Placement Papers - HAL

Hi Friends

I have given HAL written test for DESIGN TRAINEE in ELECTRICAL. Though I cleared the written, I couidn\'t make it in interview. I feel, better performance in written will see u through final selection.. I would like to tell u how the paper was....

Total no.of questions 160 (25+135)
25-general (eng, gk, apt)
135-tech

Though there are no sections, i\'m giving u the round figures....      
ENG-of Normal level (stress on grammer-something like correction of sentences)
GK-of various areas (don\'t prepare, no problm if u don\'t know)
APTITUDE-Basics, examples in R.s.agarwal will suffice (work-time, proportion, profit-loss...)

TECHNICAL-
note: calculations are bit clumsy (prepere mentally for that)
Major portion
- Networks(kcl, kvl and other basics)
- Machines (mainly DC)
- Measurements (if u r not familiar, jus remember main points about different instruments preferably from some book meant for psu)
Minor portion
- Power system
- control system (root locus)
- others (less)

Please be CAREFUL that pattern can change and ALSO the weightage of different subjects

NO PAIN-NO GAIN
GIVE YOUR SINCERE EFFORTS - ALL THE VERY BEST
