Microsoft Candidate Experiences

MICROSOFT PATTERN - 10 APR 2005 - HYDERABAD
Hai ,

This is Kranthi and I attended Microsoft GTSC test this sunday . Pattern is as follows
 
There are 3 sections
 
1. Analitical    25 questions  ( 30 minutes)
2. Reasoning  25 questions  (25 minutes)
3. Verbal        20 questions  (20 minutes)
 
           
The analitical part consists of
 
1.In a class 25 play cricket 15 play fut ball and soo on
they may ask u how many play both or some questions based on that
 
(it is some what tough than wht we think
there may be 5 to 6 questions based on one problem)
 
2. problem on cubes division of them into some equal parts and placing them one by one and  and painting them with some color like that questions
 
(even here there are many quiestions based on this problem)
 
3. some simple questions which may not link to others
 
(some wht easy to attempt)
 
 
Logical part consists of
 
1. data suficiency problems
 
i.e he gives some thing to us and ask whether we can get answer by considering only first statement or only second statement or both or none.
 
2. comparing similarity
 
he gives you 3 figures (numbers ) we have to see whether they are similar or not
 
this is the easiest part of the exam
 
 
Verbal part consists of
 
1. similar meanings
2. antonyms
3. passages
(some what tough)
4.synonyms
 
 
this is the pattern or even questions which were givenin the Microsoft GTSC it does not contains any technical part here we have  similar questions in new dimention which are some what teasing than others.
 
 hope this information is enough for those who are willing to attempt this
