IDBI Assistant Manager Exam 2021: The IDBI AM exam will most likely take place next month and preparing for general awareness in such a short time would be a herculean task. But if you are somebody who is preparing for SBI Clerk for the last 3-6 months or for any other banking exam which involves GK then you might be in safe hands. But for aspirants which weren’t preparing for GK would face issues not only with preparation but also with scoring better than fellow candidates. You will have to accept that you can’t score 50+ with one month of preparation.

| Static GK | Banking and Financial Awareness | Current Affairs |
| Static GK: It consists of static facts which have remained facts for a very long time, and they may or may not change in the coming time. For example – New Delhi being the capital of India is a basic static fact. | Banking and Financial Awareness – Now this one is obvious why bank-related exams will have these types of questions. Think of these questions as you are preparing for any company’s interview. Will they not expect you to know about their industry, markets, and the company itself? Similarly, banks will ask you about the banking industry, terminologies, abbreviations, full forms, RBI-related information, any major recent events which took place in the financial world. | Current Affairs – Generally, current affairs have a generalized outlook because they can be literally about anything from what is happening beyond Sun and which country just legalised bitcoin as its legal tender. It can range from topics such as politics, business, science, geography, technology, sports, etc. |
