Why Preparation Matters
SBI Clerk Prelims 2025 is about to begin on September 20th. If you're taking the test for these 5180 clerk vacancies, you know that studying alone isn't enough; a little practice and exam preparation are also essential for exam day.
Exam Schedule and Admit Card
Exams will be held on September 20th, 21st and 27th and your admit card is already available on sbi.co.in.
To help you stay tension free on exam day and ensure everything runs smoothly, I've created a short checklist and some important guidelines you should remember. Be prepared so that you don't have any problems as soon as you enter the exam hall.
Essential Items to Bring
First of all – don't forget the basics of your exam. This is absolutely non negotiable.
- Admit Card: You won't be allowed entry without your admit card, simple as that. So put it in your bag first.
- Photo ID Proof: Carry an original ID proof and a self attested photocopy of it. Such as Passport, Aadhaar, PAN Card, Driving License, Voter ID, or a Bank Passbook with an attested photo. You will need to give the photocopy to the invigilator along with your admit card and the original only for verification. If they have even the slightest doubt about your identity, they will not allow you to take the SBI Clerk exam. So, double check both of these things beforehand.
Biometric Verification Tip
A small, important tip – biometric verification is done in the SBI Clerk exam. This means your fingerprints will be scanned. Therefore, avoid applying henna, ink, or any chemical based substance to your hands. Doing so ensures proper scanning and avoids unnecessary delays. It's a simple matter, just be careful.
Exam Discipline and Rules
Look, there's absolutely no room for jokes here – exam discipline and honesty are paramount.
If you attempt to cheat, try to push someone out of your seat, act rudely, or employ any other methods of cheating, you will be disqualified right away. And you may be banned not only from this test, but from future bank tests permanently or temporarily. Plain and simple, it's just not worth the risk.

Prohibited Items
- What not to take: Mobile phones, pagers, smartwatches, or any communication devices are strictly banned in the exam hall. If you are found with these items, your candidature will be cancelled and you will also face disciplinary action. Simple solution – leave them at home.
Exam Structure and Tips
Let's do a quick recap so you don't get surprised in the exam hall.
- Question Breakdown: There will be a total of 100 questions. Of these, 30 will be from English, 35 from Numerical Ability and 35 from Reasoning Ability.
- Time Management: You will get only 1 hour of time, meaning time management is very important.
- Negative Marking: And yes, there is negative marking as well. 0.25 marks will be deducted for every wrong answer. Meaning, it would be better to think twice before answering.
Final Advice for Success
These are some important things to keep in mind on exam day. Keeping these things in mind will significantly reduce your stress and allow you to focus solely on demonstrating your knowledge in the exam.
