TCS PAPER ON 15th FEBRUARY AT KOLKATA
TCS APTITUDE PATTERN:-
It was an online test of duration 90 min and comprises of 3 subdivisions:-
1)Verbal:-
a) 10 antonyms,10 synonyms
b) Reading Comprehensions (3 passages)
…….to be solved in 20 minutes….
Remedy:-
Prepare them from Barron’s 12th Edition…I repeat….strictly the 12th Edition…there are 750 high frequency odd words….seems quite cumbersome,but there is no other alternative,but to mug up….try to memorize at least 100 words a day…..
2) Quantitative:-
a) 32 questions in 40 minutes
Remedy:-
This section comprises of 32 questions…to be solved in 40 min….This is considered to be the easiest of all,owing to the fact that same questions are repeated and that too without changing the data(sometimes…)….It is recommended that u all go through only the previous years question papers of TCS…and the sample papers of TCS from FreePlacementPapers.com and chetanasforum.com…..In addition to that…..if possible…..try to practice just the simple questions related to Venn Diagram,Bar Graph and Sets from R.S.Agarwal………
3) Critical Reasonings:-
a) 3 reasoning based questions…..each consisting of 4 questions….to be solved in 30 minutes…
Remedy:-
Prepare this section strictly from only the Model Test Paper of Barron’s 12th Edition…..u may leave the reasonings containing less than 4 questions….believe me….they dont even change the sequence of the questions….If u have dearth of time and can’t understand them….better mug them up…..
