SBI PO Preliminary Exam Analysis

June 20, 2015    

First slot of SBI PO Preliminary exam is over now. Now I am writing the exam analysis.
Difficulty level of the exam was same as Model paper we shared during past few days. There was no surprise factor.

Final tip for all the readers who are going to appear for SBI PO Prelim
exam is to download the Free Model papers here. Many questions were repeated from them.
