Although the tests differ for Probationary officers and Clerks,the pattern/ blueprint is mostly same.For all those attending banking exams for the first time,here is a sketch of the question paper.All public sector banks follow similar test pattern for recruitment of Clerk & PO posts.
Duration: The Objective tests in bank recruitments are conducted between 90 mins(clerks) – 150 mins (PO). The descriptive test or english language test is usually conducted for 45 – 60 mins.The process might look complex & time consuming, but with the government planning common test for bank jobs, hope prevails.
Papers: The following are some of the common papers in objective examination,
Banks also have a descriptive test, which is conducted to check your knowledge in english.This descriptive exam has a duration of 60 mins & is conducted for 100 marks, but the marks are not considered for final selection.
Cut-off: Candidates scoring above a minimum cut-off are ranked based on their marks in Objective test & merit list is prepared with the candidate scoring the highest mark at the top.The shortlisted are then called for Group Discussion or Interview.
Whatever it may be – there is lot of buzz to know about upcoming bank exams in 2011

Objective test is first evaluated.So if you are not scoring above minimum cut-off, your descriptive test wont be evaluated.

from objective or descriptive which is evaluated first in order to filter out the candidates?????
How can we believe that bank recruitment is purely based on performance in written test and other processes when they won't give a copy of our omr sheet and key answers soon after examination
yes, there is difference in OBC and general specialy in PO exams as it is conducted at all india level
For clerical post state OBC and cast certificate with creamy layer is required.
Creamy layer is impp in both PO and clerck exam.

Is there any difference by applying in obc and general category apartfrom age relaxation.becoz many students are saying that obc category candidates dont mix with genral candidate.kindly answer to my question.i m asking for both po and clerk in psu banks
