10 suspects are rounded by the police and questioned about a bank robbery. Only one of them is guilty.

The suspects are made to stand in a line and each person declares that the person next to him on his right is guilty. The right most person is not questioned. Which of the following possibilities are true? A. All suspects are lying or the leftmost suspect is innocent. B. All suspects are lying and the leftmost suspect is innocent. Neither A nor B Both A and B B only A only Planet fourfi resides in 4-dimensional space and thus the currency used by its residents are 3dimensional objects. The rupee notes are cubical in shape while their coins are spherical. However the coin minting machinery lays out some stipulations on the size of the coins. The diameter of the coins should be at least 64mm and not exceed 512mm. Given a coin, the diameter of the next larger coin is at least 50% greater. The diameter of the coin must always be an integer.

You are asked to design a set of coins of different diameters with these requirements and your goal is to design as many coins as possible. How many coins can you design?

Hare in the other. The hare starts after the tortoise has covered 1/5 of its distance and that too leisurely3. A hare and a tortoise have a race along a circle of 100 yards diameter. The tortoise goes in one direction and the. The hare and tortoise meet when the hare has covered only 1/8 of the distance. By what factor should the hare increase its speed so as to tie the race? a) 37.80 b)8 c) 40 d) 5 Ans: 37.80 We preceed as follows: After tortoise covers 1/5th distance hare starts the race When hare covers 1/8th of distance tortoise meets hare So distance covered by tortoise = 1-(1/5 + 1/8)

= 27/40 Time taken by both is same time = dist/speed So (dist/ speed) of tortoise = (dist / speed) of hare let speed of tortoise be t and of hare be h 27/40t = 1/8h h = (40/(8*27) )* t = 5/27 * t Now for the next part hare has to cover 7/8 th distance when tortoise covers 1/8 th distance so we get 1/8t = 7/8h h = 7t so the factor by which h's speed increases = 7t/ (5/27 * t) which is 37.8 So answer is 37.8 Q5.

Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N=9+X+Y-Z Where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be a) 0 b) 27 c) 18 d) 20 The Q's concept is same but the equation of N's is changing. Q7. Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game. 20 coins are stacked one above the other. One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins. The goal is to bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in the stack. Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 = i = 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2-move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move. If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the gold coinis the third coin from the top. Then a) In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 1-move.

b) In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 0-move. c) In order to win, Alice's first move can be a 0-move or a 1-move. d) Alice has no winning strategy. Ans: d Q8.

In which direction is he in? Technical Round(TR): 28th Sept My friends faced simple C programs and briefly about project. Now It's my turn, he asked me about my self and about my main project nearly 35 minutes and 2 simple Technical questions. You should prepare C programs like reverse of a number, palindrome, fibonacci, even number series, odd number series etc. and also data structure concepts.

MR round: Next day This round is horrible for me, I faced some Technical questions here also. He asked some basic concepts, i answered those questions correctly and confidently but he argued with me that your answers are wrong then i told my answers are correct sir, then he gave a horrible statement i.e "You think that I am not able to write even a simple C program also" it was strange to me but i managed the situation. After some time he said that "Ok Mr. Gautam even you are not pefect in basic cinsepts how can i select you? So you can go now try again after 6 months". He repeated this for 4 times, each time i smiled and justifying my answer, he again repeated the same for 5th time too strange for me, at that time i get up from the chair and again with a smile i asked that "Shell I wait at out side sir?" then with a smile he said that "Ok Gautam you are promoted to H.R round". I was very happy after clearing the M.R round. I proceeded to H.R round with a lot of confidence. H.R Round: Here also i faced some Technical questions and H.R asked me that, 1) Tell me about your self? 2) Tell me any 2 incidents you want to share with me? 3) Why your % decreased in B.Tech? (As i had 77% in diploma, 73% in X , 68 in my B.Tech) 4) Your strengths? (very frequnet qiestion but be prepared) 5) Your family? 6) How you ranked your self compared with your friends?

