TCS 2007

Hey this is Dharmendra from SVITS,Indore. TCS is here for our juniors(07 batch) this
day on 31st march 2007..Today was written examination and next day means on 1st April
will be Technical and HR rounds….see how much fool r here
We as a volunteer during written exams able to collect as much questions as possible

Firstly What I observed bout pattern

30 Vocab
30-34 question in Quanta section
12 questions of LR
Total 76 questions in 1 hour 30 min

Some tips-

ENGLISH PORTION :See they hav a 10 antonym + 10 synonym +10 fill in the blanks or
passage with fill in the blanks or prepositions etc
As far as synonym and antonym is concerned they hav a large collection of words which
randomly generated in question paper in online examinations.
For a normal person it is very difficult to control vocal portion so its better to not worry
much bout this portion, I saw a even a vocab expert cannt get more than 10-12 vocal in
all, again there is no negative marking so as a normal person if we go for guess 15-20,it
will score at least 6-7 and other 10 may be known to us…….

Anyway everyone may hav another idea..,

QUANTA PORTION :Quanta question r of same pattern as in earlier yr TCS paper but
they have 5-6 questions on each patterns ,it is strictly advised that go through all quanta
questions asked in previous yr papers, u will got not even got a single unseen question.
It’s the fact, they hav exactly same questions as previously asked in 4-5 yrs.
More questions r given in below, go through them and try to observe the fact in above
statements….

LR PORTION : Barron, Barron and Barron, nothing else

GRE Barron(12th edition preferred) hav five model test papers in last of
book, TCS asks exactly same LR papers from their.
They hav bout all LRs in their bulk of question but in online examination 3 LRs from that
bulk will cum to ur PC. So strictly advised that mug up all LRs of Barron by any how.
This section plays a deciding role in written examinations, because in English everyone
stands on same level and in quanta everyone does bout all questions so this portions
became deciding factor……..
Below given the model test paper number with section + page no of Barron’s GRE (12th
edition) questions for LRs.
