Expert’s Curated Reasoning Ability Preparation
Tips for Banking Questions
If you aim to get recruited in any Public Bank then you must be knowing that cracking the
recruitment exam is the only way to get there. Among lakhs of students who appear every
year for the banking exams, only a handful qualify. An aspirant should focus on the complete
syllabus of all the sections to ace this examination. Major posts for which these banks
conduct recruitment exams are
1. Bank PO (Probationary Officer)

2. Bank Clerk
3. Bank SO (Specialist Officer)
These exams mainly comprise 3 major subjects i.e. Reasoning Ability, English and
Quantitative Aptitude. The Reasoning section is one of the most tricky sect ions in banking
examinations. The major topics from the Reasoning section are Puzzles and Seating
Arrangement, Syllogism, Blood Relations, Direction Sense, Inequalities, Input-Output, etc.
The below points decode the Reasoning Ability Section of different prestigious Banking
examinations.
Exam Difficulty Level 1
Bank Clerk/PO Prelims, Office Assistant, and Cooperative Banks
Let's have a look at the experts' preparation tips for level 1 banking questions. Certain
questions in exams like IBPS Clerk prelims, SBI Clerk prelims, etc. follow the metric level
pattern of questions. Most of the questions asked in these kinds of exams are easy and
can be attempted with the prior knowledge of reasoning that you have acquired in your
school time.
Logical thinking plays an important role in solving the questions of Reasoning.

Practice basic questions of Reasoning from some of the most important topics such as
inequalities, direction sense, etc. These questions build a strong foundation on which
the other questions are based.
Try solving Puzzles and understand the logic behind the problem. Direction Test is
another important topic, you will be using the knowledge of how the North, South, East,
and West directions are represented on paper, you won't be able to derive the correct
answer.
Bank Clerk/SO Mains, Officer Scale I, Insurance, Grade B exams & Grade A Preliminary exams
Compared to the level 1 questions, the difficulty level of questions in such exams is
moderate and the application part of the concept is more prominent in this section.
Some tips for level 2 difficulty questions are mentioned below.
The logic becomes more deep and wide for these types of questions. For example, if
you were playing with Circular Seating Arrangement at the metric level, here questions
of Circular Seating Arrangement with people facing inside as well as outside might
appear in the exam.
The logic used in questions like coding and decoding will be a bit more complicated to
crack.
While solving questions from this level, if you feel that you are taking more time than
usual, there might be chances you have not covered all your basics. In this case, you
need to go back to level 1 questions and try solving questions from there and then come
back to this level.
SBI PO Mains, IBPS PO Mains, LIC AAO, Grade A Officer, and Officer Scale 1 Mains Exam
This level of questions of Reasoning Ability are comparatively tough to solve but not
impossible. Candidates who are appearing in the mains exams of SBI PO, IBPS RRB
Officer Scale 1, etc. Few tips that might be of great help for you are as follows.
At this level, the examiner tests not only your concepts but your time management in a
strict manner. What you can do here is to think out of the box so that you can find out
the answer to the question in the least possible time and that too accurately.
Considering the example of the seating arrangement question again, in this level of
difficulty they shall provide a Circular Seating Arrangement with people facing inside
as well as outside with additional attributes associated like date of births, favorite
book, etc.
Practicing a variety of questions as mentioned in the book becomes essential in this

level of reasoning questions because multiple approaches are used in one single
question and it is good to know as much as you can.
Expert Curated Preparation Tips & Tricks for Reasoning Ability
Aspirants need not worry as the below points have complete details on how to prepare for
the Reasoning Ability for various upcoming banking examinations by explaining the
guidance on how to proceed with it. Let us have a look at some of the key points given below
to follow.
Learn the Fundamentals
The candidates must be thorough with the fundamental concepts. There are ample
topics in the reasoning section which act as low-hanging fruits in the exam. With a
thorough understanding of the basics, the candidates can ensure scoring enough marks
for them in the exam.
The second important thing is the ability to comprehend the question and understand
what the examiner intends to ask. This ability itself shall help the candidates tackle the
question.
Master the Basic Calculations then Switch to Advanced Level

