We had a Syntel test. The test had 3 sections:
1. English (25 questions in 15 minutes).
2. Quantitative Ability (50 questions in 30 minutes).
3. Reasoning (25 questions in 30 minutes).

For English, practice the Test Papers of Barrons GRE Guide. The entire paper was copied word-by-word from there. Also few questions were a repeat from the old papers.

The toughest part was the Maths section. TIME IS A REAL CONSTRAINT. Practice to attempt questions real fast. The questions were of R S Agarwal pattern. Some of them were a repeat. I remember few questions:

1. If A can do a work in 12 days, B in 24 days and C in 6 days, then how many days will they take to finish the job together.

2. Travelling at 3/4 of his speed, a man is 20 minutes late. Calculate his original speed.

The reasoning part was easy. Most of the questions were on the alphabet series. Like if the alphabets of English are reversed then which would be the letter from the 7th and so on.

Try to attempt 50% questions from each section if you wich to get a cll for interview. Trying to attempt all the questions is foolishness.

Then they give Section 1- Verbal-15mins

Lastly,Section 3- Logical Reasoning.-45mins.

The questions are quite easy,if u go thru RSAgarwal u wud be able to answer the questions but the problem is u need to be really really fast in answering the question...Verbal was also quite tough u need to go thru GRE book I guess....Logical Reasoning was quite cool for most of the questions the choice 'a' was the answer so didn;t have to bother going thru the other choices.I wasn't able to complete the paper as I told u Speed is essential...

To be specific there were qns on

"Trains","Compound Interest"(4-5 qns in this),"Time and Work"(if A does in so many days,B does in so many days how long will A+B take kinds!),"Proportion"(if u mix so much sugar in -litres of water what is the percentage of sugar in the soln...!),

a,b are prime nos, a=b+2 is a an odd number(yes/no?)

I think the answer is Yes.

In Verbal give antonyms for waffle,dissonance,Chagrin....

Relations:- Sartorial:Tailor ; Feud : ----------;

and Some fill in the blanks.

They selected some 38 ppl for the Interview by 1.30pm .I got selected for the Interview.Interview was held the same day.

Interview was purely HR he asked questions like;

Brief me about what u have done after ur 12th

What do u consider as ur Strengths
