INFOSYS Placement Papers
INFOSYS PAPER ON 22nd FEBRUARY 2008
Hello frndz Its me TANUMOY frm BENGAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY wishing u all
d best for ur upcoming INFOSYS placement......well before i went for it i
thot it was very hard and i hvno chance.....but now dat i have cleared it
then i feel dat its not dat too hard.....just u need determination and
confidence and MOST IMPORTANTLY ENGLISH.......
There were 2 parts of aptitude test:
1)LOGICAL
2)VERBAL
LOGICAL (30questions 40mins....60% cutoff)
(a) A cube sum of painting its sides and thene dividing into 1000 small
cubes...and then 5 questions on it....
(b) Figure matrix....u have to choose d odd one out or d next figure in
line.....5 questions
(c) 5 Data Sufficiency problem...easy ones
(d) 5 Questions on Data Interpretation....a table was given on rice and
wheat production....easy but lengthy....will suggest to do this at last.
(e) 5 Questions on Puzzle test...it was d simplest of d lot.....there were 5
houses A,B,C,D,E,F 3 on each side of the road with colours
red,blue,green,white,etc......smallest house in green in colour....B which
is red is opposite to C...(remaining i forgot)....
(f) 5 Questions on Syllogism.....easy
just go thru RS Aggarwal.....and its enuff for d LOGICAL part......i ll
suggest u to go for d maximum marks here because its d easiest part than
verbal.....while selecting they may go for d aptitude marks too....
VERBAL(40questions 35mins....50% cutoff)
(a) 2 Simple comprehensions....4 Questions each...answers all given in d
passage directly just needed to find them.....Do these at last....
(b) 8 Questions on Choosing d appropriate sentence frm four options....these
are a bit tricky....they all seem to b correct.....practise sentence
construction.....
(c) 8 Questions on sentence correction in which u have to find correct
replacement for underlined part in d sentence
(d) 8 Questions on Fill in d blanks with suitable grammatical
words.....again all d 4 options ll seem correct.....
(e) 8 Questions on Theme Detection......for each question a
situation/passage is given with four options.....u have to choose d
appropriate one......
So friends this is d verbal part.....it may look easy but its a lot more
tricky than being hard.....and this is where most of d students gets
elliminated...strange isnt it???? But "Truth is sometimes stranger than
fiction"....so i suggest go back to ur old cupboard and take out ur WREN n
MARTIN again n ofcourse go thru it....ALL D BEST
OUT OF 180(approx) 22 GOT SELECTED 4 HR.........so u can very well imagine d
competition my frnds.....
HR:

3) Ask me bout my school.....
4) Diff between ICSE and CISCE...

9) Ur weakness...do u have any? do u think its a weakness...y???

gentlemen bout 55-70.....so u shud have a smile all d tym....and show proper
respect....giv ur answers confidently....and ofcourse ur answers shud be
diplomatic but at d same tym dont go for over d edge stories......always
