WIPRO PAPER ON 12th JULY 2008
Hi guys....this was my second company & luckily bcoz of gods(sri krishna's) grace i got placed in wipro on 12th july 2008 in bangalore.... i actually had not thought of getting into wipro.. i thought ill just try & it would b a pratice seesion for me....so had just taken it very lightly....but somehow luckily could clear aptitude test... in selection process there wil b 3 rounds..
1>aptitude test which consists of 3 sections..all the sections r compulsory...so give equal importance to all sectionsbecause there will b sectional cut off...
those three sections r
QUANTITATIVE APTITUDE
VERBAL SECTION
TECHNICAL SECTION
2>technical interview
3>HR interview
give equal importance to al sections in aptitude test ...i m stressing this point more.... the questions in verbal were quite difficult....so i had to guess the words ..but if u hv r preparing for competitive exams like gre,cat... then it will b an added feature to u & u can make it very fast... there wil b passages, analogy,fill in the blanks with corrcet words,identify the wrong sentences & so on.... u must b fast enough... read the passage at the last if u hv time....
then the quantitative aptitude section was quite easy & nice... i liked it.... there were questions on mixtures,series,profit& loss, puzzels which r easy, blodd relationship,trains,clock,probability...... u hv to do calculations fast.... thats all... do al questiona whichever u feel easy first & then try for difficult ones...
technical was also quiite straight forward like output from c program,unix commands & basics of C , atleast 1 vauge question... but u need not bother abt it ,...if u r a cs or is student then u can easily crack it.....
