It will definitely helpful to you.

TCS has one software “touchstone” for conducting test. It is having collection of around 1 to 2 lacks questions. So pattern of all questions are much same. So please first of all understand pattern of each company.

There are total 35 questions and 80 min. But questions are consist of very useless data , so it is our job to remove all stuff and jus extract imp info for solving the problem.I am giving you some of question which I remember .1. (1/2) of a number is 3 more than the (1/6) of the same number? a) 6

The goal is to bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in the stack. Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 ≤ i ≤ 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2-move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move.If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the gold coins the third coin from the top. Then:-A) In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 0-move.B) In order to win, Alice's first move can be a 0-move or a 1-move.C) In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 1-move.D) Alice has no winning strategy.13.

Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be 15. 10 suspects are rounded by the police and questioned about a bank robbery.

Hi Friends.

I have appeared for TCS on campus on 12th January at GNIT along with other 1300 students (JIS +

Narula+ GNIT) .TCS had previously (in the month of December) given away their Demo paper to many

colleges and we were no exception. We practiced them repeatedly. On the day of the aptitude test

Page 13: Interview Related

TCS. We were very happy, we answered around 28(correct) on an avg.I personally answered 30(correct), could have answered >32 but didn’t due to the fear of uppercut

off. In general cases it remains (lower cutoff 18 & upper cutoff >32).But Eventually when results

were out.SET : 3

1. Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N=40+X+Y-Z, where X, Y

and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while

Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu

substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and

Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining

Directions for Questions 11-15: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.

The existence of mammals on the earth can be traced back to at least the Triassic time. The rate of development was retarded, till evolutional change suddenly accelerated in the oldest Paleocene. This resulted in an increase in average size, larger mental capacity, and special adaptations for different modes of life, during the Eocene time. Further improvement was seen during the Oligocene Epoch, with the appearance of some new lines and extinction of others. The Miocene and Pliocene times are especially significant as they mark the culmination of various groups and a continued approach toward modern characters. It is in the Miocene time that the mammals reached their peak with reference to variety and size.

The ability of the mammals to adapt to various modes of life finds a parallel in the reptiles of the Mesozoic time, and apart form their greater intelligence, the mammals apparently have not done much better than the corresponding reptilian forms. Undoubtedly the bat is a better flying animal than the pterosaur, but at the same time the dolphin and whale are hardly more fish like than the ichthyosaur. Quite a few of the swift-running mammals inhabiting the plains, like the horse and the antelope, must excel any of the dinosaurs. Although the tyrannosaur was a more weighty and robust carnivore than perhaps any carnivorous mammal, the lion and the tiger, by virtue of their superior brain are far more efficient and dangerous beasts of prey. It is significant to note that various species of mammals gradually adapted themselves to various kinds of lifestyles, some took to grazing on the plains and were able to run swiftly (horse, deer, bison), others started living in rivers and swamps (hippopotamus, beaver), inhabiting trees (sloth, monkey), burrowing underground (rodent, mole), feeding on flesh (tiger, wolf), swimming in the water (dolphin, whale, seal), and flying in the air (bat). Human beings on account of their superior brain have been able to harness mechanical methods to conquer the physical world and adapt to any set of conditions.

Such adaptation to different conditions leads to a gradual change in form and structure. This is a biological characteristic of the youthful, plastic stage of a group. It is seen that early in its evolutional cycle animals possess the capacity for change, but as the animal progresses in its cycle becoming old and fixed, this capacity for change disappears. The generalized types of organisms retain longest the ability to make adjustments when required, and it is from them that new, fecund stocks take origin-certainly not from any specialized end products. With reference to mammals, we see their birth, plastic spread in many directions, increased specialization, and in some cases, extinction; this is a characteristic of the evolution of life, which can be seen in the geologic record of life.

11. From the following, choose the most appropriate title for the above passage?

1. From Dinosaur to Man2. Adaptation and Extinction3. The Superior Mammals4. The Geologic Life Span5. Man, the Vanquisher of the Physical World.