Rule 1: Prepare yourself on the following topics; Just brush up your basics: ages, percentages, ratio and proportion, numbers, time and distance, sequence, time and work, probability, permutation and combination & blood relation. {Here probability and per/com is optional because it carries only 3-4 questions on it.} Rule 2: Go through the previous papers in fresherworld of this test. I have also giving you some relevant questions which appeared in our test. Rule 3: Try to solve the questions by yourself; don't memorize them because data will be changed. Rule 4: Try to just interchange the data of the questions and solve them faster and faster. The Time Management is a important skill often tested in aptitude test. So by practicing the questions given below try to develop speed and accuracy. Rule 5: Speed reading is a important part of this test as all the questions do have some irrelevant data. So in these 3 days of preparation, try to find the relevant data from the question and read very fast. Tricks for aptitude test: 1) You will be asked to answer 35 questions in 60 minutes. At the beginning, dont even think to answer all questions. 2) Just go through all the 35 questions and solve the easy ones. Every paper consists of minimum 15-17 easy questions and rest of them moderately difficult. 3) Try to answer the easy ones 15-16 questions out of 35 within 45 mins and also write the individual number of moderately easy ones or mark them [that u think can do within 3-4 mins ] in the scratch paper. 4) Last 12-15 mins of the exam, try to solve the marked ones, atleast of 5 them. 5) The difference between you and others will lay answering marked ones, so try to solve the easy 15-16 as fast as you can. [Caution: you try to believe that u can acquire 100% accuracy in easy questions; so complete the easy questions of entire range question number 1 to 35 within 40-45 mins.] 5) So after the time is completed, you will find urself answering 22-24 questions without any rigorous preparation. Those who r a bit slower in calculations can also clear this test by my plan. And cut off, as I already mentioned, lies below 20 around 18-19. 6) Last but not the least, don't try to mark the questions you are not absolutely sure; as the paper consists of negative marking, you will not be able to meet the cutoff. Some examples of touchstone test: 1. Which is the smallest no divides 2880 and gives a perfect square? a.1 b.2 c.5 d.6 Ans: c 2. Two bowls are taken, one contains water and another contains tea. Equal amount . one spoon of water from 1st is added to second bowl and mixed well, and a spoon of mixture is taken from second bowl and added to the 1st bowl.

100 90w (+10w= spoon vol) 90w+ (10*10/11)tea+ 10/11 w 100tea+10water

100 100t- (10*10/11) t + 10w- 10/11w

(1st bowls water vol is equal to 2nd bowls tea volume) 3. Form 8 digit numbers from by using 1, 2,3,4,5 with repetition is allowed and must be divisible by4? a.31250 b.97656 c.78125 d.97657 Ans: c 4. Rearrange and categorize the word RAPETEKA? Ans: Bird 5. One problem on (785^3-235^3)/(785^2+785*235+235^2) Ans: You are free to carry a calculator with you but you should not use it to solve this kind of problem. Because it is simple: A3-b3 / a2+ab+b2 Ans is : a-b here 785-235= 550 thats it. 6. In school there are some bicycles and 4 wheeler wagons. One Tuesday there are 190 wheels in the campus. How many bicycles are there? Ans: 15 Thought process : b*2+w*4=190 i.e. , b+2w=95 now see u ca not solve 2 unknowns fron 1 eqation, so just plot options here to get the right answer and verify if you are getting integers as vales of B and W. 7. There are two persons paul and Jay .Paul lies on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday and the remaining days he speaks truth.Jay lies on Thursday,Friday,Saturday and the remaining Days he speaks truth. once they meet each other, in their conversation Paul says that yesterday is the day one among those I lie. Jay also says that yesterday I also lie. what is that day? a) Sunday. b) Tuesday. c) Thursday. d) Wednesday [Thought process: Now this day cannot be Sunday because in Monday paul speaks truth and Sunday everyone tells truth. So it must be weekdays. Again, Tuesday can not possible because Monday and Tuesday paul speaks truth. In case of thrus day, paul speaks lie and Wednesday he speaks true. And joy speaks truth in thrusday and he speak lies in Wednesday. So, thrusday is the answer. 8. A father has 7 pennys with him and 1 water melon is for 1p, 2chickoos for 1p, 3 grapes foe 1p.

Questions on C mainly from arrays and pointers and structures and linked lists practice one program from each just to have confident that you know all haha. Simple programs to be known fibb, factorial prime, even and odd arrays to be constriucted taking numbers as inuput, pascal traingle, pyramid all this are not asked only for me but i am writing all the question asked for CSE people for ECE what is data structure give exmple this questions for EEE they are rejecting most of them. It was combined round for me that is manegral and technical which for 30-35mins they said to wait for 10 mins besides them they said you are through to HR. I was shocked gods grace i was forwaded to HT (highly risky).

