. If it is difficult to cover the whole, try focusing on the repeatedly asked section, and don\u2019t skip those topics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Know Strong Areas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to divide your strong and weak portions. The more confident topics you are having are to be practiced and the weak portions are not to be neglected. Include more time for the weak topics in your study plan and try to improve them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Neglect the Hard Nut!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the exam is sectional and sometimes you can\u2019t choose the section of your choice, the selection of questions among the sections is very important. Many students try on questions in the same sequence of exams, and spend more time on those which are hard nuts! It is very important to have a mind to neglect the time-consuming questions. So, it is better you take one minute, of the whole sectional time duration, to scroll through the sectional questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Cut Off Score and Negative Marks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always keep in mind the previous cut-off marks, and keep a target for yourself. And, if it is a difficult paper, obviously the cut-off score will be less. So, in a hurry to solve maximum questions, never add negative marks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_SBI_Clerk_and_PO_Time_Management\"><\/span><strong>Tips for SBI Clerk and PO Time Management<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tips for SBI clerk time management as well as for the PO includes:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Check the subjects for each phase of both Clerk and PO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never keep mains preparation after the prelims result.
