Good news for SBI PO aspirants! The SBI PO 2025 notification is out with 541 vacancies to compete for. Registration runs from June 24 to July 14. And the Prelims exam is expected in July or August 2025. So, whether you target July or August, you need a perfect study plan to achieve your short as well as long-term goals. In this blog, we’ll help you with perfecting two 8-week study plans, including PracticeMock mock test slots. Plus, a free Prelims mock at the start to assess your baseline.
What Kind of Study Plan Should You Follow?
Your study plan should be flexible enough to cover both possible timelines, July and August, since the exact exam date hasn’t been confirmed yet. It’s wise to prepare as if the exam could happen by the end of July, but also be ready in case it takes place in early, mid, or late August. To help you plan better, we’ve created two separate study plans. You can follow them as they are or adjust them based on your personal schedule. Ideally, aim to follow Plan A, but Plan B is a great backup if the exam is held later.
Check out both plans below!
SBI PO 2025 Exam Study PLAN A: Prelims in July 2025 (8 Weeks)
If you’re targeting the earlier exam window, this 6-week plan is designed to help you complete the syllabus quickly and switch to full-length mocks early. It includes weekly PracticeMock tests, revision sessions, and strategic error analysis to ensure you’re exam-ready by the third or fourth week of July.

Practical Preparation Tips to Maximize Your Exam Prep
Preparing for the SBI PO can feel like a hard task. You can make great progress every week with the right plan and approach. Studying for long hours is not enough. You need smart strategies that help you stay focused, learn more effectively, and maximize your scores. These five practical tips will help you make the most of your study plan. These ideas will help you use your time smartly, fix your weak areas, whether you have 6 or 8 weeks, and build the confidence you need to clear the exam.
Let’s look at how to study smarter, not harder.
1. Build Solid Discipline first
Start with a free mock test as a diagnostic test to understand your current level and what you need to do to improve your knowledge and skills.
So, you should:
- Pinpoint your weakest subjects
- Use weekly tests to track progress
- Reset goals based on feedback
2. Smart Revision is Better than Useless Repetition
Short, focused revisions always beat cramming. So, to revise smartly, you need to revise via:
- Daily flashcards
- Weekly theme review
- Fix errors right after tests
3. Mimic Real SBI PO Exam Conditions
Practice as if it’s the real exam you’re attempting.
So, you need to:
- Take strictly timed tests
- Avoid distractions or a stressful environment
- Take as many Full mock tests as possible with breaks
4. Balance Content & Practice
Theory alone won’t help you score high in the exam. So, get ahead in your preparation this way:
- Theory sessions in the first half of the week
- Practice quizzes and mocks in the second half
- Revise weak points immediately
5. Stay Updated & Balanced
Current affairs are as important as your physical and mental fitness. So, follow this daily routine to ensure you are mentally and physically ready to take on the exam:
- 10–15 min daily news routine