The candidates must start practicing easier questions first. Such easy questions will help
them clear your basics. Thereafter a gradual increase in the difficulty level of practice
questions is the right approach of preparation.
Once all the fundamentals are mastered, the candidates can approach the questions
which are actually asked in the exam. The candidates who shall go on to practice even
the slightly harder questions shall have an edge as they shall find the questions much
easier on the day of the actual examination.
Attempt Mock Tests

In the final stage of preparation, candidates must try to appear for as many mock tests
as possible. The aspirants can download the Testbook App to find a plethora of mock
tests, sectional tests, previous year papers, etc.
Attempting the mock tests will allow you to identify your strengths and weaknesses.
The candidates shall also be able to plan a suitable strategy that shall also help them on
the day of the exam.
Important Topics To Cover in Reasoning for Banking Exams

The topics covered in the Reasoning Ability section are explained further which are asked in
most of the banking examinations. The most important topics in this exam can be easily
figured out as the trend for the examinations remains predictable every year.
Moreover, some analysis on the previous year’s papers of different banking exams gives us an
idea that every year questions from Puzzles & Seating Arrangement, Syllogisms, Coding-
Decoding, etc. are asked regularly and hold the maximum weightage in the banking
examinations.
Puzzles & Seating Arrangement
The seating arrangement questions involve arranging persons or objects in accordance
with the given set of conditions and the parameters associated with them. Conditions
could include the pattern of seating i.e. circular table, linear rows, floor-based, etc.
Puzzles are a set of raw information which are presented in a jumbled format. These
pieces of information should be used to obtain a systematic sequence of data based on
the conditions provided.
These types of questions are time-consuming. However, the most important aspect
regarding these types of questions is that upon finding the solution, 4 to 5 questions can
be answered in a go as they form a set. Hence a great hold on such types of questions
The basic idea of including such questions in the banking exams is to check the
candidate’s ability to process and handle various random pieces of information in large
numbers at the same time.
Syllogism
Syllogism involves drawing inferences and conclusions based on propositions or
premises.
The questions involve a set of provided statements. The statements are followed by
conclusions. Based on these statements the candidates have to decide which of the
given conclusions hold true.
Upon clear understanding of the concepts and fundamentals, such types of questions
can be easily tackled within less time.
Coding-Decoding
The basic idea behind these questions is to judge the candidate’s ability to decipher
unconventional patterns or rules.
These questions involve encrypting and decrypting words, letters, sentences, etc. on the
basis of the given set of rules. These are the quintessential Reasoning Ability questions
wherein extensive use of logic is required.
In order to tackle such questions, the candidates must be thorough with the order of
alphabets both in a forward and backward manner, knowing their positional value, etc.
Direction & Distance

This question involves the calculation of distance covered, the final position reached,
etc.
At times such questions are also asked in a group i.e. after solving the question, the
candidates shall be in a position to answer 4 to 5 questions at a time.
In order to master such questions, that candidates are required to have an excellent
understanding of main directions (i.e. North, East, West & South) and sub directions i.e.
South-west, North-east, etc. The knowledge of the Pythagoras theorem is also required
in order to calculate distance.
Miscellaneous
Miscellaneous questions in the Reasoning Ability section include questions on
inequalities, coded inequalities, blood relations, etc.
The difficulty level of such questions is moderate and they also demand a crucial
understanding of the fundamental concepts.
The number of questions asked from such topics usually varies and do not remain
constant.
Smart Tips for Reasoning Ability of Banking Exams

The aspirants can find various smart preparation strategies given further which can help
them to ace the Reasoning Ability section of various upcoming Banking exams.
Most of the banking examinations have sectional timings, i.e. you will be required to
solve the reasoning section in the stipulated time. Therefore, maintaining speed without
compromising on accuracy becomes crucial. Testbook offers various mock tests which
will help the candidates hitting the right combination of speed & accuracy.
Segregate your strong and weak zones. Candidates can find umpteen books that could
suggest easy and difficult topics. However, it varies as per an individual’s intellect. Hence,
candidates must practice enough to find their strong and weak areas.
The candidates can check various courses offered by Testbook for the preparation of
various banking examinations. Our experts in different subjects will help you understand
all the topics and will guide you right from the foundation level to the advanced.
