Hello,
Remember one thing,there is no short cut for success and please do not waste your time in finding methods of short cuts.
There is only one short cut and that is practice and only practice.Try to solve the previous years question papers,taking the time into consideration.
Once you get used to the type of problems being asked in the Bank clerk exams,the time will automatically take care of itself.

R.S.AGARWAL is one of the most preferable books for the bank exams.

So work hard,you'll get to your destination,because "HARD WORK PAYS".

GOOD LUCK.

For any exam first all you must understand what the structure and pattern of the exam is. You need to be well aware of what you will be tested upon. The bank test will test you on your aptitude level. So you need to be prepared in all the areas related to it. These will include DI, Logical reasoning, Mathematics, Verbal Reasoning. For these you mustcover all the topics. Start from simple problems and move on to the higher level problems. You can refer to books like R.S Agarwal and Oswal. These will give tips on how to solve problems quickly. Other than this newspapers and magazines will give you information regarding the General Knowledge section.
