Lower Division Clerk (LDC) is the most junior clerical post in this bank. This page holds 122 published questions from two papers held on 14 and 15 December 2021. The 15 December paper is complete at 100 questions; the 14 December paper is a partial transcription of 22.
The LDC paper is a general-knowledge screening test with a slight lean towards Islamic Studies, which is the largest subject here, followed by Pakistan Studies, Geography and Computer Science. Unusually for FIA papers, there is very little English: only four questions in the set. Instead the paper tests basic computing and MS Office, reflecting the clerical nature of the job. A block of Religious Studies questions, covering comparative religion rather than Islamic doctrine, also appears. The level is matric. Candidates who find the Inspector or Sub Inspector papers daunting will find this one a more comfortable place to start, and the complete 15 December paper makes a good first full mock.
