Application Procedure

Section - A : Analytical Ability : 75Q (75Marks)

1. Data Sufficiency : 20 Q (20 Marks)
A question is given followed by data in the form of two statements labelled as I and II. If the data given in I alone is sufficient to answer the question then choice (1) is the correct answer. If the data given in II alone is sufficient to answer the question the choice (2) is the correct answer. If both I and II put together are sufficient to answer the question but neither statement alone is sufficient, then choice (3) is the correct answer. If both I and II put together are not sufficient to answer the question and additional data is needed, then choice (4) is the correct answer. 2. Problem Solving 55Q (55M)
a) Sequences and Series 25Q (25M) - Analogies of numbers and alphabets, completion of blank spaces following the pattern in a:b::c:d relationship; odd thing out: missing number in a sequence or a series.
b) Data Analysis 10Q (10M) - The data given in a Table, Graph, Bar diagram, Pie Chart, Venn Diagram or a passage is to be analysed and the questions pertaining to the data are to be answered.
c) Coding and Decoding Problems 10Q (10M) - A code pattern of English Alphabet is given. A given word or a group of letters are to be coded or decoded based on the given code or codes.
d) Date, Time & Arrangement Problems 10Q (10M) - Calendar problems, Clock Problems, blood relationships, arrivals, departures and schedules: seating arrangements, symbol and notation interpretation.
