I had appeared in NTPC MT-2010 in Chennai on 2nd May ’10 under Electrical Engineering (B.Tech.) Category and surprisingly NTPC has changed their question format this time.
Total number of Q were 85 (50 Technical, 35 Non-Technical) but time was 120 mins. So u can assume that the Q Paper was a bit tough.
Among Non-technical the different sections were based on
GK(4 Q only)
DI (4-5 Q from Graph)
Apti (2 Q on number series, 2 Q on Permutation Combination, 1 Q on time & work)
Reasoning (1 Q on relation, 3 Q from series of pictures)
English Paragraph and Q from there, Sentence assembling (total 5-6 Q)
Though it was Electrical Category but 40%-45% of technical questions came from Electronics related.
SO, IT’S MY ADVICE TO YOU THAT DON’T ASSUME THAT THE RECRUITER IS NTPC SO IT IS MANDATORY TO GIVE STRESS ONLY ON
TRANSFORMER-ALTERNATOR-POWER SYSTEM-DC MACHINES.
YOU MUST GIVE MORE STRESS ON CONTROL SYSTEM BASICS, MEASUREMENT & ELECTRONICS BASICS.
