GENERAL:
venue: SRMCEM,lucknow
date:23/06 sat
we were supposed to
report at 8:30 n were
expecting the written to
commence from 10 or so.
No hall-tickets were
isuued so we had to
collect the reference
no. There was a total
chaos n the arrangement
made by college was not
upto the mark.The
refernce allotment got
over by 10:30 n we were
told to evacuate the
building(mismanagement
again).We finally
entered our respective
classes around 11:30 n
the writen exam finally
began at 1pm.
The paper had 2
sections,one after the
other
SECTION 1: GENERAL
APTITUDE
there were 5 ques with 5
subparts each
1) a very simple ques on
BLOOD RELATIONS
2)some conditions like
experience,qualifications,domicile)
for various
posts(director,manager
etc) followed by 5
persons with diff.
satisfying criteria,we
simply had to
answer their deserving
posts (the ques had
complex looks bt was
pretty simple)
3)a quest on CODING
DECODING
3 words along with some
coding were given we had
to identify the
corresponding coded
alphabet for some
characters (was easy but
i got stuck in one of
the subparts,ws ambigous)
4) 5 quest with 4
english statements each
were given n we had to
classify each as
a) assertion

c) counter logic
d) irrelavant
it was for the first
time i encountered such
quest so took me time to
tackle it

well designed and must
had proved desicive for
the next phase,in short

and the results were
announced at 5:45pm with
severe mic problems n
total chaos all around,i

mic was figured,i
presume)
The tech-hr ws to
