How to Check Your IBPS PO Prelims Result Online
First thing’s first – log onto the official IBPS portal (ibps.in). Once you’re on the homepage, look for the tab titled “CRP PO/MT‑XV.” Clicking that reveals a dropdown where you’ll see “Preliminary Exam Result.”
You’ll need two pieces of information to get in: your Registration Number and either your password or the date of birth you entered on the admission form. After typing those in, hit “Submit” and the system will pull up a simple “Qualified” or “Not Qualified” badge next to your name.
Keep in mind the result window closes on October 3, 2025, so make sure you check before the deadline. If you miss it, you’ll have to wait for the next recruitment cycle.
- Open ibps.in in a secure browser.
- Navigate to "CRP PO/MT‑XV" → "Preliminary Exam Result".
- Enter Registration Number + Password or DOB.
- Click "Submit" to view your status.
- Take a screenshot for your records.
What Happens After You Qualify – Preparing for the Mains
If the system shows a “Qualified” tag, congratulations! That means you’ve cleared the cut‑off and earned a seat in the next round. The Mains exam is slated for October 12, 2025, and it’s a full‑scale test covering Reasoning, Quantitative Aptitude, English, General Awareness, and Computer Knowledge.
Here’s a quick game plan to keep you on track:
- Study Schedule: Block out at least three hours daily for the next three weeks. Rotate subjects so you stay fresh – two days for Quant, one for Reasoning, etc.
- Mock Tests: Aim for at least five full‑length mock papers before the exam. Analyze each result to spot weak spots.
- Current Affairs: Spend 30 minutes each evening scanning reputable news portals and making note of major economic events, banking reforms, and government schemes.
- Computer Basics: Brush up on MS Office shortcuts and basic Excel functions – they often appear in the computer section.
- Admit Card: The official admit card will drop on the website a week before the Mains. Keep an eye on the “CRP PO/MT‑XV” section and download it as soon as it’s live.
Remember, the prelims score is only a qualifying filter; it won’t count toward your final ranking. The final merit list will be compiled from your Mains marks and the interview performance that follows.
For those who don’t make the cut this time, don’t lose heart. IBPS runs multiple recruitment drives throughout the year – Clerk, Specialist Officer, and Regional Rural Bank exams are all on the horizon. Keep sharpening your skills and you’ll be better positioned for the next round.
Landing a Probationary Officer role opens the door to a stable banking career, attractive salary packages, and a clear promotion pathway. Once selected, you’ll undergo a rigorous training program before stepping into your posting at one of the 11 participating public sector banks.
