Quantitative Aptitude Section Strategy For IBPS RRB Mains 2017

As the IBPS RRB Exam is approaching, many of you must be anxious about the Quantitative Aptitude Section. Students, worrying about things is not an option. Stay positive as once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results. The level of every other section is only getting complex and convoluted, there is no doubt that this section too will be making your blood run cold. But one should not forget that a mix of accuracy and a good number of attempts can definitely turn the situation around in Quantitative Aptitude Section.

The total number of questions asked in this Section in IBPS RRB PO Prelims Examination will be 40. The amount of time that you need to spend on the Quantitative Aptitude Section is 39-41 minutes. The trick to make the grade in Quantitative Aptitude Section is pretty easy. Choose to attempt the questions on Quadratic Equations/ Inequalities (Quantity 1, Quantity 2), Simplification/ Data Sufficiency/ Quadratic Equations/ Approximation, and Number Series first. The total number of questions based on these topics will be 10. If we talk about the previous year Examination of IBPS PO RRB, there were 5 questions on Number Series, 5 on Quadratic Equations. There can be questions on Simplification/Approximation and Inequality too. So, this is how questions are framed on these topics. One should try to attempt the maximum number of questions within 9-11 minutes of time. Attempt at least 7-8 questions because this part is the easiest. After having attempted all these questions efficiently, go for Data Interpretation/ Caselet. There were 3 DI's in the previous year IBPS RRB Mains Examination so we can expect 15 questions on DI this year also. There is a possibility that a Caselet may be asked along with 2 DI's. One should try to attempt at least 10-11 questions as 3 out of every 5 questions in a DI are doable. The time limit for DI's should be 15-20 minutes. Attempt questions based on Arithmetic in the end. There were a total number of 15 questions from miscellaneous topics in IBPS RRB Mains 2016. 6 questions from Arithmetic Section too will be doable, so, try to attempt at least 5-6 questions within a time limit of 10-15 minutes.

Students, Quantitative Aptitude is a difficult this very section that can scare you out of your wits but do not forget that it can prove to be very scoring as well. The only way to score satisfactory marks in the section is strenuous practice. Work hard and everything will come up roses in the end.
