-

IBPS conducts various exams such as IBPS PO, IBPS CLERK, IBPS SO, etc., to select the suitable candidate for the posts lying vacant in various nationalized banks. These posts are notified every year and aspirants look forward to the exam notifications. These notifications are released according to the ANNUAL EXAM CALENDAR released by IBPS in the beginning of the year. It helps the candidates to make adequate exam preparation for the exam they intend to take.
IBPS PO Exam 2020 is going to be released in the month of August- September 2020. The tentative dates for prelims exam are 3rd, 4th and 10th October 2020 and the Mains exam will be conducted on 28th November 2020. These dates have been announced in the Annual Calendar of 2020 exams by IBPS. As you can see, the time between prelims and mains exam is less than a month if you include the exam result date. The result of IBPS PO is announced after exactly one month of the exam date. It means that the result of IBPS PO Prelims 2020 will be announced on 10th November 2020.
If a candidate starts the exam preparation of IBPS PO Mains after the results then he or she will not get enough time to prepare effectively for the exam. It is advisable to prepare for both the phases simultaneously. The syllabus of IBPS prelims and mains is very vast. It needs thorough preparation. In case any of the bank job aspirants is planning to prepare for IBPS PO 2020 Exam then it is the right time to start the exam preparation for both the phases i.e. Prelims and Mains.
It is easy to prepare for both the phases of IBPS PO exam simultaneously because there are common sections. Let us discuss the exam pattern of both the phases so that it becomes easy for you to plan your exam preparation for both the phases simultaneously.
Exam Pattern of IBPS PO 2020 Prelims Exam
The IBPS PO preliminary examination has 3 sections namely English Language, Numerical Ability and Reasoning Ability. English Section carries 30 marks and Numerical Ability and Reasoning Ability carries 35 marks each. The entire question paper is to be attempted in 60 minutes. 
Exam pattern of IBPS PO 2020 Mains Exam
The IBPS PO preliminary examination comprises of 5 sections these are
1.  Reasoning and Computer Aptitude carries 60 marks
2.  General/Economy/Banking Awareness carries 40 marks
3.  English Language carries 40 marks
4.  Data Analysis & Interpretation carries 60 marks
5.  English Language (Letter Writing & Essay) carries 25 marks.
This section is allotted a total time of 180 for objective sections from 1 to 4 and 30 minutes for descriptive section i.e 5th section of mains exam.
There is sectional cut-off for IBPS PO Prelims exam to qualify for mains exam. Mains exam is again a HARD NUT TO CRACK as it is lengthy with descriptive exam in English.
English is one of the crucial sections in both the phases which need lot of practice of grammar rules and writing skills. The syllabus is same for both the phases therefore one can prepare simultaneously for both the phases.
Reasoning ability is asked exclusively in prelims where as it is asked in combination with computer aptitude. The syllabus of Reasoning is same but one has to prepare for the basic computer application theory which has lot of topics to be covered. It should be studied right from the beginning.
Data Analysis & Interpretation is not the part of Prelims exam therefore it also needs proper learning and practice to appear in the mains. Quantitative Aptitude syllabus is simple and one can prepare it easily because it does not include advance mathematics topics.
It is advisable to join online test series for IBPS PO exam besides joining IBPS Coaching Institute. Take full length mock tests for both Prelims and Mains after completing the entire syllabus effectively. Prelims phase is easy to qualify if you start early for the exam preparation. IBPS PO Mains exam is lengthy with five sections needs more learning. Make a balanced study plan for both the phases right from the day one of your IBPS PO Exam preparation.
Think positive and keep moving with the exam preparation with an aim to qualify prelims and reach the mains phase in the first attempt.
All the best!!!
