The Descriptive English Paper in IFSCA Grade A 2025 Phase 2 is not just a language test—it’s an evaluation of your analytical skills, structure of expression, regulatory awareness, and time discipline. Many candidates, despite being strong in objective sections, lose the race here due to lack of structured guidance and quality feedback.
This is where Bank Whizz makes all the difference.
In this post, we’ll walk you through how Bank Whizz’s focused, expert-driven, and result-oriented approach can help you master Essay Writing, Precis Writing, and Reading Comprehension—the three pillars of the 60-minute, 100-mark descriptive English paper.
🧾 Descriptive Paper Overview: Why It’s Crucial
| Section | Word Limit | Marks | Nature |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essay Writing | ~300 words | 30 | Opinion-based, analytical |
| Precis Writing | ~170 words | 35 | Summarization |
| Reading Comprehension | 5 questions | 35 | Descriptive responses |
| Total | — | 100 | Must attempt all in 60 mins |
The descriptive paper often determines final selection, especially because:
- It directly tests your understanding of finance, policy, and regulation
- It’s a low-attempt area for most candidates
- A well-attempted paper boosts your interview shortlist chances
📌 Common Challenges Faced by Aspirants
- Lack of clarity on expected format
- Poor vocabulary and structure
- Writing too much or too little
- Low awareness of current financial/regulatory issues
- No practice in writing under time pressure
- No expert evaluation to correct mistakes
Bank Whizz solves all of these—systematically.
