basis of the information provided in the passage. It all started at the beginning of fifth grade. At first, Carmen wasn¶t really sure what was happening. In class, she had to squint to see the blackboard clearly. She had to do the same thing when she read street signs, or when she watched a movie. As the fuzziness got worse, she became more and more worried. It was important for her to see the notes and homework assignments the teacher put on the board. It wasn¶t long before Carmen found herself squinting all the time, but she didn¶t want anyone to know that she was having a problem seeing. In class, she asked for a desk that was closer to the blackboard. One day, her teacher said, "Carmen, are you all right? I¶ve noticed you squinting a lot. Are you having trouble seeing the board?" Carmen shook her head. "I¶m fine, Mrs. Cruz," she said, but she knew she couldn¶t pretend much longer. At home, she had to sit closer and closer to the television in order to see the picture. Her mother noticed her squinting as she watched her favorite shows, and she began to get suspicious. "Tomorrow I¶m calling the eye doctor to set up an appointment for you," she said firmly. Carmen protested, but her mother¶s mind was made up. Three days later, Carmen had new glasses and instructions from her doctor to wear them all the time. Carmen frowned in the car the whole way home. "All of the kids at school will think I¶m a nerd," she said. Her mother smiled and shook her head. "You look just as beautiful with those glasses on as you do without them," she said. But Carmen didn¶t believe her. The next day, Carmen kept the glasses in her pocket as she walked into the schoolyard. She avoided her friends and stood alone, feeling miserable. Suddenly, she heard her friend Theresa shout. Carmen ran over to the other girls. "What¶s wrong?" she asked. "My silver ring is gone!" Theresa cried. "My sister sent it to me from California. It¶s very special and I can¶t lose it!" Carmen could tell that Theresa was very upset. They all looked for the ring in the grassy area of the playground. Carmen realized that she could search better if she could see better. She took the glasses out of her pocket and put them on. The objects and people around her came into sharp focus. She caught her breath. Everything looked so different! So clear! She looked down at the ground and a glimmer of silver caught her eye. It was the ring. "Here it is," she shouted. "I¶ve found it!" She handed it to Theresa, and Theresa slipped the ring back on her finger. "Thanks Carmen," she said. "I never thought we'd find it." She paused. "Hey, I didn¶t know you wore glasses. They look great!" Carmen had forgotten that she was wearing the new glasses. "Thanks," she replied shyly. As they walked back toward the school building, two more girls from her class complimented her glasses. Carmen smiled. "Maybe wearing glasses won¶t be so bad after all," she thought. 1. BEFORE Carmen got glasses she A. Thought having glasses wouldn¶t be so bad. B. Wasn¶t able to see the blackboard clearly. C. Found Theresa¶s missing ring. D. sat far away from the television Ans: B 2. Based on the end of the story, what do you think Carmen will do next?

Ans: D Directions for Questions 6-10: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage. Primitive man was probably more concerned with fire as a source of warmth and as a means of cooking food than as a source of light. Before he discovered less laborious ways of making fire, he had to preserve it, and whenever he went on a journey he carried a firebrand with him. His discovery that the firebrand, from which the torch may very well have developed, could be used for illumination was probably incidental to the primary purpose of preserving a flame. Lamps, too, probably developed by accident. Early man may have had his first conception of a lamp while watching a twig or fibre burning in the molten fat dropped from a roasting carcass.

Verbal Ability Test (40 Questions in 35 minutes) Directions for Questions 1-5: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage A snow leopard roars in the high mountains of Asia. A black rhinoceros gallops across the plains of Africa. A grizzly bear hunts for fish in a North American river. A mother blue whale and her calf glide through the deep waters of the ocean. All of these animals share the Earth with us. They fascinate us with their beauty, their grace, and their speed. We love observing their behavior, and learning more about their habits. But just loving them is not enough. All of these animals are endangered. Many of them have died, and without special care, they may someday disappear from the Earth. Why is it important to care for animals like these? One reason is to protect the balance of life on Earth. Another reason is the beauty of the animals themselves. Each species of animal is special. Once it is gone, it is gone forever. Africa was once filled with an abundance of wild animals. But that is changing fast. One of these animals, the black rhinoceros, lives on the plains of Africa. It has very poor eyesight and a very bad temper! Even though the black rhino is powerful, and can be dangerous, its strength can¶t always help it to escape hunters. Some people think that the rhino¶s horn has magical powers, and many hunters kill rhinos for their valuable horns. This has caused the black rhino to be placed on the endangered species list.

The elephant seems to represent all that is strong and wild in Africa. It once had no natural enemies, but is now endangered killed for its ivory tusks. The fastest land animal, the cheetah, also lives in Africa. It, too, is becoming extinct as people take over more and more of the land that is the cheetah's natural habitat. Imagine Africa without the powerful rhino, the gentle, intelligent elephant, or the lightning quick cheetah. Once they are gone, they are gone forever. Wherever people are careless about the land, there are endangered species. Grizzly bears like to wander great distances. Each bears needs up to 1,500 square miles of territory to call its homeland. Today, because forests have been cleared to make room for people, the grizzly¶s habitat is shrinking and the grizzly is disappearing. It joins other endangered North American animals, such as the red wolf and the American crocodile. In South America, destruction of the rain forest threatens many animals. Unusual mammals, such as the howler monkey and the three-toed sloth, are endangered. Beautiful birds like the great green macaw and the golden parakeet are also becoming extinct. They¶re losing their homes in the rain forest, and thousands die when they are caught and shipped off to be sold as exotic pets. The giant panda of Asia is a fascinating and unique animal. Yet there are only about 1,000 still living in the wild. The giant panda¶s diet consists mainly of the bamboo plant, so when the bamboo forests die, so does the panda. China is now making an effort to protect these special creatures from becoming extinct. Asia¶s big cats are also in trouble. The exotic snow leopard lives high in the mountains. Even there, it faces the loss of its natural habitat, and hunters who kill it for its fur. The tiger, the largest of all the big cats, is hunted merely for sport. Ocean-dwelling animals are in danger of extinction as well. The blue whale is the largest animal in the world. It weighs up to 390,000 pounds. Whale hunting and pollution are this species¶ greatest enemies. Unfortunately, it is people who cause many of the problems that animals face. We alter and pollute their habitats. We hunt them for skins, tusks, furs, and horns. We destroy animals that get in the way of farming or building. And we remove them from their natural habitats and take them home as pets. What can you do to help endangered animals? Learn as much as you can about them. The more you know, the more you can help. Make an effort to support zoos and wildlife groups. Many zoos breed endangered animals, helping to ensure that they will continue to live on. Contribute to groups, such as the National Wildlife Federation and the Sierra Club, that work hard to protect animals. You can also be a smart shopper and never buy a pet that has been raised in the wilderness. The world is made up of many living things, and each thing is dependent on the others to survive. If we allow even one species on Earth to become extinct, it has an impact on other living things and changes our world. When we mention any endangered wild animals, let¶s hope that we never again have to say, "Gone forever." 1. Which of the following is NOT an opinion? A. B. C. D. It is important for us to take care of endangered animals. The black rhinoceros is the most frightening animal in Africa. The fastest land animal, the cheetah, also lives in Africa. If we don¶t protect endangered animals now, we will regret it in the future.

