Response Sheet and Correct Answer Key Also Available
This is one of the notable updates in the current IBPS PO cycle.
The scorecard page includes a hyperlink for “Response Sheet and Correct Answer key.”
Candidates can use this link to access their recorded responses and the corresponding correct answers.
This gives candidates an opportunity to check how they performed question by question.
It also helps them understand the difference between their expected score and the score finally displayed by IBPS.

Candidates do not need to look for a separate public PDF.
The link is available on the score display page itself.
Follow these steps:
- Open the IBPS PO scorecard page.
- Log in with your credentials.
- Check your Prelims score.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page.
- Click “Response Sheet and Correct Answer key.”
- Check your recorded responses and correct answers.
- Save the response sheet for reference.

Why the Response Sheet Matters
The response sheet is useful beyond checking individual answers.
Candidates can compare:
Recorded Response → Correct Answer → Final Score
This can help them identify questions they got wrong.
It can also help them understand their section-wise performance.
For candidates preparing for future banking exams, the response sheet can be useful for analysing mistakes.
What Should Candidates Do Now?
Candidates who qualified Prelims should prioritise the Mains exam.
The Mains examination is scheduled for October 4.
Use the scorecard to understand your Prelims performance.
Then move on.
Revise important topics.
Take full-length Mains mocks.
Work on time management.
Focus on General Awareness and other Mains-specific areas.
The next major checkpoint is now the Mains examination.
