Add INDYASTORY on GoogleIBPS PO Prelims Exam Pattern
The IBPS PO preliminary examination consists of 100 questions carrying a total of 100 marks.
Candidates are given 60 minutes to complete the preliminary examination.
The preliminary test assesses candidates through sections covering areas such as English Language, Quantitative Aptitude and Reasoning Ability, in accordance with the applicable examination scheme.
Candidates should refer to the official IBPS recruitment notification for the precise section-wise structure and applicable examination instructions.
IBPS PO Main Examination Pattern
Candidates who qualify for the preliminary stage proceed to the main examination.
According to the examination pattern cited for the recruitment, the main examination consists of 170 questions carrying 200 marks, with candidates given 160 minutes.
The main examination is therefore substantially different from the preliminary test and requires candidates to prepare for a broader and more detailed assessment.
IBPS PO Negative Marking
IBPS applies negative marking to incorrect answers in the objective tests.
For an incorrect answer, one-fourth of the marks assigned to that question is deducted while calculating the corrected score.
No marks are deducted when a candidate leaves a question unanswered.
Candidates should therefore consider accuracy carefully when attempting questions, rather than making guesses without assessing the available options.
6,715 Probationary Officer Vacancies
The recruitment examination is being conducted for 6,715 Probationary Officer/Management Trainee vacancies, according to the recruitment information cited for the 2026 cycle.
Candidates should note that qualifying in the preliminary examination does not by itself constitute final selection. Candidates must clear the subsequent stages and satisfy the applicable eligibility and recruitment requirements.
Candidates Should Download the Scorecard Before the Deadline
Since the result link is scheduled to remain available only until September 30, 2026, candidates who have not yet checked their result should access the official IBPS website before the stated deadline.
It is advisable to download and save the scorecard rather than relying solely on the online result page.
Candidates should use only the official IBPS website for result-related information and avoid relying on unofficial links circulating through social media or third-party websites.
