infosys pattern & interview – 10 JUL 2007

Infy had come to our college on 10th of July and selected as many as 100 ppl, from Comps, IT Electronics etc.. together.. As u know once u clear the apti d interview is a cake-walk.

There were two sections:
1. Quantitative
2. English

If u r keen to get into Infy, do RS Aggarwal (both books) thoroughly, with puzzles from Shakuntala devi also. Quantative consisted of questions such as
1. Direction problems – 5 questions on this like XYZ walks 50 kms north, then turns right n wals west etc… so where is he now…
2. Insert the missing figure in series – 5 questions on this Refer RS for this
3. Data Sufficiency type questions – 5 each
4. Data Interpretation – (We had bar-graph) – 5 each, This 1 was quite tough since v lacked time..
5. Puzzle Type questions.. – 5 each
6. last but not the least SYLLOGISMS!! – 5 each
This is really important.