Directions for Questions 1-5: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage. Much of the information we have today about chimpanzees comes from the groundbreaking, long-term research of the great conservationist, Jane Goodall. Jane Goodall was born in London, England, on April 3, 1934. On her second birthday, her father gave her a toy chimpanzee named Jubilee. Jubilee was named after a baby chimp in the London Zoo, and seemed to foretell the course Jane¶s life would take. To this day, Jubilee sits in a chair in Jane¶s London home. From an early age, Jane was fascinated by animals and animal stories. By the age of 10, she was talking about going to Africa to live among the animals there. At the time, in the early 1940s, this was a radical idea because women did not go to Africa by themselves. As a young woman, Jane finished school in London, attended secretarial school, and then worked for a documentary filmmaker for a while. When a school friend invited her to visit Kenya, she worked as a waitress until she had earned the fare to travel there by boat. She was 23 years old. Once in Kenya, she met Dr. Louis Leakey, a famous paleontologist and anthropologist. He was impressed with her thorough knowledge of Africa and its wildlife, and hired her to assist him and his wife on a fossil-hunting expedition to Olduvai Gorge. Dr. Leakey soon realized that Jane was the perfect person to complete a study he had been planning for some time. She expressed her interest in the idea of studying animals by living in the wild with them, rather than studying dead animals through paleontology. Dr. Leakey and Jane began planning a study of a group of chimpanzees who were living on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Kenya. At first, the British authorities would not approve their plan. At the time, they thought it was too dangerous for a woman to live in the wilds of Africa alone. But Jane¶s mother, Vanne, agreed to join

her so that she would not be alone. Finally, the authorities gave Jane the clearance she needed in order to go to Africa and begin her study In July of 1960, Jane and her mother arrived at Gombe National Park in what was then called Tanganyika and is now called Tanzania. Jane faced many challenges as she began her work. The chimpanzees did not accept her right away, and it took months for them to get used to her presence in their territory. But she was very patient and remained focused on her goal. Little by little, she was able to enter their world. At first, she was able to watch the chimpanzees only from a great distance, using binoculars. As time passed, she was able to move her observation point closer to them while still using camouflage. Eventually, she was able to sit among them, touching, patting, and even feeding them. It was an amazing accomplishment for Jane, and a breakthrough in the study of animals in the wild. Jane named all of the chimpanzees that she studied; stating in her journals that she felt they each had a unique personality. One of the first significant observations that Jane made during the study was that chimpanzees make and use tools, much like humans do, to help them get food. It was previously thought that humans alone used tools. Also thanks to Jane¶s research, we now know that chimps eat meat as well as plants and fruits. In many ways, she has helped us to see how chimpanzees and humans are similar. In doing so, she has made us more sympathetic toward these creatures, while helping us to better understand ourselves. The study started by Jane Goodall in 1960 is now the longest field study of any animal species in their natural habitat. Research continues to this day in Gombe and is conducted by a team of trained Tanzanians. Jane¶s life has included much more than just her study of the chimps in Tanzania. She pursued a graduate degree while still conducting her study, receiving her Ph.D. from Cambridge University in 1965. In 1984, she received the J. Paul Getty Wildlife Conservation Prize for "helping millions of people understand the importance of wildlife conservation to life on this planet." She has been married twice: first to a photographer and then to the director of National Parks. She has one son. Dr. Jane Goodall is now the world¶s most renowned authority on chimpanzees, having studied their behavior for nearly 40 years. She has published many scientific articles, has written two books, and has won numerous awards for her groundbreaking work. The Jane Goodall Institute for Wildlife Research, Education, and Conservation was founded in 1977 in California but moved to the Washington,D.C., area in 1998. Its goal is to take the actions necessary to improve the environment for all living things. Dr. Goodall now travels extensively, giving lectures, visiting zoos and chimp sanctuaries, and talking to young people involved in environmental education. She is truly a great conservationist and an amazing human being. Read this sentence from the article. 1. 'But she was very patient and remained focused on her goal'. What is an

Ans: B Read this sentence from the article. Directions for Questions 6-10: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage. There are some men who seem to be always on the lookout for trouble and, to tell

the truth, they are seldom disappointed. Listening to such men one would think that this world is one of the stormiest and most disagreeable places. Yet, after all it is not such a bad place and the difficulty is often in the man who is too thinskinned. On the other hand, the man who goes out expecting people to be like himself, kind and brotherly, will be surprised at the kindness he meets even in the most unlike quarters. A smile is apt to be met met with a respective smile while the sneer is just as apt to provoke a snarl. Men living in the same neighborhood may live vastly different lives. But it is not the neighborhood which is quarrelsome, but the man within us. And we have it in out power to change our neighborhood into a pleasant one by simply changing our own ways. 6.

Test Paper :6 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 5 March 2010 : Akuleti Balakrishna Reddy

Test Location : RGM Engg Col, Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh

INFOSYS PAPER ON 5th MARCH 2010 (At RGM Engg college, Kurnool, Andhra Praadesh) Hi Friends, I am Balakrishna Reddy from Intell Engineering College, Anantapur, AP. I¶ve attended the Infosys campus interview conducted at RGM engineering college, Kurnool, AP. Around 1000 students from around 7 colleges attended the interview and friends good news that i'm the one of lucky one to get chance to take training from Mysore. Now I'm sharing you my experiences with Infosys.

Eligibly: 60% in SSC 60% Intermediate 68% Engineering (up to the previous semester) Statistic: (Approx): Total Students=950 Students who cleared Aptitude Test=64 (Be careful huge reduction in this section) Students Select in interview=37(I am one of them) Selection Process: Analytical & Logical reasoning :( 30 question: 40 minutes) English section: (40 question : 35 minutes) Sectional cutoff is not informed officially but I heard that there is 60% cutoff in first Section, & 50% from second section. Study Materials: Verbal & Non verbal-R.S . Agarwal. GRE barron¶s 12th edition( for English ) And ofcourse last but not least Freshersworld Written Test: Reasoning I could not remember clearly but sure they are easy but the thing is that you have less time. There are 5 questions on photograph problems in which five different pictures are given the odd one is asked to find out. And also there are 5 questions on a graph. And the remaining questions are also easy. English This paper has 2 paragraph questions each having 5 questions. One of them is a big parameter and other a little bit shorter one. And a few questions on sentence correction. Fill in the Blanks: Gain a details idea on preposition, phrase etc. The result was announced after 3-4 hours. Selected students were asked to wait for the interview. HR Interview: I was in the two persons¶ panel. And I was interviewed two times. I advise you should be fully aware of what you have written in your CV. Dress formally and look presentable for the interview. Remember the interviewer will be watching you from the moment you enter the room. Be cool. Listen to them obediently. Do not be in a hurry to answer the questions. They may complement your answers if they wish. First interview: I asked may I come in madam. She gave the permission. I stood for a few seconds. Then she asked me to sit. She asked general questions at the first like about our family, and my high school etc. Then she asked me to explain my plus points with example. I wrote that I had organized a college day function, so she asked me how I organized the program. She expected very detailed answer from me. I tried to the

maximum extent. She then told me how to organize clearly and she added more points to my view. So many questions were asked on teamwork and leadership. Second interview: After Completing the first interview one interviewer told me Balakrishna, we are very sorry, Please wait for some time outside, we may call you again. ´ Second person Is a gent. He has more concentrated on eye to eye contact. He started with the question What questions did madam asked you?´. I told a few questions. He was noting down some thing on the paper while I was answering. He too asked how can I organize a quiz program in which we have to invite two other colleges. I tried my level best. Final two questions are: Hr: What will you do if I won¶t hire you? Me: I will improve my skills and I will attend all I opportunities as my aim is to become a software engineer. Hr: No more questions to ask you. You may leave the hall. Me: Thank you sir. Result: I was too much tensed because in second interview at the last sir asked If u are rejected´. And luckily I am one of the 37 students who are finally selected for the training at Mysore. Thank God. Thank Freshersworld. Don¶t worry you people can also get selected in Infosys. Waiting for joining date. See you at Mysore. All the best.

