SAMPLE PAPER
Aptitude
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++) {
<body of the loop } -- how many times
will the loop
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.

There'd be a GD session after the test
results are out. The test results in SRM
are expected by tomm morning. GD topics
they heard of were:
1. BEAUTY PAEGENT -- is it essential ??
2. BRAIN DRAIN -- be careful with this

The big economic difference between
nuclear and fossil fueled power stations
is that the nuclear reactors are more
expensive to build and decommission, but
cheaper to run. So disputes over
