SATYAM PAPER & INTERVIEW - 10 AUG 2006

The pattern is
1. Written test
2. Group discussion
3. Technical+HR interview

Written test has 15 questions, time 30 min, 1 correct answer carries 1 mark, 1/4 negative marking for wrong answer so we should be careful in marking. Mark only which u r confident of. I exactly solved 7 questions...and I was confident ..I got cleared the written test......so I think mostly the cut off would be around 5-7, coz my friend has ticked only 5 but she got cleared.

It contains of logical aptitude, some quant problems..easy ones. So with  right preparation u can clear it. The following r the questions which I remember.

1. The ratio of the ages of two persons three yrs ago were 3:4, and the ratio of their ages three yrs hence will be 5:4, what is the sum of their present ages.( numbers not exactly)

2. A boat travels downstream of 60 kms in 6hrs. if the speed of the stream is 3 km/hr in how many hrs can he travel 16 kms upstream(Ans 4 hrs).

3. Cost of basmati rice per kg is rs 24. another rice of 25kgs costs 36rs/kg. how many kgs of basmati rice should he mix with that of another rice so that after selling the mixture at 40rs/kg he gets a profit of 25%.

4. 1 pyramid problem
         C
      B    122
   A   35    27
2   7     10    3 

5. 1 problem on probability I think....like a boy has so coins in his pocket. He has 5penies, ets... Then when he draws two coins...the sum will be.. something like this....I did not attempt it so I don't remember.

6. There r family members A,B,C,D and E. there occupations r farmer, trader, doctor, teacher..lawyer. something like this......and statements i.e conditions were given.
That A is doctor, dauther in law of B is teacher....there is only 1 married couple etc. finally who is the trader.   ( it is ok...u can solve).
 
7. It was an argument, some 4 to 5 sentences of an argument was given.and a conclusion is made in it..so he gave 4 options and asked to tick the option which would best support the conclusion made in argument....tht was the sentence which was missing in that argument..based on it he made a conclusion. So u can make it out.

8. Even this was same like above ..an argument.... but now he asked to mark the option which strongly weakens the argument....that which does not support the conclusion or argument made in it.

9. It was a puzzle like above..similar.....that there were books of chemistry, physics, maths,, bio, social..so on...and they were kept in E and F something like this...i don't remember.
 
10. Even this was a puzzle.....abt room....like 75th door,.,80th door,,,,, 100th door..something like this It was very big. I did not solve.

11. (quant) the maximum length of rod that can fit into cuboid is 6*squareroot of(77). The length bredth and ht r in a ratio..6:5:4. find the total surface area of cuboid.(ans 5328).