Test Paper :7 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 2 December 2010 : Shiva Neyyila

Test Location : AITAM, Tekkali, Srikakulam Dist

(At RGM Engg college, Kurnool, Andhra Praadesh) Hi Friends, I am Shiva from AITAM, Tekkali (Srikakulam Dist), AP. I have attended the Infosys campus interview conducted at our college, Tekkali, AP. Around 180 students attended the interview and friends good news that i'm the one of lucky ones to get chance to take training from Mysore. Now I'm sharing you my experiences with Infosys. Eligibility: 60% in SSC 60% Intermediate 68% Engineering (up to the previous semester) Statistic: (Approx)

Total Students=180 Students who cleared Aptitude Test=20 (Be careful huge reduction in this section) Students Select in interview=14 (I am one of them) Selection Process: Analytical & Logical reasoning: (30 questions, 40 minutes) English section: (40 questions, 35 minutes) Sectional cutoff is not informed officially but I heard that there is 60% cutoff in first Section, & 50% from second section. Study Materials: Verbal & Non verbal R.S. Aggarwal. GRE barron's 12th edition (for English) And ofcourse last but not least Freshersworld.com Written Test: Reasoning I could not remember clearly but sure they are easy but the thing is that the problem of time. Five questions were asked on figure Analogy, five were on data sufficiency, another five on data interpretation. This time instead of syllogism they asked the questions based on logical linkage and connectivity of two given statements for each quesion. Those all questions looking easy but the 10 Questions based on Group reasoing where i felt verytough are taken more time to solve. But i failed to solve 7 questions out of 10 from group reasoning. So be careful in managing the time. English This paper has 2 paragraph questions each having 5 questions. Both of the paragraphs given in my exam are lengthy but very easy, do the Reading Comprehension at the last. And a few questions on sentence correction. Fill in the Blanks: Gain a details idea on prepositions, phrases etc. My suggesion is be good at english grammar which is a key factor in solving the Error detection and Correction questions. The result was announced after 2 hours. Selected students were asked to wait for the interview. HR Interview: I was the first person entering the HR Panel after the Immediate announcement of the shortlisted candidates in Written test. I advise you should be fully aware of what you have written in your Resume.

Dress formally and look presentable for the interview. Remember the interviewer will be watching you from the moment you enter the room. Be cool. Listen to them obediently. Do not be in a hurry to answer the questions. They may complement your answers if they wish. MR (Managerial Round) interview: The HR people of Infosys are very friendly. So the only quality you should show is the Confidence. My interview is mainly focussed on extracircular activites, personal Interests like Goals, Hobbies etc. Be perfect at your project and other extra presentations given by you. Try to ask some Questions to them if they offer you about your Questions. Result: Luckily I am one of the 14 students who are finally selected for the training at Mysore. Thank God. Don't worry you people can also get selected in Infosys. Waiting for joining date. See you at Mysore. All the best!

Test Paper :8 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 29 August 2010 : Raman Kumar Tarika

Test Location : Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology, Delhi

Test Location : Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology, Delhi Test Date : 29th August, 2010 Submitted by : Raman Kumar Tarika Infosys paper 2010. This is Raman Kumar from Noida. I am 2009 MCA passed out from ABES Engineering College, Ghaziabad. Friends it was the off-campus drive. The Written test was on 29th August. Aptitude paper of Infosys are little bit tough in compare to others. This was my second attempt for Infosys, First was when i was in College (On Campus) in 2008.

I have already listened many times that If you can Clear the Written Exam of Infosys it means you have made it upto 70%. In the Interview, you just need to be active. So I prepared for the same.Before written exam, a Pre-Placement talk was scheduled but later on cancelled due to heavy rush and less space. Important points to clear the written exam: 1. R.S. Aggarwal is good enough for preparation of written exam. 2. A week's prepration can make you through. But you have to practice it seriously. 3. Time management is the biggest factor. 4. Follow the rules defined by Infosys. They are the company of etiquettes. 5. Philosophical (from me): Make your Desire really strong and also provide the actions that can match your desire. When you are appearing for the test then forget all the world just go into it. Written Exam: There were two sections 1. Aptitude and Logical reasoning (30 questions, 30 minutes) 2. English ( 35 questions, 40 minutes) Aptitude and Logical reasoning: I don't remember the exact questions. But I remember the topics 1. Problems on Ages 2. Time and Work (Questions like- A can do this in 8 hrs and b can in 10 hrs, then A+B?) 3. Percentage 4. Puzzles 5. Logical Problems 6. Numbers 7. Missing figure 8. Data sufficiency English: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Paragraph Inferences (Select the sentence that doesn't match) Sequesnces of Sentences according to priority Correct the sentence Other Grammer

Practice all the above topics. All type of questions at least once. When I was doing the Written Exam, I felt - Thank God I have spent last two days in the prepration because my preparation for the exam was really helping me. After submitting the test, I was confident and feeling that I'll clear but I was continuously asking God for his grace and help. We had to wait for a long time for the results. Near about 5 p.m. in the evening

they announced. All the sheets were passing out and I was hungry to listen my name. Then the person who was announcing the result spoke "This is the Last Sheet and only 10 candidates on it." On the 5th number he announced "Raman Kumar". I had cleared the written exam. They told us Interview dates and Venue will be informed us by mail. 170 students were selected from the interview. Interview: I got the mail for Interview. My Interview held on 16th September at Nehru Place, New Delhi. Note: Infosys interviewers are really experienced persons. There were lots of Old age persons in the panel. They really notice your etiquettes. Be Polite. They are Nice people. Main thing is that they are questioning to hire you not to reject you. Give then Good response and you'll be picked up. Show them your learning ability. Show them your way of problem solving. Read Puzzles before going into the Interview. My Interview: I was sitting in the waiting room. An old persons called my name and told me to wait outside the room. After some wait, they called me inside. They were Two persons. Both were aged ones. really experienced. Me: May I come In, Sir? HR: Yes, please. I entered and shut the door very softly that it didn't make any noise and stood by the chair. HR: Have a seat. Me: Thank you, sir. and sat down ( By following the way in which we should sit in front of them (straight)& with positive body language) They read my resume for some time and I was expecting that there first question will be "Some thing about yourself" and I was preparing for this one. But they shocked me by asking an UnExpected question as technical first one. HR: For How long you lived in Punjab? Me: Pardon sir? HR: For How long you lived in Punjab?(They repeated) Me: Told HR: What your father's occupation Me: Told (Shopkeeper and Milkman) HR: Ok. (silence for a moment) so Raman in which company you are working

Me: Told HR: Something about the Company? Me: Told enough described the company's domain and strength and clients. HR: About the project in which you are working? Me: I described the project in detail. I spoke for nr about 2 mins. They were noticing my way of presentation. When i stopped, I noticed i have described it nicely. Main thing was the selection of words and terms that you use. They want to check your presentation. (Then they asked so many question from that description) HR: Have you faced or stuck to any problem while working on this project? Me: Yes sir HR: Which type of problem and how did you solve it? Me: (They want to know your way of handling the problems - Be ready for this) Told - ( I gave them an Example of Regular Expression)- Guys , Please use the Examples while answering - Real Life Examples. Now, again they started to read my Resume and started picking questions from there. Guys, Telling you honestly. You must read your resume and prepare for everything that you have written in technical Resume. OR You must write the things in the resume that you know and you can describe very well. HR: Raman, You have written here you have participated in functions? can you tell us what type of functions? What happened there? Me: Told (Given the example of Quiz Competition and Speech Competition that i really participated in during my School and College time) HR: Have you organized any Function as a leader? Me: Yes sir. HR: Tell us something about that Event and Your Team? How did you moralized your team? Me: Told. I explained them by speaking the same wording that a captain should speak to his team before a Match. HR: Have you faced any problem while the function was going on and you were hosting the stage and how did you handled it at a time? Me: Explained the problem with a real Example and Told them how i managed the situation without letting anyone know. HR: Define us more? ( They just wanted to check my Communication and Presentation) Me: Explained. HR: One more question from my Resume from my Interests that were written in Resume Then HR: (Again the Question from my Hobbies and Interests) Why Adventure is your Hobby?

