But to their dismay, this strategy won’t be working anymore as so many questions from the other topics like directions, etc. are being asked in the form of puzzles only. The only way to make the grade in this particular section in the forthcoming exam of IBPS RRB is to practice continuously with all your heart and soul. Following is the syllabus of Reasoning Ability for IBPS RRB 2017 Examination:
