CTS PLACEMENT PAPER 18th-September-2010..

Answer / rajat mahadevan

Written Test Experience

My name is Rajat Mahadevan and Im from Delhi.I have done MCA from
Management of Education and Research Institute, Delhi affiliated to Ip
university. I wanna share my experience on how the writtern test was. Hope
this helps.

OK….Mine was a morning 7:45 batch.Around 150 were there in my batch.There
were more batches on the same day so im not sure about the total number of
students who all attended that day.The paper was conducted by MERITRACK
and they said they would announce the result on this Tuesday that is on
21st September on CTS website.
When I started giving test I was really amazed, the pattern had completely
changed.There were only 50 questions in all and two sections Verbal and
Analytical.NO NEGETIVE MARKING. The paper was damn easy. This was my 12th
interview so was bit nervous asusual.I can give you an idea on how the
paper was but im sorry I can’t remember any questions.

1.) Verbal Section

There were questions like

A.)Two huge passages were given and there were 5 questions for each
passage. I would recommend you to attempt these passages at the end.

B.)Around 5-6 questions on finding which part of the sentence had an
error.EX-

He thought (a)/he might (b)/not be able (c)/to do a job (d). /
We had to find which part of the sentence had errors.

C.)Around 5-6 questions on arranging sentences in the order in which they
might have occurred.EX-

a) The third calls for high aces to channel updrafts.
b) Some paleontologists are of the opinion that the pterosaurs jumped from
s dropped from trees or perhaps rose into the light winds from the crests
of waves in order to become airborne.
c) The second hypothesis seems unlikely because large pterosaurs could not
have landed in trees without damaging their wings.
d) Each theory has its associated difficulties.
e) The first makes a wrong assumption that the pterosaurs hind feet
resembled a bat's and could serve as hooks by which the animal could hang
in preparation for flight.

OPTIONS-
1) a,e,d,b,c
2)b,d,e,c,a
3)d,a,e,c,b
4)a,b,e,d,c

D.)Around 5-6 questions on finding the wrong sentence from a set of given
sentences.

2.) Analytical Part

This part to my amazement dint have anything from RS Aggarwal quantitative
aptitude. There we not even a single formal question from percentages or
ratio proportions or ages anything u could ever imagine the whole paper
was kind of non verbal reasoning. The questions were like –

a.)Around 4-5 questions were like finding the odd figure out of given
figures. VERY VERY SIMPLE.

b.)Around 4-5 questions were like three figures were given and we had to
find the fourth one based on some pattern.(Was a bit tough)

c.)I had some login problem in my system before beginning the test, so I
was sitting idle for 15 mins in the beginning and at that time I was just
gazing at the systems of students who were giving the test.Many of them
had a question based on pie chart.A pie chart was given and 5-6 questions
were based the pie chart.

On the other hand when I started giving test I had a question based on a
table.I had to take some percentages based on the given data. I didn’t get
any questions from pie charts.

d.)Some 5-6 questions based on syllogism.EX-Some dogs are cats.All cats
are cows.

e.)Around 5-6 question were based on logic like – If it rains,then he will
dance.(These questions were in the form of data sufficiency.

This is all I can remember.Make sure you prepare from RS Aggarwal Verbal
and Non Verbal reasoning very thoroughly.Be very calm and take the paper
very carefully because it full of logical questions, you need to have a
free mind while giving the test.Im still waiting for the results that are
to be announced on 21st September on www.congnizant.com and im really very
very scared.Please do pray for me.
MOST IMPORTANT ALL THE BEST MAY GOD BE WITH YOU ALL.
HOPE THIS ARTICLE HELPS…
Take care all.
