400 marks in 2 Hours:
Just like IBPS clerical common exam the written test
for aao jobs is also computer based (online) & you
won’t have to shade circles in coding sheets.So time management is very
important.
Although the pattern looks similar to IBPS PO exams, there is a major
difference with respect to marks.First let us look at the AAO exam pattern
& section-wise marks.
As explained in the graphic above,
- candidates must attend 160 questions for 400 marks in 120 minutes.
- For each wrong answer, negative mark would be awarded to the tune of 0.25
No Descriptive Test: Although LIC had descriptive
english paper previously, LIC AAO exams 2013 does not feature it. Hence
weightage is more on objective english paper with 40 questions carrying 100
marks.
Qualifying: It is compulsory to pass in each section and also secure minimum marks totally
to qualify for interview stage.LIC will decide on sectional and total cutoffs
after the exam based on your collective performance.

keep in mind that these materials serve only as reference.The