Me: Sir, i was reading the whole night yesterday for technical round HR: So you read for technical rounds (actually i should say i was prepring not reading this the mistake he caught) Me: It's not like that sir i need to brush up all the technical topics i have in my academics HR: So if you read like this the whole night than your nerves will get disturbed you can't work in companys Me: Yes sir, but frankly speaking last time i have attended the interview in Accenture i failed to clear the technical round. So this time i don't want to miss this oppurtunity that's why sir i prepared so much and i'm successfull in doing so because if you clear TR only they will send to HR HR: Thats good Anil so wat are your weakness Me: I will never mind the time if i like to work on something i like HR: Whats your stengths Me: Hardworker sir which is already prooved( seeing my eyes haha) HR: Haha laughingly said nice Me: Sir would you like to see my achievements(diverting) HR: No i trust you, you just say me why you got those Me: Said the history of those topics and said i am interested in knowing the new tehcnologys sir

HR: Ahaa so can you tell me one which is not presently launched in a market but yet to be launched Me : Said every thing the new tehcnology names cryonics ( getting back the dead person) HR: Vow thats really great where you got this Me: From net HR: Do you cry Anil Me: No sir HR: Last time when you cried Me: Said some situation about my mother HR: Ok asked about my family how many members are there in your family Me : 3 myslef my father and mother HR: Will you relocate? Me: Yes sir HR: But you are the only one to your parents name you may be prefering Hyderabad. Me: Yes sir, if the preference is given to me i prefer hyderabad but if the TCS requires me in other location i am ready to relocate my cousin will take care of them. HR: Ok that's fine Anil just read english news papers so that you can develop your career more and more ok by TCS all the best see you Me: Thank you sir shaking the hands came out happily.

1. Never Guess an answer . Attend only the questions you are reasonably certain of answering correctly . (I attended exactly 30 questions , Never guessed any question randomly. 2. If you dont get the answer in the first try or you get stuck up quickly skip the question . Come back to it later if you have time. ( I attended the first question skipped 8 questions before answering the next question). 3. Read the question fully once and find out what they are asking . Most of the time they give a lot of irrelevant data to confuse you. For example they may ask a problem on ages but may also give you data on blood relations (i have 2 brother and 2 sisters. You have to correctly deduce the fact that you only need information related to Age and the rest is irrelevant data . 4. Try not to panic at the sight of those long questions. Most problems are very simple which require you to do some logical thinking with a clear mind. 5. There will be certain questions which will be very simple but will have small twists . 6. Most questions asked have a fixed pattern. A friend of mine attended the interview on 21st (she too got selected). Most of the questions i got were similar to the ones she got with slight changes introduced (learn the logic dont mug up the answer) . Some of the questions which I remembered are as given below. 1) If an old women's age is the same as her three grand daughters i, mean the number of days old child=the no of weeks old child=no of months old child.

Don't remember the answer. 2) There was a piece of cloth which is 135 miles long and 35ft wide and some nonsense again then he wants to divide the cloth into pieces with one mile each if he took 7 secs for cutting piece. What is the time taken for cutting the whole of the cloth into pieces? 135-1=134 x 7=938 secs. 3) A woman had somany gloves and hats 22 red,34 blue, 45 white there was power cut and she took a glove and how many gloves shud she take so that she gets a pair of glove fr each color? Don't know the answer. 4) Problem on ((a3-b3)/(a2-ab-b2))=(a- don waste tym directly calculate it! 5) The bear problem..i put it as black. 6) Parateeka(Bird) 7) If a person climbed a hill which was 200 mtrs high. The average speed while climbing was 23 mph and while coming down was 30 mph. Then what is the average speed of his journey? Use the formula (2xy)/(x+y) 8) If the are 2 containers of 1 ltr each. I had Pepsi and another water. If one spoon from Pepsi was taken and added in water and then frm the mixed container of water one spoon was taken and added in Pepsi.. So pepsi had more quantity of Pepsi than what water had in 2nd container.

