Question 1

How is the final score calculated in IBPS PO/Clerk?

Accepted Answer

The final merit is usually a combination of Prelims (scaled) and Mains (scaled) marks. The exact weightage—e.g. Prelims 25%, Mains 75%—is given in the exam notification. Some exams also have an Interview stage. This predictor uses an illustrative formula; check the official advertisement for the exact calculation.

Question 2

What are prelims and mains weightage?

Accepted Answer

Prelims is typically given a lower weight (e.g. scaled to 50 in final merit) and Mains a higher weight (e.g. 150–200) so that the main exam has more impact. The notification specifies the exact scaling. Enter your obtained and total marks in this tool to get an estimated final score.

Question 3

Can I predict my final score before the result?

Accepted Answer

Yes, approximately. Once you have your expected or actual Prelims and Mains marks from the answer keys, you can use this predictor to see how they might combine into the final score. Actual final scores are declared by the conducting body; this tool is for estimation only.

Question 4

Does the final score include the interview?

Accepted Answer

For exams that have an interview (e.g. IBPS PO), the final selection is often based on Mains + Interview. The exact formula is in the notification. This tool only combines Prelims and Mains; it does not include the interview stage.

Question 5

Where is the official final merit formula?

Accepted Answer

The recruiting body (IBPS, SBI, etc.) publishes the final merit calculation in the exam notification and result notice. Use this predictor for a quick estimate; always refer to the official source for your exam cycle.
