Besides time management, :Tips to Crack IBPS PO Exam
1. Don’t try to attempt every question:  The main focus focus should be on clearing sectional and overall cut-off. Sometimes while trying to attempt every question, we miss out the easy ones.
2. Don’t be Nervous: Many a times we find ourselves in a situation where we are not able to solve the questions from our favourite/strong topic. Don’t be nervous in those situations. Because nervousness leads to negative thoughts and that is not going to be
3. Pick the right questions: As soon as we see any question, we know that it can be solved easily or not and this comes with practice. So in a short span of 60 minutes, it is very much essential to choose the right question and skip the consuming ones.

"Candidates can leave your comments in the comment box. Any query & Comment will be highly welcomed. I will try to solve your query."