Me: Explained well and ended with a 'Quote' that I read in my English literature book in my Graduation time. (Telling you Guys, that was a Punch, a Shot) That quote also ended the Interview. HR: Ok, Raman thats it from our side and (Silence) Me: Should I leave , Sir? HR: Yes. Me: I stood up and thanked both of them Individually. They smiled. One of them was noticing me when I was going out of the room and closing the door. ( We were told that results would be sent to your mail) After a long wait. After two Months and 7 days I got the call from Infosys that I got selected and then in the evening they sent the Offer Letter. (Yipppeee!) I thanked God for his grace and also a Big thanks to Freshersworld.com as old papers helped me a lot. I am going to Join Infosys on 24th January. Best of Luck, friends. Feeling happy to share the experience with all of you! See you there in Infosys! For any query mail me at: [email protected]

Test Paper :11 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 11 September 2010 : Samrat Sinha

Test Location : Kolkata

Hello Friends,

I am Samrat Sinha of BITM, Santiniketan, West bengal. I hope my Infosys selection procedure will be of some help for you. Infosys organised a off-campus recruitment in Kolkata on 11th September 2010. There were around 1200 students apperaing for that recruitment drive that day. The aptitude paper was easy comapred to other companies and guys do keep in mind there is no negative marking, so first answer those questions of which you are sure of and then just tick the others as well. For the aptitude test, practising Quantitative Aptitude & Verbal & Non-Verbal reasoning both by R.S. Aggarwal will be enough. The paper was divided into two parts, first quantitative & then Verbal and nonverbal. There were questions on puzzles, syllogism, antonyms and synonyms, comprehension. Luckily i cleared the aptitude and was called for interview the very next day.

Below is my Interview experience: Date: 12th September 2010. The HR was around 50 years old. Me: Good afternoon Sir HR: Good afternoon, have a seat. Me: Thank you Sir. HR: So, Samrat tell me about yourself. Me: I just gave a normal introduction of my family background, education background. HR: What is the meaning of your name? Me: Answered. HR: Can you name any emperor? Me: Sure Sir, Samrat Ashoka. HR: He was of which dynasty? Me: Answered. HR: OK Samrat, how is the day for yoy? Me: Answered fluently that today is a very special day for me as i am siting here, giving interview for such a reputed company and etc etc. HR: How was yesterday then? Me: Yesterday was also very special as i cleared the aptitude test etc etc. HR: Nothing about the food that you had, the weather Me: Sir, yesterday and today are special for me only because of Infosys otherwise it would have just been a normal day for me. HR: Ok. Tell me about your project. Me: Gave an overview of the project. HR: Why this project? Me: Gave sum justified reasons. HR: Suppose you have 12 days to prepare for CAT, how will you do it? Me: Sir, if i have just 12 days then first of all i would try to get the knowledge of the CAT question paper and then suppose if there are two topics, Quantitative & verbal and non-verbal then i will devote 5 days each to them and i will keep the last two days for practising previous year papers so that i get acquainted with them. HR: Ok Samrat you can leave now. Me: Thank you Sir. It was a pleasure to interact with you. HR: Same here. Then the officials announced that the result will be communicated via email very shortly. But they took exactly two months. On 12th November, i got the offer letter from Infosys. Guys just be confident during the interview and give your full effort

for aptitude paper because there is no technical round in Infosys. Wishing you all the best in your respective lives.

Test Paper :13 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 11 September 2010 : Surya prakash choudhary

Test Location : Heritage Institute of Technology. Kolkata

Hi Friends, This is Surya prakash choudhary from B.I.E.T Suri(west bengal). I took party in offcampus conducted by Infosys technologies. There was no negative marking. There were two papers. Paper 1(40 questions, 40 minutes). paper 2(35 questions ,30 minute). In paper 1 there were logical, quantitative, Verbal and Non Verbal reasoning questions. 5 problems from figure type odd one out reasoning(they wer easy). 5 problems from Data Interpretation(they we also easy). There were 5 logical probs based on some facts, they were somewhat difficult, I coluldn¶t do those probs But guessed one single option. There were 5 problems Based on some facts, I also couldn¶t do that due to lack of time and guessed. There were some more logical problems, you can practice them from R.S. Aggarwal. One suggestion you don¶t need 2 worry about shakuntala devi puzzle or summers puzzles because I couldn¶t find problemss from there. You just practise different types from R.S Aggarwal and most important thing you should know various types only, by cool mind you can solve any problem. Paper 2 was English knowledge test, there were 2 comprehension one very easy and one difficult(total 10 questions). There were sentence completion question(mainly from preposition, article, verb etc). There were also sentence correction questions. So, friends you need to manage year time well and year Level

of English. About 1500 hundred students appeared for the test from various colleges of West Bengaland out of them 393 cleared aptitude round. As usual they didn¶t ask any technical question in interview. I went here with cool mind and they told that they will send final results via email. Still waiting for confirmation but I'm sure that I will must be selected, hope this experience may help you guys in clearing aptitude round because aptitude round is the main elimination round in infosys. See you guys in infosys soon. HR: So Surya, tell me something about your project. ME: I explained well. HR: What was the most interesting in your project? ME: I explained. HR: Tell me something about your family background Me: Told HR: Asked many questions from resume. I had mentioned quiz so he asked 4-5 G.K questioned and luckily I answered and at last he told me nice 2 meet you and you can leave now.

Test Paper :14 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 11 September 2010 : Sourya

Test Location : Heritage Institute of Technology

Hope you are all doing great in life Friends

,

I would like to share my experience with all who happen to browse through this beautiful and should. I add a very informative website for freshers like me

I hope my experience in the aptitude and HR round might help you all in some way. Students from many engineering colleges in West Bengal attended this campussing. The venue was Heritage institute of technology and the whole process took place through 2 days (11th and 12th September). As most of you know, Infosys has two different sections in their aptitude test 1) One was the Reasoning aptitude test(30 questions which included data interpretation, logical reasoning, pictorial puzzles, basic derivative mathematical problems) 2) Another part was the Verbal aptitude test(40 questions which included 2 long passages, sentence correction, fill in the blanks with appropriate words, replace a part of a sentence with the correct verbal phrase) No negative marking in either of the sections, but I am not sure whether there are sectional

cut-offs. So be sure to attempt all the questions in both sections, don¶t dawdle with one question if you don¶t know it. Be sure to pass one to the next one, remember in such little time utilizing every minute is very very important. Even 1 correct or 1 wrong answer could make the difference. It is a very thin line that might help you to nail the job or get yourself nailed. Total students appeared Approx 2000 Shortlisted for HR 390 This Aptitude rounds are the ones where a staggering 1600 students got eliminated, which in this case amounts to 80% of the strength My interview was a 1:1 panel. Trust me when I tell you that Infosys HRs are very frank and cool. I entered the room after asking for permission (always ask for permission before you step in) Me: may I come in sir HR: yes, please come in The HR was sitting in his chair, so I reached out spontaneously for a handshake and greeted him a very good morning. He looked up to me and extended his hand very pleasingly and smiled and replied good morning. Many say that you shouldn¶t extend your hand first for the handshake if the HR doesn¶t. But many think that¶s rubbish and i too share the same opinion. Shaking the hand is a way of showing courtesy and greeting the person. It also shows that you are not nervous and you are confident, so it helps in creating a good positive impression about you in the HR¶s mind even before the interview has begun. A good firm (not bonecrushing) handshake acts like a pleasant stimulator. HR: please take the seat Me: (while taking my chair) thank you so much I kept my hands on the table and sat leaning forward, when the HR said please sit back in your chair and relax Sourya. So I did that And then he asked me How was yesterday Sourya? Me: Sir, it was fine HR: describe yesterday Answered HR: how do you approach a problem? Answered HR: what projects have you done? Answered HR: how do you prepare for your exams? Answered HR: suppose you had 15 days left for your final semester exams, how would you prepare yourself? Answered HR: tell me about your project? Answered HR: tell me about your family background? Answered HR: So, you are the only son of your parents ME: yes, sir, I am the only son

HR: How many were there in your project group? Answered HR: Thank you ME: thank you very much Sir And left the room, the questions he asked were very innocent questions, atleast they may look like innocent, but the HR comes to know a lot about you from these very basic questions, be very honest and confident. It¶s obvious to be a bit nervous and make some mistakes as a fresher. But just focus that you don¶t create a negative impression to the HR. Believe in yourself and trust your God.

