INFOSYS PAPER ON 26th FEBRUARY 2008
Hello friends!! I am Ankit Dikshit of MIET,
The criteria for eligibly of the candidates was 60% through out ( at least 60% in 10th, 12th and Btech agg.). Now I m sharing u my experiences wid infy initialising it with my feeling when I was not selected in the company visited MIET on 10th, I guess.
Just Dont Forget:
1. Believing
2. Visiting Freshersworld, as I m really thankful to it for reencrypting my success story.
3. Spend proper time on resume making, collecting correct information about the selection procedure of the company, as sometimes u might of following old patterns of the company.
4. I always say It only depends on your single Good Day, Luck Matters Alott!!
Round#1: Written (two sections logical reasoning: ques: 30, time: 40 min
And verbal reasoning(english): ques; 40, time: 35 min.)
Books: RS Aggarwal Verbal Non Verbal, RS Agg. Apti for Data Interpretaion only, GMAT Barron 10th edition, for English section
Not much requirement of shakuntala devi for written, it may sometimes be asked in HR only.
Subjects: Logical Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning,
Topics:
Puzzles: In this paper of infy, I encountered with two puzzles in written
5 more questions from Another puzzle which was on relation, point to remember is they provide the information in question directly, but many frnz of mine got confused tht how it could b happen?. For example, A, B, C is engineer, doctor and teacher respectively. As wife is (bla, bla, bla),so look the word respectively, which was proven excellent for my selection.(practice chapter 6, puzzle test of RS Agg, v-nv reasoning )
5 questions on Syllogism, really a scoring and easy section dont ever think of not practising syllogism. Just go though nine rules of solving these questions from RSA verbal non verbal.
5 questions from data sufficiency, I donno from where to prepare it, but prepare this section also, if u can this was my worst attempt.
5 questions from series (picture series),practice It from chapter 1, part 2, of RSA verbal non verbal. It was my best attempt, my funda was just compare the step by step changes in the given figure and put
Believe me the sections of the reasoning part was easy, u have to be serious for infys written coz, written is the round, wher they requires the leat.
Now for verbal section u have to make
10 questions on fill in the blanks, sinlge question on vocab, 5 questions on theme detection (the level was gud, no use of reading the chapter given in RSA, just read Barron for this also).
After this written, I been to my frnz (nigam) place in vrandaban, where I came to know that my written is clear.
