Bank P.O is a very reputed post and also has good salary package and power as well. After gaining some experience as P.O, you can be promoted to the Manager Post . However this exam is not considered very tough but also not the easiest.You must have good English as well. Let’s see about the eligibility criteria first.


ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR A BANK P.O

•AGE-21 to 30 years for general category students. There is a
provision of age relaxation upto 5 years for a SC/ST candidates and Ex-
Serviceman, 3 years for OBC candidates and 10 years for physically
challenged persons.

•EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATION-You need at least a Graduation degree
from a recognized board or university.

•MARKS- The marks criteria differs with different bank but if you have 60% in graduation,then you are eligible for all most all banks.For SC/St there is a provision of marks relaxation upto 5%.

Now looking to your condition you have completed your graduation because you have already completed your bachelor's degree so you are eligible as far as educational qualification is concerned.

But you have only 51% marks in Graduation.This resists you from clearing the eligibility criteria of bank P.O.

You would be able to apply for bank P.O if and only if you belongs to SC/ST category because you have very less marks in graduation and there is nothing to do with your marks in class 10th or 12th.

Hello friend,

see the educational criteria varies from bank to bank.....

but most of the banks need a minimum of 55% marks in graduation.....for general category.
and for SC/SC/PC it is 50%....

so you are eligible if you comes under these category.....otherwise it is difficult to apply in certain banks which demands more than 51% in graduation.

Hello friend,
The eligibility criteria for the post of PO differ in private sector and public sector banks. To be eligible for most of the banks PO examination, candidates must have secured a minimum of 60% in +2 and 55% in bachelor degree exam.
Every bank mentions the eligibility criteria in the notification and hence you need to fulfill it. Now a days, apart from a bachelor’s degree, the banks also require the candidate to have fair knowledge in computer applications. So, you must visit the official website of banks to know their standards set for recruitment for the post of PO.
