Cracking the RBI Grade B exam in the first attempt typically requires 6 to 12 months of dedicated preparation, depending on your background and consistency. For candidates with a strong foundation in finance, economics, or management, a focused 6–8 months may suffice. However, aspirants from non-commerce or non-economics backgrounds might need closer to a year to build conceptual clarity, especially for Phase 2 subjects like Economic & Social Issues (ESI) and Finance & Management (FM). Daily study of 4–6 hours, combined with smart planning, regular mock tests, current affairs revision, and answer writing practice for the descriptive sections, is crucial. Consistency, discipline, and a well-structured strategy play a bigger role than the number of hours alone. With the right guidance—like that offered by C4S Courses—and a personalized study plan, cracking RBI Grade B in the first attempt is an achievable goal.
