Hi Friends

This is Ranjan Kulkarni (fin yr) from M'lore. I hd off-campus for 2007 btch on 22 November 2006 in BANGALORE. 18 colleges partcipated accounting nearly some 850 students. Usually the interview procedure will consist of following rounds:

I.APTITUDE

II.TECH INTERVIEW

III.HR INTERVIEW

.......APTITUDE.....
It consists of 3 sections:

* Verbal Eng(15 Q):-refer GRE barron's, high school grammar book (prepositions, passive-active, fill n the appro word, arrange the given set of stmts in meaningful manner, punct, choose the word with correct spellin). This sec is the easiest of all....see to it that u answer 10 perfectly.....

* Analytical(15 Q):-for this we gotta b thorough with RS agarwal (time n work, speed n dist, ages, profitn loss, discounts...etc..), logic reasonin, this sec ws vry tough for us..I could solve only 9 perfectly.....

* Technical(20 Q):-It ws very easy for us. It covered C, C++, Unix, Networks, Operating System, few h/w related que, conversion of hexa to deci.. I answered 18 perfectly.....

usually Wipro has a lower cut-off on each section. i.e., 9-10,9-10,12-14. If u r runnin out of time, make good guesses by reading thru d que once...
