How we prepare and check our content

Students make study decisions based on what we publish, so we hold it to a clear standard.

Prepared by the CBTAdda content team · Updated 28 October 2026 · How we check our content

Exam patterns

Question counts, marks, timing and negative marking are taken from the latest official notification of each exam (IBPS, SBI, SSC and RRB). When a new notification changes the pattern, we update the page and its “Updated” date. Cut-offs and dates are only published once officially released.

Practice questions

Questions are written by our team in the style of real papers; they are not copied from official papers. Arithmetic questions are generated with the answer computed by code and then reviewed, so the stated answer always matches the working. Reasoning sets are written and solved by hand, and checked by a second person.

Previous-year papers

Where we publish previous-year or memory-based questions, we label them clearly with the exam, year and shift, and note when a question is memory-based rather than an official release.

Report an error

If you find a wrong answer or an outdated pattern, use the feedback button inside the CBTAdda app. We correct confirmed errors and update the page date.
