Over the years since I’ve been mentoring aspirants, one thing I’ve realized is that it’s not always the syllabus or study hours that fails your preparation. Sometimes, it’s missing out on the correct information at the right time.
Every great journey begins with clarity and if you’re preparing for RBI Grade B 2025 exam, your first and most important step is understanding where to begin.
I still remember a student who was bright, consistent and did everything right until the RBI Grade B notification was out.
But that time, the notification was released earlier than expected and the last date to apply was just days after that. He was not aware that the notification was out, so he hadn’t filled the form and just like that, a full year of effort slipped through his fingers.
This was not because he lacked dedication but because he didn’t start from the source. He did not stay updated and eventually he had to wait another year to give this examination.
That’s why I always say that before you plan your strategy, go through the official RBI Grade B notification.
From the number of vacancies to important dates, everything is given in the notification has few changes made in the number of vacancies.
So even if you’ve seen previous notifications, make sure you go through the latest one to avoid missing any updates. A small detail can make a big difference in your preparation.
To make this easy for you, I’ve shared all the important points from the RBI Grade B notification in the sections below.
So, let’s begin and make sure you don’t miss anything important.
