English Preparation tips – SBI Clerk 2022

This article covers all the topics in English that helps you in scoring good in less amount of time.

  • If specifically talking about Reading Comprehension, then try to avoid questions of Synonyms and Antonyms because not everyone has a good command over English Vocabulary. Although SBI clerk’s English section is comparatively easy to cope up with. You may attempt figures and para-jumbles since it is easy to attempt.
  • Don’t fear English of SBI Clerk at all but still if it is that you have no command over then you may have a look at Previous Year’s cut-off. Lat year’s cut-off was somewhere 75-80. Last to last year cut-off was even lesser. So, understanding this pattern, you will get one thing for sure that the cut-off for this year will be below 80.
  • Attempt 35 Questions each in reasoning and maths such that you need not require to attempt English section in SBI Clerk exam. You are good to go if you attempt 10 questions in English.
  • Sometimes aspirants tend to estimate number of questions attempted based on last year’s cut-off. Do not make this mistake because it might be the case that the difficulty level of previous year is different than this one.
  • Work on Accuracy more than speed.
