brother thanks a lot for ur guidance...u sugested the book of ms anwar...i went through it revised some problems...and at last i did quite well in the test and the thing i did well was these aptitude mcqs...i want another favour from u brother will u sugest me some short cuts to find the correct option?
i mean to say rather to do lengthy calculations some tips for every kind ov question?
actualy i was tought by my instructer during entry test prep..5 years before now idnt remember those tchniques so plz guide me

i can share a few. Hope you would find them useful.

1. FIND SQUARE ROOT:
to find a square of a 2 digit number ending in 5 simply sqaure teh 5 and multiply the digit preceding 5 by adding 1 to it. e.g
45=4*5 and square of 5 is 25 so answer would be 2025
75 squared equales 8*7 and 25 equals 5625


2. SOLVING FRACTIONS:
to solve fractions, first make the denominators of the fractions equal by multiplying and dividing by a suitable number. then simply add the numerators. e.g

1/2 +7/8 multiplying 1/2 when multiplied and divded by 4 becomes 4/8 so the answer will be 11/8

SQUARING A DECIMAL:
(0.002)^2

first square 2 that is 4 and double the number of digits to the right of decimal.
(0.002)^2=0.000004
(0.003)^3=0.000027


to multiple any number of a decimal, don't waste ur time doing the laborious work: for example (1.3/4)*200/13 would appear to be a heck of a difficult question for someone who doesn't know the trick. simply convert 1.3 into fraction by shifting the decimal once place right to it.

(13/10*4)*(200/13) after cancelation the answer would be 5


These are few basic quick math tricks. keep practicing these cuz practice makes man perfect and it's likely that you might even develop your own tricks that might help you getting the most complex calculation done within seconds

can any one will help me preparing for secp test?
pattren?segments?etc
will it be on same patteren as of sbots?

I think it would be on same pattern as sbots test, so just sharpen your verbal, quantitaive, IQ and GK skills. As they havn't provided any pattern so we must be ready for any thing. I am expecting a short note (role of SECP type) and some other questions related to economy.

any news about the result of SBOT, coz nts office is not giving clear reply as they were saying we have already handed it over to State bank

No idea. i was wondering they have announced they result of Punjab vocational training council test which was held on same day then why not SBP?

I Guess RAZ can give us more accurate info about it

frends! haf patience..we must not forget that state bank is a public institution [:P]

when state bank will actually call for an interview?

if things go at this pace, hopefully they will call for GDs and interviews next year [:P]
