Wat I felt with this test was it was better
to go thro all the 100 ques, cos some easy
ones were there at the last. If U think U
can certainly solve a problem but its time
consuming just leave it and proceed to the
next one. Some of the ques were very easy,
even U no need to use
pen and paper.
Verbal
Find the Wrongly Spelt word
Synonym
Antonym
Fill in the blanks
Aptitude (purely mathematical)
- Better have a look at the previous 1998 qn
paper, from that we got many questions.
- strong analytical geometric and
mensurational skills needed.

regarding 2 pseudocodes given
Time Constraint was the big thing, u cannot
complete the paper if u solve all the qns,
its not needed also, they're just seeing the
relative mark, in our

coding
do this or find the path to your home.
