Hello annapoorna,

Unfortunately according to the IBPS PO eligibility criteria one must have completed graduation in any discipline from a reputed college.

And students who are in 2nd or in final year cannot fill the form as the degree is required at the time of exam appearance, you can apply after you complete your graduation,

Till then you can prepare for the exam to get the lead and knowledge in the examination in later stages of your life.

I hope it helps.

• OBC-NCL: 3 years
• SC/ST: 5 years

• Ex-Servicemen, Commissioned Officers and Emergency Commissioned Officers (ECOs)/SSCOs who have served for at least 5 years of military service and have been released for dismissal or discharge on completion of assignment other than 5 years because of misconduct or inefficiency or physical disability due to military service or invalidation/Persons affected by 1984 riots/Jammu & Kashmir domiciled candidates (January 1, 1980 to December 31, 1989): 5 years

Hello Aravind,

Unfortunately you will not be eligible for IBPS PO if you belongs to General category because as per the eligibility criteria prescribed by Institute of Banking Personnel Selection, the candidate should have minimum age of 20 years and maximum age of 30 years on August 1st of the recruitment year and as you have mentioned that you born on April 22nd '99 so on April 22nd '21 you will complete your 30 years and on August 1st '21your age will be more than 30 years 3 months which makes you ineligible. But if you belongs to either of the mentioned category then you will have the age relaxation according to it and if you satisfies it then you can apply for IBPS PO 2021 :-

• SC/ST – 5 years
• Other backward classes – 5 years
• PWD categories – 10 years
• Ex-Servicemen – 10 years
• Domiciled candidates in Jammu & Kashmir during January 1, 1980, to December 31, 1989 – 5 years
• Persons who were affected during 1984 riots – 5 years

Hello Aspirant,

Yes, you can. As far as bank exams(Probationary and Clerk posts) are concerned , any candidate in age group of 20-30 can sit for the exam if he/she has a valid undergraduate degree in any discipline from a recognized university. Based on your category reservation ,you will get age relaxation too which you can check in detail in the exam's eligibility section. Coming to RRB ,the following are the exams:

RRB Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) Exam

Under Non-Technical Popular Categories, there are many posts like:

Commercial Apprentice

Station Master

Goods Guard    an dmany more.

Junior Accounts Assistant Cum Typist    .

Senior Clerk Cum Typist    Deg

RRB Junior Engineer (JE) Exam

RRB Assistant Loco Pilot (ALP) Exam

RRB Group D Exam/RRC Level 1 exam

So in railways , you can apply for non technical posts which require either graduation or 12th qualification. Technical posts will require technical degrees such as engineering as qualification ,so you may not be eligible for that. The average age limit for the various exams is at 18 minimum and about 32-33 years at maximum. Similar to bank exams , the age relaxation is provided to some reserved categories. Therefore , kindly go through the complete eligibility criteria for all posts to find out which is apt for your level of qualification.

All the best

Hello Aspirant,

Both IBPS PO and SBI PO exams will have a descriptive section along with the objective section. The descriptive test will begin immediately after the objective section so yes it will happen on the same day ie., on the mains exam day. The descriptive section will have both essay writing and letter writing questions for which you will be given 30 minutes to complete . The total marks for this section in IBPS PO is 25 and in SBI PO it will be 50. Both the questions will be usually based on current affairs, government schemes and policies, latest news, ethical subjects and more.
