Salary Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How much time is needed to prepare for the IBPS RRB PO exam?
On average, 2–3 months of focused IBPS RRB PO preparation is enough if you dedicate 4–6 hours daily. Beginners may need slightly more time to cover the basics.
Can I clear the IBPS RRB PO in the first attempt?
Yes! With a structured plan, regular practice, and consistent effort, many candidates clear it on the first attempt.
How should I divide my time between Prelims and Mains preparation?
The 2 subjects—Reasoning and Quant—are common to both Prelims and Mains. However, the difficulty level is higher in Mains, with more complex and tricky questions.
By focusing on Prelims first, you automatically build a strong foundation for these 2 subjects in Mains.
Once that’s done, you mainly need to practice Mains-level Quant and Reasoning questions, and you need to learn the basics of the remaining subjects—GA, English, and Computer.