Test Paper :16 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 17 January 2010 : Roja.I

Test Location : Vasavi College of Engineering

Hi Friends, I'm Roja from Vasavi College of Engineering, Hyderabad. Recently Infosys visited our campus on Jan 17th. First we have a test at 10 a.m. It went on for 70 min. Then have pre-placement talk by them. The test pattern is like. It includes 2 sections. First the aptitude and then the verbal section. The Aptitude paper includes 1. (1-5) questions a puzzle is given. It goes on like, A, B, C, D, E, F bought a bike each on each of the days from Monday to Saturday, no two buy the bike on same day and some 6 conditions are given. Sorry I don't remember all those but if you follow that conditions you can easily solve it. I suggest you to do Puzzle test exercise from Verbal & Non Verbal Reasoning by R.S. Aggarwal. 2. (6-10) questions. Finding the odd figure out. These are so easy. Just follow R.S.Aggarwal same book. 3. (11-15) questions. Problems based on Data sufficiency. These are also from the same book mentioned above. 4. (16-20) questions. Data interpretation. A table of values are given and accordingly the questions are given. For this, follow Quantitative Aptitude by R.S. Aggarwal 5. (21-25) questions Again a puzzle is given. Similar to the first one. 6. (26-30) questions Syllogisms for this follow R.S. Aggarwal Verbal and non-verbal Reasoning. Logic do 1B exercise in that unit.

The Verbal Section includes 1. Two big RCs, and 10 questions are given on that. I suggest you to do them at last. First read the questions and see the passage, then it will be easy. 2. Then sentence completion questions. 3. Theme detection. 4. Deriving Conclusion from passages. In our college 209 out of 362 are selected for written and we have HR. MY HR Interview: Me: May i come in ma'am? Hr: Yes come Roja. Take your seat ( gave handshake ) Me: Thank you ma'am. Hr: You should i hire you in my company? Me: Blah..Blah..Blah.. Hr: Tell me about your mini project? Me: Said. Hr: Tell me about your main project? Me: Said. Hr: What are your extra curricular activities?? Me: Said. Hr: Did u organize any events in your college? Me: Said. Hr: What is your goal? Me: Said. Hr: (asked about my paper presentation in my resume) Hr: Ok Roja, any questions?? Me: No ma'am. Hr: OK all the best( And again a handshake) Me: Thanks ma'am. Then they wanted to give the result along with Wipro. I was tensed for about 15 days. Finally they gave the result on Jan 31st, 2010. 174 out of 209 was taken. Luckily, i was one of them. Thanks to Freshersworld. I wish you all the Best. Be prepared to become an Infoscian. Good Luck.

Test Paper :17 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 22 January 2010 : Deepak Ojha

Test Location : SVITS, Indore

Infosys paper on 22nd Jan 2010 at Indore. Hi Friends, I am Deepak Ojha from svits, Indore. There was a campus drive by Infosys in our college campus on 22nd Jan 2010. Their eligibility criteria is 60% for class 10th and 12th,65% for B.E. (Guys beware it is avg. marks not the aggregate) and they are very much strict about their criteria, even 64.99 % is not allowed. About 180 eligible students appeared for the written test of infosys. And friends good news that i'm the one of lucky one to get chance to take training from Mysore training center, the largest corporate university in the world. Statistic: Total Students: 180 Students who cleared Aptitude Test: 71(Be careful huge reduction in this section) Students Select in interview: 55(I am one of them) Some key points: 1. If you clear the written, there are 90% chances of selection. 2. Always reply in interview with full confidence and preferably by taking an example. Selection Procedure: Infosys is such a company where there is no barrier in stream. That means students from any stream can sit in Infosys. There are no direct Technical round in Infosys. The whole Selection Process contains two section aptitude test. Analytical & Logical reasoning i.e. aptitude test:(30 questions: 40 minutes) English/verbal section: (40 questions: 35 minutes)

Friends they will not tell about any sectional cut off be careful about section cutoff, but I think that there might be a sectional cutoff, so do well in both sections to ensure your selection. After Aptitude test HR interview. Study Materials for aptitude test: Verbal & Non verbal R.S. Agarwal, Quantitative aptitude R.S. Aggarwal. Some Time¶s/PT's CAT study materials. And ofcourse last but not least Freshersworld (Be Regular & update with this site, You will get really very help) Analytical & Logical reasoning: Friends the order of questions are as follows(There is no negative marking) Questions 1-5 are based on ranks. They are very much easy and can be solved within 5 minutes. Questions 6-10 on choose the odd man out from the figure series (some are easy some are moderate) Questions 11-15 based on normal mathematics. (I do not remember them properly) Questions 16-20 based on pie chart, a very easy one Questions 21-25 based on a puzzle. Puzzle is like that "there are 5 persons in the family a, b, c, d, e and they are Farmer, Doctor, Trader, Lawyer, Engineer and we have to find the correct match for each a, b, c, d, e based on some more info given". Questions 26-30 based on syllogisms. English/verbal Section: Friends do this section with a very cool mind because time given for this is less. Two passages and 5 question from each passages: Do it at the last and before reading the passage see the question one time. Sentence Correction: Be care about tense mistake, spelling mistake, using of pronoun. Fill in the Blanks: Gain a details idea on preposition, phrase, idioms. Theme Detection. Identification of some supporting or weakening sentences about a paragraph given HR Interview Now the final section. The only one solution to crack the interview is keeping yourself cool. Friends believe me the Infosys HR panel are the coolest person in the world (At least for my panel). And always think that they are taking your Interview to select you, not to reject you. Be friendly, polite with them and follow the proper etiquettes. My HR panel consists of one person. He is of around 55-60 years of age. He is too good and very friendly. Interview Me: May I come in sir? HR: Yes, please come in, have a seat. Then he stood up and shake hands with me. Me: Thank you sir. HR: Ok tell me something about your routine work? Me: I told HR: How you prepare for your exams. Tell me the whole process by taking an example.

Me: HR: Me: HR:

I told Do you have given any paper presentation? Told with the example of instance when i gave the seminar? Are you a good leader?

Me: Yes, I am and explain this by taking the examples of my projects and difficulties encountered in that and how i overcome that and accomplish the project successfully. HR: Ok, Deepak do you read books? Me: Yes sir, and told the name of books that i read and how they benefited me. HR: Then he asked me about my family and just a casual talk after that. HR: Ok, Deepak nice to talk you. At last, he stood up and shook hands with me. then i gently stood up and say. Me: Thank you sir and have a nice day My interview was good and i'm quite sure that, i'm through and got selected in my dream company. It was like a dream comes true. Ok, my friends so this is my story that how i cracked the infosys. Meet you at Mysore. Good bye and Have Good Luck.

Test Paper :18 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 7 January 2010 : Rahul Kumar

Test Location : COER, Roorkee

Hello Friends, This is Rahul Kumar from FET, GKV and I was selected by Infosys on 7th Jan 2010, through pool campus recruitment conducted in COER, Roorkee. The whole procedure was as follows: 1) Pre-Placement talk 2) Written test (Analytical thinking and logical Reasoning + Verbal ability test (English)) 3) Interview 1) Pre-Placement talk: Do listen to it carefully friends because it helps you to know what kind of ppl. Infosys is looking for and helps you to prepare better for interview. 2) Written test comprised of 2 pprs. i) Reasoning section: It comprised of 30 questions in 40 mins. Containing 2 puzzles with 5 questions each. 5 figurative series questions, 5 questions from data sufficiency, 5 questions from the. In Syllogism each. (These two saved me). Try to

score as high as you can as question is really easy and sectional cut off matters. Just go with the basic study material of any MBA preparation coaching. (I opted for Time's) Thats more than enough or either go with R.S. Aggarwal (Verbal and nonVerbal reasoning) pay more stress on verbal reasoning and for the. I just have a look at R.S. Aggarwal Quantitative book. Thats it. ii) English section: 40 questions in 35 mins and you might feel time is less but believe me its not. It consisted of 2 big RC's (Attempt dem at last as its time taking) with 5 questions each, fill in the blanks, sentence correction, questions on replacing the phrases with suitable meaning and theme detection small questions read dem once and you will find the answer. For RC's better read the questions first and then start reading the passage. Once you come across ne of the answer mark it in your answer sheet sometimes you don't have to read the whole passage and it saves time. For grammar go for basic grammar book (have a look at Tenses, Prepositions, Articles etc.) or again go for basic Time's study material. 3) Interview: HRs in infosys are really cool and they make you relax once you enter the interview room. No puzzle was asked to me in my interview. Mine was a ladies HR and she was really a very cool lady. Just a few Questions based on my resume but nothing technical(no need 2 worry). Until you mention project you just need to backup your strengths written in your resume with examples don't lie or try to dominate them they are smart enough just be cool and be confident and maintain your smile basically they will check your communication skills and your confidence. My interview lasted for almost 20 mins. And Finally results were announced at 1 a.m in the morning 3 hours after the interview and BINGO. I was one among the 22 lucky students selected from our college. Best of luck guys and I hope you find my experience helpful. Don't forget to take help from your seniors it really helps you a lot in preparation. Thanks for reading.

