So, here I am sharing my experience taking the IBM test.
Carry all your documents as well as your Hall Ticket without which you won\'t be allowed to sit.
Online Test of Aptitude:
So there were 36 questions in total - 18 Series based and 18 Quantitative Aptitude
Each question had a time limit of 2:15 minutes.
You can\'t go back to the previous question. You have the option to not attempt the question and move to the next but you can\'t go back to the previous question.
They\'ll provide you with a username and password and will give a IBM coupon no.( at the time of registration).
Series questions: (Find the next number).
1. 3,7,10,8,4,12,0,5,5,3,2
2. 4,2,-4,-8,32,26,-156
3. 5,10,9,3,6,5,4,8,7,7
4. 6,18,21,8,11,33,2,6,9,5,8,24,7,21
5. 100,98,95,90,83
6. 0,1,2,0,5,2,2,2,2,4,3,2
7. (2/3),(5/3),(19/6),(31/6),(23/3),(32/3),(85/6)
8. 13,24,36,23,34,56,33,44,96,43,54
9. 5,16,22,68,28,87,34,106,11
10. 7726,635,64,9
11. 4,11,66,74,370,379,1516
12. 2,1,2,3,8,0,1,9,1,2
13. 4,2,36,4,5,1,36,16,6,3,81
14. 5,10,25,15,30,75,150,80,155,400
15. 2,3,10,15,26
16. -3,-4,-9,-28
17. 3,8,12,48,29
18. (1/2),(1/2),(1/4),(1/6),(1/8),(1/18),(1/16)
As you can see some questions are fairly simple but some are difficult.
Tip: Practice as many questions on series as you can so that you attempt the maximum. Also, one advice - do attempt all the questions. If you don\'t know the answer to a question utilize those 2:15 minutes and mark any answer which you think can be the answer.
Practice all the IBM series questions which are there on the net. They will be of use to you.
Quantitative Section:
There were questions on unitary method, some profit and loss question. Basically general. Similar to those given on the net.
You might get confused as how the question is so simple. But that is the trick of IBM(what i think). So don\'t get confused and give it your best shot.
Next, if you get selected in this round you have the English Online Test (Kenexea).
All the questions are from pronouns,punctuations, Business email writing/letter writing formats and all these things. Check questions of IBM English test on the net.
Next, if you get selected there is a Tech/HR round.
All the best!
