Here is the pattern dear freinds
1.logical reasoning(30 ques) 40 MIN
2.English section(40 ques) 30 min
for logical reasoning a
prepration of 1 week with perspiration is more than enough......i recgnized it
realllyyyyyyy bt u hav to do it by heart.
logical section.........
he logical section consisted of the
following ques....
1.2 puzzle test of 10 marks..... .(just go thru RS AGARWAL its more than
enough.....)
2.5 series figure ques of 5 marks ( go thru RS AGARWAL...NON VERBAL SECTION
more than enough0
3.5 ques on data sufficiency (again prefer rs agarwal )

the lr part of the cat material)
5.data interpretation of 5 ques( Just go thru the rs agarwal aptitude
book......it is best as i preffered the same)
English section....... it is as
follows
1. 2 paragraphs based question very easy ( try to do it in last minutes as it
is very easy u hav to just go thru it once it is of total 10 marks )
2. Correction of underlined sentence very minor difference 5 ques
3. theme detection 5 ques
4. choose the correct sentce of 5 marks,,,, and rest i cant
recollect.............
for verbal section i must say that prepare the basic things like tense, preposition , seeeches voices etc...............u can also go for the cat study material.....or prefer wren n martin.........
Written test was ok and the results were aronds 4 o clok and i made it thru...
HR..
FOR HR I WUD SAY THAT DNT PREPARE FOR ANYTHING ELSE BUT PREPARE FOR URSELF I
MEAN KNOW UR SELF.......so that u can reply every thing confidently...one more
thing that u shud go for r puzzles thay they ask in hr ...as i ws asked 4
puzzles...............
ME: may i come in sir
HR: yes u may
Me : good afternoon sir
HR:hav ur seat
ME: thank u sir
HR : so ur hobbies are singing and dancing
ME : yes sir
HR: did u gt any professinal classes for it
Me:no sir these are my hobbies bt not to a professional level
HR :ok ok
HR: he asked puzzles like that of the candle one and based on stick and blah
blah...
Me : solved the one of them and cud approach others
HR:will ur parents mind if we send u too any place in india

ME:solved it..
HR:wt influence u to take cs
ME :blah blah
HR: wt is ur respnse if wipro visits tommorow

interview as i hav found.....the thing that u need is connfidence and a naive
smile.........that i maintained even in my odds in the hr...... wt they are
seeking is that ur learnable or nt and hw u cn tackle the emergencies and
passions....so guys jst be cool whther it is written or the hr.....jst face it s

best............never underestimate urself....jst b ur self ..infy hR are very
good and make ur comfortable alws.....so jst go thru ur prep and nothing