Test Paper :19 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 7 January 2010 : Arighna Roy

Test Location : Institute of Engineering & Management

Hi Friends, I am Arighna Roy from IEM, Kolkata. There was an in campus selection process of Infosys in our college campus on 7th Jan, 2010. Around 110 students appeared for this interview from 3 different streams. 52 students were selected. I was one of those lucky guys. Statistics: No. of streams : 3 No. of students: 110 No. of students cleared aptitude test : 58 No. of students selected : 52 Selection Procedure: Infosys is such a company where there is no restriction for any stream. That means students from different streams are welcome to this selection process and they are treated equally. They just check whether you have adaptability or not. The whole Selection Process contains two steps · Aptitude Test · HR Interview The Aptitude test is divided into two different sections: · Analytical & Logical reasoning:(30 questions: 40 minutes)

· English section: (40 questions: 35 minutes) This section removed about 50% students. So be careful about this section. They didn¶t tell about any sectional cutoff. But i think there was a sectional cutoff. Few of my friends were deselected in this round doing very good in a single section. There was no negative marking. So don¶t leave anything unmarked. At last if you are going for any wild guess then I¶will suggest you to go with a single number. Then at least few of those could be correct. Study Materials: · Freshersworld.com shared experiences · R.S. Aggarwal verbal & non-Verbal · GRE Barron Analytical & Logical reasoning:(30 questions : 40 minutes) Figure series (R.S. Aggarwal) Four different figures were given with slight changes. You have to get the pattern of changes and then to guess the 5th figure from 4 options. Don¶t try to get the actual figure. Rather try it from options. Data Interpretations(GRE Barron) Two bar charts were given.5 questions were given from these charts. Those were really easy. Analytical Ability Questions (GRE Barron) One paragraph was provided.5 questions were following. First solve the problem. Then go for the questions. Don¶t see the questions first. English section: (40 questions : 35 minutes) This section was a bit tough. Practice from GRE Barron. Synonyms and Antonyms were not needed. 2 reading comprehension were there 5 questions each. Fill in the blanks Sentence correction Questions were not that tough. But the speed does matter. Go for the reading comprehension at last. Do the others first. Then you can get confidence. I think the cutoff was very high. Because the questions were easy. So never think that what ever you have done is enough. Nothing is enough. HR interview: Now the final round. The only one solution to crack the interview is keeping yourself cool and confident. Friends believe me the Infosys HR panel are the coolest person in the whole world(At least for my

panel). And always think that they are taking your Interview to select you, Not to reject you. Be friendly, polite and honest with them. Don¶t get nervous. If you are getting confused then put your hand on your heart and say aal is well´. kidding. There was only one round. Few students were asked for the second round. So don¶t think that you are done with the interview. We had to sit in a room until the whole interview session was over. Always prepare with a set a photo copies of your mark sheets(from 10th to your last sem). And carry all your original mark sheets, all the certificates mentioned in the CV, 4 passport size photo, CV in a different channel file. ME: may I come in sir? HR: Yes come in Arighna right? So Arighna what happened to your HS marks?(he didn¶t give me time to greet him good morning) ME: Good morning sir. HR: Yes morning. Plz sit down. ME: Thank you sir« HR: Now tell me what happened to to your 12th marks(I had 74% in 12th) ME: Explained, told that that instead of having poor aggregate I had good marks in mathematics HR: Asked the marks in math. ME: Told 195 out of 200 HR: Well that¶s a very good marks. Then you were born to do math. Why didn¶t you go for BSC,MSC then PHD with math. You had better prospect on that. (Trying to check that whether I am satisfied with my studies or not) ME: I stuck on my decision and told that in engineering also we have math. HR: Yes but these are application math. But could have gone with pure math. ME: Up to 12th we had application math. I was good at that. Then explained why did I choose engineering study after 12th.(he impressed) HR: Ok« tell me what is Boolean algebra ME: Told HR: Where is it implemented? ME: In Computers

£

HR: Why ME: Told HR: Is it a tool or sth else? I don¶t know Boolean algebra. I am learning from you. (it was a trap. don¶t try to manage the question thinking that they don¶t know the subject. They can have a PHD on that subject. Be careful about the fact) ME: Explained(he impressed) HR: How do you solve problems? ME: Explained HR: If it is a financial problem then? ME: Told Do you have creativity? ME: Yes Prove it with an example ME: Told about event management in our college and locality. New ideas and plans over there. Ok Arighna nice meeting you. Do prosper in your life with mathematics. Never leave practicing it. There is no better subject that math. ME: Thank you sir. Nice meeting you. (hand shaking) Result: I was too tensed. The first name that they told was of mine, thank god, thanks freshersworld, thanks to my supportive family don¶t worry you can also crack it. See you in Mysore, Good bye.

Test Paper :20 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 2 December 2010 : Shiva Neyyila

Test Location : AITAM, Tekkali

Hello Everyone, Infosys visited our college on 2nd December 2010. This time once again they had the same selection procedure, with written exam being the main filter. With just over 180 candidates appearing for the exam only 20 made through it and then 14 were able to convert it into final selections. Exam was in two parts: 1. General Aptitude (Reasoning) 2. English General Aptitude: 1. Figure Analogy(5 bits, very easy) 2. 5 questions on data sufficiency (very easy) 3. 5 on data interpretation (Very Tricky) 4. 2 Group reasoning Problems(Very difficult i didnt able to solve 7 out of 10 questions) 5. 5 Questions on logical linking of two given statements(easy) 6. No question on syllogism! English: 1. 2 RCs (Easy, but do it at the last) 2. 8 choosing the correct sentence (Difficult) 3. 7 on error correction (easy) 4. 8-10 questions on Sentence completion (Very easy) 5. Theme Detection (Tricky) All in all, a candidate must have a good command over the language and just going through the Articles, Prepositions etc. on the last day won¶t work. After written exam, only HR of about 15-20 min on an average were taken which

include very general HR questions, specially related to the CV and the candidate¶s personal life only. Anyway, 14 were selected in the end and iam happpy for being one of them. To summarise, Infosys selection needed just good aptitude and better language command, so make sure that you acquire both well before Infosys. See you at Infosys, Bye.

