Sample IDBI JAM Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your IDBI JAM exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Statements: All bags are pockets. Some pockets are pouches. No pouch is a case. Conclusions: I. Some pockets are not cases. II. Some bags are pouches.
A.Only conclusion I follows
B.Only conclusion II follows
C.Either conclusion I or II follows
D.Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Explanation: Since some pockets are pouches and no pouch is a case, those pockets which are pouches cannot be cases. Therefore, 'Some pockets are not cases' (Conclusion I) must be true. However, there is no direct relation between bags and pouches, so Conclusion II does not follow.
2Statements: Some keys are locks. Some locks are drawers. All drawers are keys. Conclusions: I. All keys are drawers. II. Some keys are drawers.
A.Only conclusion I follows
B.Only conclusion II follows
C.Both conclusion I and II follow
D.Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Explanation: Since all drawers are keys, and some locks are drawers, it implies some keys are drawers (which is Conclusion II). However, we cannot conclude that all keys are drawers (Conclusion I), as there could be keys that lie outside the drawer circle.
3Statements: Only a few cards are paper. No paper is plastic. All plastic is metal. Conclusions: I. Some cards are not paper. II. Some metal is not paper.
A.Only conclusion I follows
B.Only conclusion II follows
C.Neither conclusion I nor II follows
D.Both conclusions I and II follow
Explanation: The phrase 'Only a few cards are paper' implies that some cards are paper AND some cards are not paper (Conclusion I follows). 'No paper is plastic' and 'All plastic is metal' means all plastic is part of metal and cannot touch paper. Thus, the metal which is plastic cannot be paper, meaning 'Some metal is not paper' (Conclusion II also follows).
4Point A is to the east of Point B. Point C is to the south of Point A. If Point D is to the west of Point C, in which direction is Point A with respect to Point D?
A.North
B.Northeast
C.Northwest
D.Southeast
Explanation: Since A is east of B, C is south of A, and D is west of C, D lies south of the line AB. Thus, looking from D to A, the direction is North and East, which is Northeast.
5Introducing a woman, a man says, 'She is the only daughter of my father-in-law's only child.' How is the woman related to the man?
A.Wife
B.Sister
C.Daughter
D.Niece
Explanation: The man's father-in-law's only child is the man's wife. The woman is the only daughter of the man's wife. Therefore, the woman is the daughter of the man.
6If 'P @ Q' means P is the mother of Q, 'P # Q' means P is the father of Q, and 'P $ Q' means P is the sister of Q, which of the following expressions shows that A is the aunt of B?
A.A $ C @ B
B.A @ C $ B
C.A # C @ B
D.A $ C # B
Explanation: In 'A $ C # B', A is the sister ($) of C, and C is the father (#) of B. C's sister A is therefore the paternal aunt of B.
7In a certain code language, if the word 'BANK' is coded as 'AZMJ', how is the word 'DEBT' coded in that same language?
A.CDAS
B.EFCS
C.CFBU
D.BCAS
Explanation: Each letter of the word 'BANK' is shifted one position backward in the alphabet: B-1 = A, A-1 = Z, N-1 = M, K-1 = J. Applying the same rule to 'DEBT': D-1 = C, E-1 = D, B-1 = A, T-1 = S. The resulting code is 'CDAS'.
8In a coding system, if 'interest rates are rising' is coded as 'za ka la ma' and 'rising inflation rates' is coded as 'la ma ta', what is the code for 'interest' in this system?
A.za or ka
B.la or ma
C.ka or la
D.za or la
Explanation: Comparing both statements: 'rates' and 'rising' are common to both, and the common codes are 'la' and 'ma'. Therefore, 'rates' and 'rising' are coded as 'la' and 'ma'. The remaining words in the first statement are 'interest' and 'are', and the remaining codes are 'za' and 'ka'. Thus, 'interest' must be coded as either 'za' or 'ka'.
9In a certain code language, 'REGULATION' is coded as 'SDHTMZUPHM'. Using the same rule, how is the word 'DEPOSIT' coded in that language?
A.EFQPTJU
B.CDONRHS
C.EDQNTHU
D.CFONRJS
Explanation: The rule shifts letters by an alternating +1 and -1 pattern, starting with +1 for the first letter. Verify with REGULATION: R(+1)=S, E(-1)=D, G(+1)=H, U(-1)=T, L(+1)=M, A(-1)=Z, T(+1)=U, I(-1)=H, O(+1)=P, N(-1)=M = SDHTMZUPHM. Applying the same pattern to DEPOSIT: D(+1)=E, E(-1)=D, P(+1)=Q, O(-1)=N, S(+1)=T, I(-1)=H, T(+1)=U = EDQNTHU.
10Eight people A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H are sitting in a straight line facing North. C sits third to the right of G. E sits second to the left of G. Only one person sits between E and A. Who sits to the immediate left of G if A sits at one of the extreme ends?
A.E
B.B
C.H
D.Cannot be determined
Explanation: C sits third to the right of G (G _ _ C) and E sits second to the left of G (E _ G _ _ C). Only one person sits between E and A, and A must be at an extreme end. With 8 seats, the arrangement A _ E _ G _ _ C fills positions 1 to 8: A(1), _(2), E(3), _(4), G(5), _(6), _(7), C(8). The remaining seats (2, 4, 6, 7) are filled by B, D, F, and H, but no clue fixes any of them. Therefore the person to the immediate left of G (position 4) cannot be determined uniquely.

1Familiarize yourself with sectional timing: with only 25 minutes for 60 General/IT questions and 20 minutes for 40 English questions, speed is essential.
2Solve a mix of puzzles and seating arrangements daily to build speed in the Logical Reasoning section, which carries the highest weight (60 marks).
3Revise daily current affairs from the last 6 months, prioritizing financial and banking news, government schemes, and RBI announcements.
4Practice basic computer terms, memory units, shortcut keys, networking concepts, and IT abbreviation lists, as computer awareness is part of the 60-mark section.
5Keep a formula notebook for quantitative topics like percentages, SI/CI, ratio, averages, and time/work to quickly perform arithmetic calculations.
