Success Story of Alok Verma| Cleared IBPS Clerk

Alok Verma’s Success Story

I started the banking exam preparation in 2020. The journey was full of ups and downs. In the beginning, I was unable to crack the prelims exam but after continuous hard work, I cracked these two examinations including IBPS Clerk & IBPS RRB Clerk.

Which exams did you appear in till date and what were their results?

I started my preparation in 2020 and filled all the banking examination forms. In the beginning, I appeared in RBI assistant, SBI clerk and RRB office assistant but could not pass the prelims exam. Later, I cleared the prelims examination of RRB officer scale-1, IBPS PO and SBI PO but failed in mains exam. In 2021, I cleared all the prelims examinations except SBI PO. But the mains results were not in my favour. SBI clerk mains out by 3.25 marks, RRB officer scale-1 out by 2 marks and IBPS PO mains out by 2.5 marks. But finally got success in IBPS RRB Office Assistant 2021 and IBPS Clerk 2021.