(means 10 litre in 1 hr, 20 litr i 2nd nd so). If at the 4th hour the tank is 1/4 full when will it be full? Ans: x/4=80 That means capacity of tank is 320 litres. From the series we can see that in 5th hr it's 160 nd then in 6th hr it's 320 so answer is 6 12) 2 very simple questions on ages like if 3 years back i was 2 times of my friends age and so and so. If you know the basic concept you will be able to solve that. 13) There are only bicycles and 4-wheelers in the parking. If the total number of wheels are 240. What can be the possible number of cycles? Ans: 2x+ 4y= 240 See options ie the value of x from the options. Then check the value of y from eqn for each option. The value of x for which y is a integer would be the answer. 14) The cost of making robot is divided into cost of material, Cost of repairing nd cost of painting in the ratio of 5: 2: 3 the cost usd for material is 200. Find the total cost of making the robot? Ans: 5x/10=200 So x=400 Ans. 15) If jack lies on Mon, Tue Wed and jill lies on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. If both together tell they lied yesterday. So c the given options and then c cos in the given dates one will be saying the truth and one will be lying. I got Thursday as option because jack is saying the truth he lied yest but jill is lying again as he lies on that day. 16) Scientist starts from his base camp from North (my friend got North Pole) chases after a Bear etc. Answer lies in the first sentence that says that Bear's Color changes according to the weather. As far as i know there are 2 kinds of bears. The Normal ones which are Black and the Polar Bears which are white. Polar Bears are present only in the North and South poles (Arctic and Antarctica). I chose white i am not sure if that was correct (if it was North Pole white is the correct answer) 17) Seamstress makes a cut on a piece of cloth in 3 secs. If she wants to cut the cloth into 11 pieces. How much time would it take. (My friend got the same question with different values) Answer: To cut a piece of cloth into 11 pieces she has to make 10 cuts. so 10*3 = 30secs is the answer. 18) A lady is trying to pick gloves and hats from her wardrobe in the dark. She has 22 white and 33 green ones. She wants to pick a pair of gloves of white and green. How many tries before she gets it right? Answer: They mentioned 'hat' to confuse you.

Best of luck for those attending the off-campus. 29) I don't remember exactly the question, one logical problem stating the colour of beer? Ans: White. 30) There was a scientist who after doing research, found that color of skin of animals vary with change in distance. One day he started to chase a beer. He walked 1 mile towards north, then turned and walked 1 mile towards east and then caught the beer and radioribboned the beer. Then he left the beer at that spot and returned to his base-station taking a turn towards south (walked 1 mile towards south). Then what was the color of beer at that spot? a)White b)Brown c)Black Ans. Black d)Grey 31) Also a one question like color of bear? (obviously its black)

32) The problem of BEAR is about identifying its color with regard to its Region whether it is from North or South or East or West. Because, The Bear's color will vary in different location and so they have mentioned this as distance. As far I know, North - White Bear ( Polar Bear ) East-Black Bear South-Black Bear (Sometimes Grey too ) West-Brown Bear 33) In the class of 40 students, 30 speak Hindi and 20 speak English.

Solution: Here the question appear as an easy one, but carried a lot of unwanted sentences and unwanted datas (i dint mention above) in exam which may confuse you on solving technique. 5) Let x be current average age of first 6 persons in queue and current age of seventh person be y. Then 6x will become the sum of those 6 persons age. Now, let compute the sum of those 6 persons after two years, 6x+12 (as each and individual increase their age by 2). hence its average become (6x+12)/6 = 43 (give in question itself). So now we can compute x from above equation. (x = 41, 6x = 246). Let now we compute y, ((6x+y)/7) = 45, as we have value of x, compute y. Ans: 69 6) Horse started to chase dog as it relieved stable two hrs ago.

Technical Interview: I got my interview schedule after four days in TCS Office Noida but lots of frends got dere schedule on the day of paper. So be prepared mentally for interview n yeah be well dressed it makes really a positive impact. The interviewer was a beautiful lady the near about 28 years old.She welcomed me when i entered in the room.My interview continued till 20mins.Imp Instruction if u r from Non cs background den u can say u don't have much idea about s/w field then they asked u about ur subjects but u have to impress him by knowledge of ur field n give them assurance that u will do really good at a time of ur training. * Tell me about ur self?(u have to tell about u n ur family background) * My strength n weakness.(Be prepared for this question). * About My final year project. (You have to tell whatever you done, its depend on. So whatever you speak be confident) * About summer training.(U have to specify about whatever u learn there they can ask u simple ques regarding training) * MY favourite subjects(I told DBMS, so she asked me about languages used in DBMS, Sql queries, and about normalization etc.) ( It's really simple beccause this is in your hand to tell a specific subject and they will ask you simple questions regarding your subject. It's not necessary to give answer of all questions if you don't know say confidently i don't know.) * She asked me About computer languages i said, i am comfortable in C and C++. So she asked me what is a different between C and C++, Oops concepts, Different between Static and final, write a program for palindrome. (Prepared for Some program Like (palindrome, Fibonacci, Recursion, Strings, Factorial etc.) * Generally they asked about your CV stuffs so make your CV according to your comfort zone. May be they can ask something different from your CV but in that case you can easily say i have no idea. In my case they asked about Unix commands. Frankly speaking interview was so good because you have need to show that you technically sounds better. So be prepared for the interview. After technical we called for MR(Managerial round) It was just a 7-8 min round. They can ask you technical or puzzles or about your hobbies anything. So don't worry for this round.

