Prologue
- State bank of India (SBI) recently notified vacancies in specialist officer cadre.
- Some readers had been requesting the question papers. So here it is.
SBI Specialist: Written stage
DONOT waste time in GA/GK, Banking, current affairs and Marketing = because they’re not part of the exam.
Part I | Maths, reasoning, English | score not counted in merit list, but you need to cross minimum cutoff. |
Part II | Professional knowledge (PK) | score counted in merit list. |
Part I: Maths, English, Reasoning: How to approach?
- Its marks not counting in final merit list. But you’ve to cross cutoffs, otherwise your part II will not be evaluated.
- In other words, this is same like UPSC’s compulsory English language paper in Mains exam).
- Since its marks are not counted in merit list. You only need to cross the cutoff. Therefore, I don’t recommend separate books on maths/reasoning/English for this exam. You don’t need to “master” these topics. Just practice enough questions so you can tick 15-20 MCQs in each section and move on to part II (professional knowledge).
- For this, solve previous PO papers. [You don’t need ‘special’ papers for specialist officer- the routine PO papers also work fine- as far as maths, english, reasoning is concerned.
- Besides, whatever “mock” tests/ books are in the market, their MCQs are usually jugaad-lifted from previous PO exam papers.
- You don’t even need “brand new” paperset- pick whatever second hand/used paperset you can get from the local book-bazaar. In the Bank paperset market, three noted publication houses are: Arihant, Disha and Kiran publication. (Use anyone- whichever you can get cheap.)
- Even in those papersets, don’t waste time practicing everything. Just focus on following areas:
High priority areas in Part I (Maths, English, Reasoning)
REASONING |
These questions usually come in a set of 3-5 MCQs =12-20 MCQs are done. |
MATHS |
IGNORE: Trigonometry, quadratic equations, logarithms, coordinate geometry. Because they don’t ask it in SBI. So don’t waste time in those topics. |
ENGLISH |
|
- If you master above areas, then crossing the cutoffs in Part 1 should not pose big challenge.
- In the real-exam, DONOT waste time in solving 1,2,4… all MCQs in a linear fashion. I can’t predict cutoffs. But to be on safe side, at least 15 should be ticked in each section accurately before moving to next section. If time permits even after doing everything else, then tick more in the second round.
- In Bank exams, often sincere players fail, because they spent too much time in the English portion. Since English is relatively easy- so these people try to solve all English MCQs, before moving to next section. Avoid this stupid mistake.
Part II professional knowledge (PK): Systems/IT
- Total 50 questions.
- Its marks counted in final merit list. (Along with interview marks).
- Therefore, you must give highest priority to this area.
SBI Specialist Syllabus for System/IT/ Professional knowledge topic
As such SBI notification doesn’t give detailed syllabus. But if you observe the index of recently launched books, you can get a rough idea about what topics should be prepared (from your college books/GATE guidebooks/internet.) for example:
Disha publication book index says | Kiran Prakshan book index says |
|
|
From the indexes of these two books, you can see following topics are common
- fundamentals/basic concept
- computer Architecture and organization
- data structure
- networking and networking security
- operating system
- DBMS
- Software engineering
- Disha says programming, Kiran says “C programming”.
So first dig those common topics from whatever college textbooks/GATE guidebooks you’ve.Or through internet. I’ve also included the previous papers of SBI PO exam (professional knowledge section) below. Use them to get a better idea on what areas are to be covered- what is the depth and difficultly level of the papers.
Beyond that, I cannot say much because I’m a Pharmacist and not an IT graduate. If any senior player/ maestro wants to share more wisdom about the PK section- please post it under the comments.
