IBPS Clerk Result Cut Off Marks for Interviews

There have been lot of speculations over what would be the ideal score for a candidate to get a interview call from Banks. After seeing what is happening in IBPS Probationary Officers interviews and previous bank interview, we can definitely have some idea on what can be a safe score?
We are presenting you with the ideal score, but before doing that let us analyze some facts.


- IBPS PO and Clerk had some cutoff marks for different categories.


- Students must remember that PO exam had a little bit of different pattern in question paper, it included subjective paper too, so there is lot of difference in ideal score.


- PO interview is not state wise where as clerk interview may occur according to the state from which you had given exams.


- Different banks have different vacancies in different states.


- Suppose you take a state like Uttar Pradesh or Andhra Pradesh, vacancies there would be   obviously quite high in comparison to other states. So candidates can expect cut off to be a little bit low.But since large number of candidates sit for the exams, in these states cutoff goes high.


- If you are from Delhi, Punjab, or other small states then you be better prepared for tough competition from fellow candidates.


Now as far as ideal score is concerned. different states will have different ideal scores. Different banks call candidates with even a lower cutoff, but students can expect that even though they have fixed, suppose cut off to be as 145, it would go up-to 160 in final selection. So it is advised to students with marks on lower side to avoid applying to all the banks, especially the top banks and those three to four banks which have issued notifications earliest.


Overall ideal score is 160+.
If we talk state-wise, we can expect cutoff to be like.


For bigger states like Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka , Bihar
Safe score to expect final selection : 180+
Safe score to get interview call       : 160+


For bigger states like Andhra Pradesh

Safe score to expect final selection : 190+

Safe score to get interview call       : 172+

For smaller states like Uttrakhand, Jharkhand, Punjab

Safe score to expect final selection : 190+

Safe score to get interview call       : 165+

The above marks are for General candidates, category students can take above marks as reference.
OBC students can deduct marks in about cutoff by 10 to 15. While SC/ST candidates can deduct marks by 20 to 30 marks.
