Out of 400 only 130 stuents cleared the test.

They announced this day itself they will call Electronics and circuit based branches.. next day on 28th Computer Sc, IT have to come..
So my interview was on the next day..they were concentrating only on Micro Processor..So i studied micro processors basics..

TECHNICAL ROUND:
Remember this is the main eleminating round..My interview was at nearly at 6pm. I was waiting since 9am. I entered into the interview panel.
Only one person was there in the panel.. He told to sit down..
I was fully confident that day, i dont know why?..but my confidence help me a lot to get the job..he asked my resume..
I wrote my tech.skills as C, Php, Java, etc.. that persons asked me all the basics about only C..i was very lucky..bcoz i am strong in C..
questions like..
a) deault Access specifier of struct & class in C++.
b) difference b/w struct & class,
c) NULL pointer.

I cleared the interview.. dont think that all the questions will be asked as simple as i had..thats why i already said i was lucky..other students was asked difficult ques..like Micro Processor, Digital Electrnics..etc..

Amoung 130 students 40 students cleared the Technical interview..
