Not just simplification &amp; approximation questions, even questions on data interpretation, profit &amp; loss, percentage, ratio &amp; proportion questions demand these calculations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can save a lot of time by memorizing tables until 30, squares &amp; square roots until 50 and cube &amp; cube roots until 30. Fix a time-slot on a daily basis to revise this list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Start doing these calculations in your mind when solving mock tests. In the beginning, it may take time &amp; you may feel frustrated but once you get a hang of it, it will definitely improve your performance &amp; overall score in the Prelims exam.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/sbi-clerk\/?ref=10103\">Take SBI Clerk Prelims Free Mock Test<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope that these tips will help you in bringing out your best in the reasoning section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SBI Clerk exam is a competitive test that requires smart preparation and practice.
