Tips & Strategy for IBPS PO Data Interpretation & Analysis

November 7, 2017, 6:41 am

Hello and welcome to exampundit. Today we are sharing an article on Data Interpretation & Data Analysis for IBPS PO Mains shared by our very own V Pandey.



I appeared in SBI PO main as well as GD/PI..
But unfortunately I didn't score well in GD/PI so, got rejected.
My score in main = 65/200 and 90.13/250
In Math my score was 16.75

I know I am not the right person to suggest anyone since I have not successfully cleared every phase of any exam yet. Still I am sharing as I am happy with my score which will give me coveted output very soon.

I want to share some tips on How to score around 20-25 easily in IBPS PO Mains.

Firstly, I would request you cover all the chapters I am sharing with you.

Important Chapters


  1. Ratio & Proportions
  2. Percentage
  3. Profit & Loss
  4. Compound Interest + Partnership
  5. Time & Work
  6. Boats and Streams
  7. Probability
  8. Permutation & Combinations

Advertisement





Believe me, these chapters will cover almost 75% of the total marks in IBPS PO DI & DA. Rest can be covered by preparing Mensuration.

Tips from my side:

Complete all the chapters properly and try to understand the concept of each chapter rather than going for short-cuts.

Clear all the chapters before attempting mock tests. Because Mock Tests are not that important compared to clearing concept.

Sponsored


In mock tests, you spend 5 hours regularly (3 hours mock + 2 hours explanations) instead if you spend 3 hours on clearing concepts, it will be more beneficial for you.

In the real examination, all the given Data are related to one another. So understanding the concept is extremely important here.

To gain maximum benefit, practice a chapter continously until you are satisfied with it.

I am not sharing any strategy here as everyone should have their own strategies.

The Main exam also consists of an English Language Descriptive Writing Test.
  • Questions: 2 (1 on essay writing; 1 on letter writing)

In the IBPS PO 2017 Mains Descriptive Writing Section, there will be two questions: Essay Writing and Letter Writing.

 Click Here To Read: Sample Essay With Proper AnalysisClick Here To Read: Sample Letter – Proper Format


As essay writing is slightly longer than letter writing, candidates are advised to allocate their exam time accordingly.

IBPS PO Mains Descriptive Writing: Evaluation Criteria

There are no set evaluation criteria for the descriptive section paper; however few common things that are taken in to consideration are:

Content: Address the topic from differing viewpoints and cover various aspects. Provide details, examples and explanations. The examples should support the point of view shared.

Formal Requirement: Especially for letters, strictly adhere to the prescribed format. If it is not present, marks might be deducted. For essays, make sure you don’t exceed the mentioned word limit. Structure the essay in multiple paragraphs.

Structure and Coherence: Make sure you address each of the following while developing any essay. 

  • Does each paragraph contain just one idea or concept?
  • Does the evidence presented support the writer’s argument? 
  • Does this paper have a beginning (introduction), a middle (body), and an end (conclusion)?


Grammar, Vocabulary and Spelling should be carefully checked for both letter and essay writing.

IBPS PO Mains Descriptive Writing: How to Prepare

  1. Read newspapers, magazines, novels etc.
  2. Start writing. Pick up any topic and practice writing.
  3. Edit once you are done with writing to give the entire write-up a proper structure
  4. Analyze & Evaluate: It’s a good idea to let another person (preferably one who is good at writing) analyze and evaluate your writing.
  5. Continue this cycle of writing editing and analysing till you are satisfied with the essay or precis. 
  6. Stick to the word limit provided. If no word limit is provided, try to limit your essay to around 250-300 words.
  7. Avoid using colloquial, slang, SMS ‘lingo’ while you type. No using “I’m”, “wat”, “thx”,”ASAP”, “gr8” etc. or informal words such as ‘veggies’ instead of vegetables, ‘Kids’ instead of Children, ‘Anyway’ instead of Nevertheless etc.