Test Paper :21 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Candidate Experiences : 21 September 2010 : Saraansh

Test Location : UCER, Allahabad

Hello Guys, This post is for those who are interested in joining Infosys. As you all know that you have to go through 2 stages to get recruited in Infosys. 1) Written test (this is the main stage to clear as 80-90% are washed out in this round only), it consists of 2 section. a) Reasoning b) English 2) PI I don't remember the questions but yes I can help all by suggesting some points to clear the process. a) The written test is not so tough as it is told by everyone before giving the test. Whoever tells you that written is very tough he/she is trying to be over smart as they either have cleared it or failed to clear. b) You just have to prepare well logical reasoning, puzzles, completing the series of pictures,and some basic mathematical operations. This you can do from R.S. Aggarwal or any of the CAT coaching materials. c) For the English test prepare correction of sentences, preposition, putting the right words as fill in the blanks, spotting errors, and RC's. Please attempt the RC's at the last if you get time and read the questions 1st and then try to find the answers. Prepare the English from any basic book and those from English medium don't worry for this section. d) There is no negative markings so attempt all questions and be quick n confident. Now if you clear the written test you have to go through the PI section which a HR takes. Now for this section.

a) Your CV will be scanned so be ready to answer any questions from any where. b) They are going to play with you so don't lose your temper and have smile always be confident in answering. c) No need to tell them if you have an offer letter from other organizations and if you want to tell,tell them on your own risk. d) They even say I'll through you out. Say sorry and answer the questions. Rest All is well Best of luck! Hope to meet you guys in Mysore. For any queries you can mail me at http://[email protected]

Reasoning questions were like 1. 2 puzzles: Each had 5 question 2. 5 figures 3. 1 table- 5 questions 4. 5 syllogisms 5. 5 data sufficiency English was quite easy any average person with little practice can do. English contained: 1. 2 passage: 1 was very easy and other was little bit tougher. 2. Fill the blanks: 5 questions 3. Most suitable conclusion from the above given passage: 5 questions Result was announced on the same day and for interview they called next day. Prepare well project details for interview, they ask many times. For me it was full technical and asked about my projects only. It depends on your luck that what kind of HR you get. They announced that interview result will be send to e-mail id after 2-4 weeks. Lets see what happens.

It as per its regular pattern had 2 sections 1) Logical 30 questions, 40 min 2) Verbal 40 questions, 35 min Logical was very easy and one could finish it before time.

Test Paper :28 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : General - Interview : 27 March 2008 : Brajendra kumar patra

Test Location : ITER, Bhubaneswar

INFOSYS PAPER ON 27th MARCH AT BHUBANESWAR I am giving my experience throughout the day of campus recruitment by Infosys on 27th March, 2008 at our college (ITER, BBSR). Package is 3.25 per annum B.tech/BE/MCA. They gave a form where you need to enter your necessary details. You need one passport size color photograph and your percentage has to be calculated from total marks including an additional or optional subject that means all the subjects you have appeared. There were two written tests one is Reasoning ability test (RAT) and the other one is Verbal ability test (VAT). RAT was of 40 minutes for 30 questions and VAT was of 35 minutes for 40 questions. RAT:

It consist a north-south-east-west distance problem. 5 questions were asked based on this problem (very easy).5 Nonverbal reasoning questions i.e. finding out odd one out from 5 simple figures. A simple puzzle: One thief thefts a keyboard, a monitor and a printer from three separate stores on 3 different months January, February and march to make his own computer. He uses 3 different devices each once at a time. The devices were screwdriver, wire cutter and appliers. Wire cutter was sensitive to monitor. And some simple hints were given and you can find it out easily using a table. 5 questions were asked based on this puzzle. Other questions were from time and distance, probability, ratio and proportion, 3 to 4 other questions I¶ve not there and I simply bluffed as there were no negative markings. VAT: Two simple paragraphs were there. You need not have to read the paragraph thoroughly because you can get the answer of the question directly. Each paragraph had five questions each. Other questions are: 1) Fill in the blanks type 2) Correct the sentences type 3) Two statements would be given, you have to decide whether the third statement follows or not from the two given statements. More than 400 had appeared, out of them 131 were selected in the written. Out of them 122 were finally selected. The H.R interview of mine is as follow: Me: good afternoon sir He: very good afternoon (he forwarded his hand to shake hand with me). He asked me to have my seat Me: thank you sir. He: keep your file there and sign it here for your authentication (I signed in the application form given to us previously). He: other than academics what else you do? Me: sir I love to solve sudokus and riding cycle. He: what else? Me: I listen music and create a humorous environment. He: what else? Me: I some times help my younger brother in studies. He: what is he doing now? Me: he is continuing his BCA at NICE bbsr. He: who is your ideal person? Me: my brother.

He: why Me: explained and he got impressed. He: have you shown any leadership quality Me: yes sir, I was elected as leader for two consecutive years in my school. He: Asked me to explain how you had shown your leadership Me: done. He: tell me some good achievements of your life Me: done He: tell me your weakness and some failures in life. Me: said He: how you are going to overcome these. Me: (These sorts of questions I had already prepared; so done) He: ok (he laughed) and wished me all the best. And asked me to leave the place. Me: thank you sir. (And left). I was a bit nervous during the interview and my lips were getting dried as I was interviewed in the same way by WIPRO but God knows why I was not selected. Always try to say the truth the INFY people bring H.R professional from the meta-i group. They all are above age 40. They are quite experienced professionals. so don¶t bluff; some of my friends have been caught bluffing . Fresher world. Com is really helpful for me as it gives most recent campus experiences..

Test Paper :29 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : General - other : 12 March 2008 : Piyush Gaur

Test Location : JIITU Noida, UP

INFOSYS PAPER ON 12th MARCH 2008 Hi friends, I am Piyush Gaur from JIIT Noida. INFOSYS came to our campus on 12th and 13th of March. Three colleges participated namely JIIT Noida, JUIT Waknaghat(Solan) and JIET Guna. No. of students appeared: JIIT - 470 JUIT - 280 JIET - 183 No. of students selected after written test:

JIIT - 320 JUIT - 160 JIET - 70 No. of students finally selected: JIIT - 293 (I was luckily among them :-)) JUIT - 140 JIET - 41 Guys I think most of you must be knowing what Infosys and who all eligible (infact everybranch is eligible, one just have to clear that % criteria). Eligibility Criteria - 60% X 60% XII and 60% in all previous semesters. (For B.Tech only,MCA and M.Tech students do consult your TPO) Now before the written test there was a presentation in that we were told that try getting atleast 20 correct in both Analytical & Logical Reasoning section as well as Verbal section. There is no funda like upper cut off and no negative marking so attempt all the questions. At that time only the person told us that they are expecting around 500 selections so that was something which really gave us confidence. LOGICAL REASONING PART Questions: 30 Time: 40 mins Ques 1-5. It was a puzzle test on 7 people (A,B,C,D....G) playing cards. 100 cards were there distributed equally among them then there were some transactions like A got 5 cards from E etc etc.... something like this. Ques 6-10. All question were based on finding odd one out from the given figures. All were easy. Ques 11-15: Then came the Syllogisms 6 statements were given namely A,B,C,D,E & F. Then from the options we were to find which of them follow. Eg. options are 1. ABD 2. BEF 3. BDE 4. ACF 5. None of these. So work in a reverse manner i.e from Answer to question. Ques 16-20: A Data Interpretation question usually while solving the RS Agarwal you wont find them difficult but this one was not that easy. 2 graphs were given (both of them were line graphs) one was Liabilities as expenditure on safety mining. Another was percentage increase in liabilities per year. Language of the question was not that easy it demanded 2-3 readings. One ques I found to be bouncer type. Ques 21-25: Another puzzle was there this one was pretty simple than the previous one. Can be found in RS Agarwal Verbal and Non-Verbal. 6 aspirants were there preparing for bank examination RBI, ICSB and Andhra Bank. 3 males and 3 females with the given information make a table then apply logic to complete it. Ques 26-30: Then came the Data Sufficienct part again it was easy I think only one of them was bouncer type rest all were fine and easy. AFTER A BREAK OF 5 MINUTES next paper is distributed of: VERBAL PART Questions: 40 Time: 30 mins There were 2 passages for reading comprehension both were easy. There there were

sentence correction type questions those were also fine. Then came the fill in the blanks. Then there were questions in which we were asked to find grammatical mistakes that was also quite easy. Overall verbal section was easy than the logical aptitude section. This is what I felt and my other friends. Results were declared after 3 hours. Then Interviews started since due to large no. of selections most of the interviews were taken on the following day i.e. 13th or march. This one was mine Interview: Piyush: Good Afternoon sir Interviewer: Good afternoon, have a seat. P: Thank you sir I: So u r from biotech, y did u opted for it most of the girls opt for this field: P: No sir its not like that its just the matter of interest and I found biotech a diff. and upcoming field. I: What type of career u r expecting from biotech. P: Sir if I had to pursue my career in biotech only then i'll opt for Bioinformatics. (Then he had a breif look at my resume) I: Ok tell me what all you learned from ur last project? P: Blah Blah Blah Blah... I: Have u done any group project? P: Yes Sir I: What difficulties u faced in that? P: Blah Blah Blah Blah... I: What is the source of your information for latest technology? P: Newspapers, Magzines, Internet etc.. I: Which newspaper do u read? P: The Times of India I: On which page do u find the news regarding latest technology? P: Sir on Times Trends I: Which is the last news u read related to upcoming technology? P: News I read just 2-3 days ago. I: Ok fine Piyush. Do u want to ask any questions? Now this is the conclusion part it is very important always ask aleast a question. I asked two and he became very frank while answering them. Guys this the complete story of Infosys from my side. After clearing the written one thing is sure that u r 90% selected 10% depends on interview just dont spoil it. Answer questions nicely and avoid answering in only Yes or NO. All the best!!

