Hi, I'm a 25 M thinking to give an attempt of RBI grade B in 2026

.

Hi guys, let me be clear about my situation.

I’m 25, have done my graduation in Nursing, and currently I’m teaching in a nursing college. My schedule is honestly quite packed.

I leave home around 7:00 AM and usually get back by 6:00–6:30 PM. Since I live alone, I also have to cook my own dinner and manage everything myself, so by the time I actually sit to study for RBI Grade B, it’s already pretty late.

As for prep status:

English: I’d say I have a decent hold over most major Phase 1 topics. Right now I’m able to score around 15/30

Quant: I’ve already made notes for arithmetic, DI, and number system. Concepts are mostly clear, just need solid practice

Reasoning: This is my weakest area right now. I did study it in the past, but honestly I’d consider myself a complete beginner at the RBI level

GA/Current Affairs: Still left with around last 4 months of CA, plus RBI in news and PIB

Phase 2: I’m doing an MBA in Healthcare and Hospital Administration from IGNOU, so I already have management notes. I also know some basics of economics and finance

I’ve also been doing The Hindu analysis daily, so I feel relatively confident about descriptive writing

Now my main doubt is — should I seriously appear for RBI Grade B 2026 considering the time left?

It honestly feels like very little time is left and I’m confused whether it’s still realistically possible.

Also, can anyone suggest some good mock test platforms for RBI Grade B that are budget-friendly / low cost?

Would really appreciate honest suggestions.
