Hello Friends !

I\'m extremely happy to inform u all that I\'ve gt thru TCS. I thank Friends Madam n other members 4 their encouragement. Let me share my exp with TCS right frm d test.


Aptitude Test: There\'ll be 3 parts - Verbal, Quans, Critical.

VERBAL - 32 ques.
Synonyms n Antonyms - 10 each
Readin Comprehension - 6 ques
Fill up d blanks - 6.
The verbal part is d toughest 1. I prepared around 400 words. But nt even a single word came in d ques paper. So be strong in Verbal.

QUANS - 33 ques.
This is d very easy section. Juz be thorough with previous set ques papers n that\'s enough.

CRITICAL - 12 ques.
I think 4 this section u can go through GRE edition 12, 13, 14 n R.S. Agarwal. that\'s enough.

On clearin this round, u\'ll be called 4 interview.