Test Paper :30 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : Whole Testpaper : 20 March 2008 : Harshal Chaudhary

Test Location : Walchand College Of Engg

INFOSYS PAPER ON 20th MARCH 2008 Hi, friends this is HARSHAL CHAUDHARY a student of Walchand College of Engg and now also an Infosyian. I got selected for Infosys through the placement done by it, at Walchand. Here I am mentioning about my experience during the whole placement process. 1. Logical and critical reasoning test 30 questions 40 min 2. Verbal reasoning and English test 40 questions 35 min Logical and critical reasoning test 1-5Q ------- The question was based on three ladies having some money and a game played (These r the puzzle test ques of R.S aggrawal v &non-V Type 5). 2-10Q ----- The questions were figure related in which we had to find the correct figure in sequence. 11-15Q --16-20Q --- The question was related to DI in which a table showing number of students in different branches during 6 years were given and we had to answer questions having lot of caculations. So I suggest you to do it at last. 21-25Q --- The question was again puzzle type in which 5 peoples A,B,C,D,E ,F,Gand H r sitting aROUND A TABLE. 26-30Q --- The question was syllogism type. In this 6 statements were given with four combination choices like AFC, ACF etc and we had to find the correct logically related combination. (I recommend you to just go through R.S. Aggarwal Verbal & Non Verbal Reasoning. But prepare well for it. As its one of the deciding factors in clearing Aptitude test.) Verbal reasoning and English test 1 ---- There were two paragraphs. It will take time so attempt them at last. 2 ---- There were questions on sentence correction in which we had to find correct replacement for underlined part in passage. 3 ---- There were questions on finding the correct sentence among 4 given sentences.

4 ---- There were questions on filling up the blanks with suitable grammatical words. 5 ---- There were questions related to theme dectecion from a small passage. The main part or the eliminatoin part of INFOSYS is the Apttitude test &&&&& the rest is just a WALK ON CAKE. For our HR INTERVIEWS their were 5 panels and most them were too much experienced (age more than 45) HR INTERVIEW: me: MAY icome in hr: yes me: good after noon mam hr: go.... . me: tha....

Test Paper :33 Paper Type Test Date Posted By : General - other : 18 March 2008 : Himansu

Test Location : Orissa Engineering College, Bhubaneswar

INFOSYS PAPER ON 18th MARCH AT BHUBANESWAR Hello friends, This is Himansu here, from Orissa Engineering College, Bhubaneswar. Infy visited our college campus on 18th march, for recruitment. The schedule was cutout and pretty much timebound. The basic process remain the very same, i.e., 1. Pre placement Talk 2. Written Round 3. Interview The PPT started right at 9.30am, when 2 delegates came n started off with their presentations and provided information and life, work and processes at Infosys and its requirements. Jot the points down, if you feel it necessary. Right after that, the students proceeded to assigned rooms for written round. Initially, they give a form - which you need to supervise carefully and fill in the details without much manipulation. But dont worry, they will guide you about that in the PPT itself. Right after that, written round started. It was the very same pattern , timing and kind of questions - which by now, you are expected to know. After the written part was over, the results were declared after 1.5 hr. Out of the 270 odd appeared, 43 cleared the written part. After few minutes, the 43 guyz were to proceed to interview arena. And there were 6 panels, all set for interviewing the candidates. The HR people of Infy are normally highly experienced and seasoned. So kindly don't exaggerate your resume, information or over-burden your folder with unnecessary certificates (for example, 2nd prize in debate, 1st prize in painting) - is what I feel. Because normally they don't go beyond your resume and scoresheet. However, the most important aspect is how and what you write in your resume. Be very

clear and know your CV. They can trap you wonderfully , if you are not well read on that aspect. I'll tell you briefly about my interview process. I was asked about my academic gap, hobbies ( asked hell a lot out of it ), long term goals, how to organize a competition, a small puzzle and many other questions. They may also ask technical questions (yes, be prepared anyway). Little bit of nervousness is absolutely normal. Just keep yourself collected, b clear n proper in diction, b cheerful and hope for the best. Some say, believing in God and all is very important. That is very true.But prior to everything, You got to believe Yourself completely. Do your best, n hope sab thik ho. From our interview process, 38 out of 42 were selected. I have seen very great contenders and my best friend being left out, out of sheer bad luck in their part. Alrite.. Wrote enough to provide adequate info... Pray your fellow God, seek some luck and just do well. All the best, all of you aspirants.

Madam: have u ever got angry... Me: don't try to fool, them n be honest..also give an example how u ot angry at a particular situation n for that reason u did a better job..so that negativity of u 'll reflet ur positive personality..that's the trick...

Test Location : Mody Institute of Tech & Science, Lakshmangarh

INFOSYS PAPER ON 12th MARCH 2008 Hello People!! first of all ....all the very best for ur Infy Exam.... Infy is my dream company ...n its the fourth company i have cracked after Satyam, TCS, and Accenture...feels like heaven!!!!!!!! anyways people who still dnt have a job...don't worry infy won't leave u disappointed..'coz it took a lot of people from my college about 200 people appeared for the test about 132 got shortlisted for the interview... and 115 got selected..... huge number isn't it???? Written Exam Carry ur marksheets they need ur xact marks of coll, X n XII n they verify those so be careful ur CV also has the consistent data Analytical Section 30 ques 40 min Here u got to be 100% involved in the paper...don't assume the analytical part to be too simple 'cz so many ppl qualified...max. of my freinds were preparin for MBA n that's the reason of so many selections...... so regarding analytical 1.10 questions puzzle type- prepare analytical problem from Puzzle test R.S Aggarwal....but they are actually too simple n infy asks a bit higher than those...similar to those of Barrons 12th edition 2. 5 ques- syllogism...remember all rules from again R.S Aggarwal Verbal Non-Verbal 3. 5 ques-Conclusion, In Conclusion Questions dnt assume anything on ur own...just imagine u know nothing about the topic and all u know is what is written in the question and then read the options 4. 5 ques figure -odd one out -Well, I attepted figure questions the firt 'coz they were too easy n no need practising the 500 questions in RS. 5. 5 ques DI- pie chart type...practice 4m RS Quanti so that was analytical....u may go without ne preps also but with a fresh mind and then

solve questions with all ur effort...but manage time well Verbal Section 40 ques 35 min Now this depends 4m person 2 person...since i always loved English...this was very easy 4 me... Now certain tips here 1.

There were 8 ques 2. Reading comprehensions do at last n read the questions first n u wud b able to directly pick answers 4m passage 3. Fill in the balnks....answer elimination process wrks best i don't remember more...but eliminating wrong answers and then guessin between the probable correct answers helps!!! one thing remember more... with plural sub. verb will not end with s as- The girls dance not The girls dances... and with sin. sub a pl verb will come as- The girl dances n max of ques contains such errors... others are of prepostions like to,at etc. Interview Experience No technical key factors they see 1.
