Candidates who have not joined any coaching remain underconfident about their chances, whether they can crack the exam or not? If you are one of those who believe only coaching can clear your Reasoning concepts, then you are completely wrong.

In IBPS Reasoning, candidates need not using any kind of formulas or trick. Instead, they can go with the logical approach to reach out the conclusions.

The best approach that they can use to solve such questions is –

  1. You need to solve 30-35 questions in Prelims from the Reasoning section. This simply means you have to allot less than 1-minute time to each question. Rather than aiming for deep learning, your focus must be on getting correct answer in minimum time.
  2. Read the question carefully, there are many tricky questions asked in this section. Do not lose marks due to ignoring the question.
  3. The paper is objective, and you need to take care of two things: negative marking and random guesses. Nothing despairs a candidate more than wrong attempted questions.

Reasoning is the ability to think from perceived premise to a logical conclusion.
