The first section consist of Aptitude Test(Online) which is divided into 
Analytical and Logical Reasoning + English(Verbal)  
All are multiple choice questions with no negative marking...
It is conducted for about 20+10 minutes...It mainly covers R.S Aggarwal 
NonVerbal
and Verbal Questions..If we have gone through that then it will be easy to 
clear the test with 
in the stipulated time.....Many of them were rejected in the first 
round..On the first day itself there were 
around 2000 people...The instructions mainly helps to remember the time
for answering..Bcoz if test is about to end  in 10 minutes,background will 
change grey
and for last 2 min it will turn yellow...

I cleared the first round and the second round consist of Technical Test
There are options for us to choose C or C++ with networking or C++ with 
data structures
 or Java...You can choose the language u are comfortable with...

I chose C++ with networking  ...Those who attended the other tests can 
also please 
post their experience...It was all 20 questions including 3 programs (with 
options) 
within 30 minutes...It consists of 10 C++ and 10 Networking concepts 
questions
Any how due to my bad luck i was not able to clear that
I think the next rounds will be technical and HR interviews as usual...
Please those coming for attending sony make sure u are well prepared and 
thorough with all concepts,..They will be taking a few from a lot...

ALL THE BEST....
