Overall marks of 57+ is good for cracking prelims. It also depends on state to state cutoff. We are discussing on Karnataka cutoff for IBPS CWE Prelims. This time question pattern were slightly changed as regular question like Synonym & Antonym were not asked this time. Focus were much on other topics like error spotting.
In personal experience, I believe that the competition will be tougher this time due to many reasons like lesser vacancies, increasing applicants etc.
