The test is of on-line type and it consists of two sections, I'll
list them in detail later. Please note down ur serial no., ur batch & time of test from the
xl chart sent by the placement officer. You'll have to log on to ur screen & enter some
preliminary details. Then u can proceed to either of the following two sections first...
though both of them are mandatory. When in a section, you can answer questions in any order and
re-check the results (unlike GRE). An automatic clock will be running for 30 mts for each section.
When done, u can 'exit the test' and go to the next section. PLEASE DO NOT CLICK ON LOG OFF
BEFORE YOU FINISH THE ENTIRE TEST!
1. Aptitude (GRE pattern -- verbal + maths)
30 Questions in 30 mts -- you'll have to be really fast!
Verbal was manageable it seems and for maths, pl. refer RS Aggarwal.
Key areas in maths -- Permutation-Combination; Trigonometry
Get the questions from ur friends in the previous batches...these tend to repeat.

2. Technical Section: (C or C++)
30 Questions in 30 mts.
key areas in C --> POINTERS, Looping & general input-output
sample quesion: for (i=1; i=3; i++) {
get executed ? Ans: JUST ONCE (i.e. when i = 3)

C++ key areas --> OOPS concepts in and out
Constructors-destructors; dynamic binding; polymorphism; inheritance etc.

Suggestion: If u're strong enuf in pointers, u might consider C; else if u're confident b't ALL
the OOPS concepts, u'd want C++.

I took the test before three weeks,Here are few of the questions i remember. There are two
sections The aptitude section is very easy
1.aptitude(30 minutes,30 questions)
*verbal
1.analogies
2.word_____word
there would be five options,out of which one word would belong to the same categorie as
the remaining words.
*logical reasoning(like GRE,but easy)
*non-verbal
1.what would be the next figure in the sequence
*quantitative aptitude
*time and work(easy)
*allegation and mixture
a's concentration is 10%,b's 20%,c's 30%.the liquids are mixed in the ratio 1:2:3.
the resultant concentration of the mixture is 23%.find each's concentration.
(I am not sure about the numbers)
*time and distance in a 100m race 'a' is ahead of 'b' by 10feets.if the speed of b is
increased by 3m/s she is ahead of 'a' by 10feets in 120m race.find the speed of 'a'.
*age(easy)
*data interpretation
(questions were asked from the above models for me)

2.c or c++(it's your choice to choose one,30 minutes,30 questions)
it was bit tough
*pointers
*function pointer
*structure
struct emp
{
Int a;
char b;
};
struct mn
{
double c;
struct emp d;
} q;

Q.sizeof(q)
ans:11(check it)
*char a="kamal";
char p*="anand";
a)compilation error
b)runtime error
c)work properly
d)
*char a[]={10,20,20,30};
char *p;
int b;
p=&a;
b=*p++;
printf("%d",b);
*if there is a global variable defined in another file is it
necessary to define it again in the current program.
