Placement Papers - Infosys

I have referred R.S Aggarwal and bit of Arun Sharma books - for verbal ability section, for some questions I think its Arun Sharma book is better. But give priority for R S Aggarwal (quantitative and verbal & Non Verbal reasoning).

1). Arithmetic Reasoning and Analytical Thinking (15 questions , 25 minutes)

Main section covered in this section Data interpretation (DI) (5 questions), Syllogism, Data sufficiency (5 questions).

(I don\'t remember how many questions came from Syllogism, but I think from one more section they asked questions).

This section will be pretty easy all you have to do is time management, for solving DI questions, you should be prepared with quants topics such as Ratio, Percentages, etc.

2). Mathematical Critical Thinking and Logical Reasoning (10 questions, 35 minutes).

This section they asks from Quants, but it will be easy, topics which I got are,

1st Question - 1 small circle is inscribed in a square which is inscribed in one more circle.

2nd Question - 1 question from stock and shares.

3rd Question - 1 question from Speed and Time.

Ex : Ashish and Rahul started walking from same point E. Ashish walked at the speed of 15 kmph to the east, and Rahul walked 25 kmph to south, at what time they meet 10 miles apart? 

4th Question - Easy question. A man counted his animals from the bottom, and found to be there are 260 legs of animals (Goat and Duck) but when he counted from top, he found to be there are only 80 heads, so how many goats are there in total.

5th Question - "1 crypt question" NIN + FIVE = WIVES, IF E=5 AND V=3, what is the value of V+I+E+N+S ?

5th Question - From puzzle.

A guy was taking order from 7 or 8 dishes. ( dahi vada, malapua, blah blah, etc) :P

He can order five dishes.

Some 2 or 3 rules to order will be there.

Questions "if he order this, what will be the order, like that. It will be easy and bit confusing.

3). Verbal ability test (40 questions, 35 minutes) .

Time is very crucial in this section. you won\'t get time. If you are not that into reading, keep it for last.

2 big ASS passages, 5 questions for each passages, total 10 questions from this.

(I didn\'t get time to read both passages, so in last 1 minutes. I simply clicked some answers)

7 | 9 questions from sentence correction, it might be tough.

5 questions from fill in the blanks .

Some more questions from pick right sentence with appropriate grammar.

That\'s all I remember.

And I cleared somehow. Next day was interview.

After waiting for long, they called me around 7 pm.

interviewer (I) and me (M)

I : How are you XYZ ?
M : I am good sir, how are you ? ;P
(He smiled and said he is fine)

I : He asked \'how was the test " ?
M : It was easy.
So he asked some question from arithmetic progression :P

I: He asked project.

I: Then questions from Pointers, C , C++, Data structures, Java etc.

Anyway my results are yet to declare.

Hope I will get placed.

Hope it helped.

All the best.
