If you don't know the meaning of the word, then you'll be in big trouble and face difficulty in understanding the sentence and all your reading speed will be spoiled. A good vocabulary is a must to improve your comprehension skill, accuracy, and speed.

  • Important topics in the vocabulary and comprehension section are cloze test, reading comprehension, fill in the blanks, antonym and synonym, para jumble. Candidates must practice these topics every day to have a stronghold.

Tips to Improve Reading Comprehension for SBI Clerk 2021:

  • Understand and analyze your reading style - Before you can improve your comprehension skill, you must reevaluate how you read and what are your limitations. Try to read various kinds of difficult articles to check your patience and understanding level. As you read, try to notice your reading and understanding pattern. For example, if you lose concentration in few minutes every time you read, acknowledge that fact and try to push yourself to slowly increase that mark. Remember to take a break every time you lose your attention initially. Gradually target for a better attention length.

  • Expand your reading potential and genre - Don't limit yourself to one field of interest. Though the economy, market, money, etc. are relevant as far as bank exams are concerned but try to push yourself to various fields such as literature, philosophy, history, anthropology, etc. You can start reading any standard newspaper like The Hindu or Time of India, or else you can read articles online on a laptop or on any mobile app. We would recommend you to read on digital media, as you'll be reading on a computer screen in the exam. Online reading habits will definitely help you on exam day.
