clear easily if we have practise on number series after 15 question
session gets close and next same pattern continues with change of
questions on percentages,ratios,probability ,areas.....lot practise
requires to clear this session as each question will be tricky and time
taking to solve
2.ENGLISH TEST
Its jus a 15 min test they will give one paragraph from that we need to
write an email to the client in jus 6lines .salutation is most important
in the email writing ..if we give clear saluation we can clear the round
easily . but many participants gone in this round only by doing silly
mistakes like writing as thanking you as we write in letter writing
....remember its an email writing

Covered topics on java in deep ,and asked my fav subject i said OS
..asked questions on it .what is assembly language.machine
laguage,difference between them?,what is JVM?
about my final project?
usefulness of it?
C,C++ etc.
Then there is a online aptitude test which contains only two types of
questions
i) Number series : find out the missing number..we have to identify
the pattern..it was so easy...just practice for 15-20 questions and you
will find it very simple.
ii)Quantitative: Just read all the formulaes from R S Agrawal and just
go through the solve problems..it is more than enough to crack this
section. Many examples are based upon formulaes only. Very easy.
Cracking GD:
keep in mind guys in GD,first five persons are noticeable. try to speak
in first five peoples and be specific. After your first sentence try to
spoke within next 2 minutes,the gap between two sentences should
not more than 2 minutes coz in this way u r not noticeable.
The main thing here is if all candidates are nicely spoken,they will
select complete group.My group was completely selected.
For comp/IT:
Here they ask to explain the programs. Just explain the programs
deeply...thats it.
And the final round was an HR. It was very easy and just for formality.
In this round they will give a situation and ask u how to deal with it.
They will go through your resume and ask some basic technical
questions my question was JOIN in DBMS.Just keep smiling in this
round. They are very friendly and dont worry if you stuck somewhere
just tell them that I don't no.they will give you another question.It is a
kind of general discussion.
Best of luck........!
Hi Friends....
Today IBM - Global Services came for the recruitment at NIT Calicut.
They started with announcing that cut off is 65% or 6.5 CGPA. It is a
strict rule. Even my friends who has 6.49 also not eligible. So be
