The test is conducted by mettl.

com and is divided into the following sections:

Psychometric Test

Aptitude (Quantitative/Logical)

Technical Aptitude

Design Aptitude

Coding Test

The test is of 105 minutes. There is no particular order in which you have to attempt these sections
(except psychometric test) and you can move in between different sections and even questions within
the same section. You also have an option to change your response to already answered questions.

The first section, i.e Psychometric Test is the only section to have a time limit of 10 minutes and has to
be completed before attempting any other section. It has several questions to test your personality and
they ask the the same question more than once in a tricky way. So be careful, because if you end up
giving different answers to the same question, your likelihood of getting through may decrease
drastically. A short example may be that they may ask you if you believe in hard work, followed by
asking if you believe in smart work. If you answer yes to both these questions, you may get screwed.

The aptitude part does not focus on normal questions that you find in quantitative aptitude books such
as time and work, number system, etc. (or at least it did not focus on such problems when I appeared
for my test a month ago). It rather gives general questions that have a logical approach to them. You
may consider that Logical Reasoning dominates the basic aptitude test and there are little to no
quantitative aptitude questions. Focus on seating arrangement, coding decoding, etc.

In my test, there were 6 questions in the technical aptitude section. The first five questions were
objective questions on SDLC, and the sixth question had a code which we were supposed to debug. We
had the option to view the code in the language of our choice. The languages in which we could view the
code to be debugged were C, C++, C# and Java. Although my test focused on SDLC, my friends from
other colleges told me that they had simple C programming questions and DBMS questions. So be
prepared with basic programming skills and DBMS as well. You may also go through OS and Computer
Networks as they may put a few questions from these subjects as well.

Design Aptitude was pretty simple. They may give you an image and ask questions on it, such as what
special symbol do you see in the logo of this company.

Answer is an arrow in between E and x. (I had this question as a part of my test.) Also, they may ask
questions like how many different human faces do you see in a given picture, etc.

Next is the coding round which has got 2 questions. These questions can be attempted in C, C++, C# or
Java. No other language choice is given. My first question was to find the gcd of a small integer such as
10 and a large integer (which could have maximum 256 digits). The small integer was passed to the
function as an integer type only, but the large integer was stored as a string. We were supposed to
complete the definition of two functions given to us. I'm writing the prototype of both these functions.

int modulous(int p, char *s)

//returns the remainder of s with p

int gcd(int t, int p)

//returns the gcd of t and p

main()

rem = modulous(a, b); //b is the large integer

gcd(rem, b);

The other question was a bit long and I'm being a bit lazy to type it. I hope the first question will give you
a feel of the test. :-P

Good luck with the test. :

Pattern of Written Exam:

Section No. of Questions Time Limit

Psychometric Test 60 10 min

Coding Test 2 programs }95 Min

English Essay 1

Aptitude(General, Analytical, Design) 23

Verbal 12

Technical Section 10

Total 108 105 mins

The total time allotted to the written exam is 1 hour 45 minutes. There is no negative marking in the
paper.

Quantitative Ability consists of questions from the topics such as Circles and Triangles, Pipes and
Cisterns, Probability, Time & Work and Time, Speed & Distance.

Logical Reasoning consists of questions covering the topics of Blood Relation, Direction, Coding and
Decoding etc.

Verbal Ability section consists of short reading comprehension passages. This section also consists of
basic grammar usage questions like fill in the blanks, synonyms, antonyms, paragraph completion,
sentence correction, vocabulary, sentence ordering. Also, there is one more section which includes
essay (250 words) writing.

Technical section consists of questions mostly from C, DBMS and error detection in programs.

Coding Section consists of a question on Real Time Programming.

Overall the level of the paper is easy to moderate. Only those candidates who clear the written exam
will qualify for the next round.
