The exam had three sets-X,Y,Z i got Z which was the toughest

section A was english,

there was paragraph making which i cud not do it was very tough, so i guessed the answers and hoped atleast few hits the target the RC had a passage from pg 99 of barons,i had practiced all the barrons RC aand it helped .

i wud recommend the same for all as if u hv practiced the RC it saves a lot of time and TCS keeps repeating the RC from Barrons.Infact instead of remembering all th ewords from barrons its better to remember all the RCs as u will get 6 marks without wasting ne time whereas others may hv to waste 15-20 mins on RC

aptitute was easy,just do ne previous yr question,they repeat the same questions again and again,infact just remember all the answers as i had done,i helps..............

And yes there were few wrong questions and u need not waste time on them

Critical reasoning was from 12th edition Barrons model test papers.......1>>toll brigde prob2>>red and brown marriage3>>>All A's is B's......

THE interview from a cool affair......1>First was tell me something abt urself:ans>blah blah

2> write the code for bubble sortans>wich i wrote

3>then he asked me wats function overloading,function overriding,function signature,virtual function....

4>difference b/w public,protected and private

5>diff b/w yagi-uda and normal anteena

6>B.W. range of FM

7>wat r cipher and encryption(my project was on nt security)
