Reading Comprehension (RC) is a high-weightage component of the English Language section in the IBPS PO exam. It tests your ability to read, understand, analyse, and interpret passages drawn from diverse sources such as editorials, business articles, social issues, and reports. Unlike grammar or vocabulary questions, RC demands sustained attention, logical reasoning, and the ability to distinguish between explicit information and implied meaning. Mastering RC is crucial not only for the English section but also for the overall cut-off, as it often carries the highest marks within English. This chapter is structured to build your skills progressively. It begins with the foundations of reading comprehension, explaining what the test actually measures and how to approach a passage. It then covers the various question types—main idea, detail, inference, vocabulary, tone, and purpose—and the specific demands of each. You will learn active reading strategies, including how to skim for structure and scan for details, and how to identify the central theme. The chapter also addresses special formats such as multiple-passage questions and vocabulary-in-context. Finally, it highlights common exam traps, offers time-management techniques, and provides a practice plan. To study effectively, read each section carefully, apply the strategies to sample passages, and review your mistakes. Consistent practice with timed passages will improve both accuracy and speed. Remember that RC is a skill built over time, so regular, focused practice is key.