* The interviewer asked me about my hobbies, my family background. * He gave me a puzzle like (a candle burns in 60min. Then how can two candles can burn in 90min. Ans we can burn a candle first n in 60 min this will burn completely den we will burn second one from both of end so it would take 90 min to burn both of candles.) * Then he suddenly changed the question and said now you have 45 min to burn both of candles and i couldn't do but he gave me 4 min to solve and insisted me luckily i got the right answer and i replied. we would burn first candle from both of end and at same time we would burn second candle from starting point so in 30 min the first one will burn completely and second will burn half then we will burn second burning candle from another point also, So in this way both of candles will burn in 45min. * He asked me to write a simple C program to add two numbers and picked a questons like roll of void main(), getch(), and about some header files. Guys if you are worry about puzzles then frankly speaking look for some basic puzzles of Shakuntla Devi. My be they can ask you puzzle. HR Round: This round was just of 2-3 minutes. * They asked me how was my Technical round. * Have i been placed in anywhere else(I replied yeah in infosys also, i don't know what impact of this would be on her) * Then she asked if i would been placed in infosys then why would i join TCS(i replied because of work culture and ethics in TCS) * At last she said me "Ok rahul we have done, you can go now".

I have done only 19 problems out of 35, but i am very much sure that all i made were 100% right. In last 5 min i did not solve any problem but still i holded my nerve and didnot make any guess, all my friends made 23-24 questions even one of my friend did 28 questions, at that time i was very much depressed, i thought i need to solve one more problem. But when the result was announced i have cleared the aptitude and some of my friends who solved more question than me unfortunately not cleared the aptitude just because of they made some guesses so my suggestion is that please don't make any guess. After that there is a form fill-up part, and next the my interview was held, truely speakng friends i could not sleep at that night and going to the interview hahahha.

1. In lengthy questions first 1 to 3 lines used to be unnecessary time waste information, and the problem correctly starts from 3 or 4 th line.So, read the question fastly with in few seconds & try to know from where the question starts. 2. Among 35 some questions between 8 to 10 are given direct question without unnecessary matter.So, friends when u feel a question is lengthy or u can't solve it just leave it go to others (maybe be other questions r direct). 3. I think it will be better to have a view of all bits by half an hour doing all known or easy bits because we can't say where easiest bit will be because I saw 1 easy bit in last 20 sec and I was unable to attempt it. 4. Take calculator with you to written exam ,they will allow it.It makes ur work easier. Coming to preparation for written test it is enough if go through examples and 1st exercises in R.S Aggarwal topics include ratio, average, age problems etc. Never try to guess and answer. I have attempted 21 out of 35 no guess work . I got a mail that i cleared written exam. Next Rounds: 1-9-10 Technical MR HR Some of the selected had one round after another.

After a long wait i again got called for the MR at around 10 pm. My MR round was a mix of Technical, MR, and HR questions. He asked a lot of questions ranging from software testing to my favourate topic( Data communication), then related to my project, about my hobbies. viz. What are different. types of testing? What is black box testing? What is a router? Difference between switch and router? Reading is your hobby...then which book are u reading nowadays? What this book is all about and whats your opinion? Which book u read last time, completely? What do u do to update yourself in technical advancements?

and a lot of more questions.... my interview stretched to around 25 mins. I answered all the questions confidently except a single question on flash card in a router...so i humbly said that i dnt have much idea abt internal parts of a router. He was looking impressed lets say him MR.

There are two water tanks A and B, A is much smaller than B. While water fills at the rate of one litre every hour in A, it gets filled up like 10, 20, 40, 80, 160... in tank B.( At the end of first hour, B has 10 litres , second hour it has 20, and so on). If tank B is 1/32 filled after 21 hours, what is the total duration required to fill it completely? Options 1) 2) 3) 4) 26 25 5 27
Additional Notes: plzz don't provide direct step answers

Report Question Solutions vimbloid 25-Nov-10 05:21:07 PM Given that B fills up at the rate 10,20,40 etc... This is a geometric progression where a = 10 r = 2 so after 21 hrs lts in B = a*r21 = 10 * 221 This is equal to 1/32 volume of B SO TOTAL VOLUME OF B = 32 * 10 * 2^21 which is =10 * 2^26
So hrs required to fill up B is 26
