What to Check

The Officer Scale I prelims has two tests: Reasoning (40 questions, 40 marks, 25 minutes) and Quantitative Aptitude (40 questions, 40 marks, 20 minutes). You must clear the cut-off in both tests to be shortlisted for the Main exam, so do not skip either section. For every wrong answer, one-fourth (0.25) of the marks for that question is deducted; a question left blank carries no penalty. Your exam date, shift and centre are only on the call letter, so check it as soon as you download it. If you chose a scribe in your application, IBPS will open a separate online link for scribe details, and you must bring the call letter along with the scribe declaration on exam day. Under the IBPS schedule, the prelims result is expected in December 2026 or January 2027, followed by the Main exam in the same window and interviews for officers in January/February 2027.
