How long it take to crack sbi clerk if you have zero knowledge about English grammar? Should i go with banking or should shift it ?

Hello,

The level of SBI Clerk is comparatively easier to that of SBI PO, but then again standard of English in banking exams in pretty good compared to say, SSC CGL which often repeats its question which doesn't happen in case of banking exams.

Anyway, see it depends on you,if you're determined to make a career in banking, then you have to make efforts to improve upon the areas where you feel under confident.

The first thing I'll say is have a good mindset and attitude towards yourself,we all lack in certain areas but the scope of improvement is always there,if you have this attitude your journey ahead will be easier.

The first thing you can do is to have a good command over grammar for which you can use Wren and Martin book, get your concepts clear like Subject-Verb Agreement,Tenses, Prepositions, Idioms and Phrases, Adverb,Adjectives etc Once you build your foundation you'll find it easy to solve error detection,sentence rearrangement, words swap etc, you can use Word Power Made Easy to improve your vocabulary.

Now,coming to one of the most important part, do read The Hindu on a regular basis especially the editorial part and this is something which you shouldn't neglect at any cost,the reason I'm putting so much emphasis is because according to previous year trends, Reading Comprehensions and other sections have come directly from The Hindu,so reading this newspaper on daily basis will increase your vocabulary, knowledge,the speed of reading as well as help you in quickly answering the questions.
