Directions for Questions 1-5: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the
basis of the information provided in the passage.
It all started at the beginning of fifth grade. At first, Carmen wasn’t really sure what was
happening. In class, she had to squint to see the blackboard clearly. She had to do the same
thing when she read street signs, or when she watched a movie. As the fuzziness got worse,
she became more and more worried. It was important for her to see the notes and
homework assignments the teacher put on the board.
It wasn’t long before Carmen found herself squinting all the time, but she didn’t want anyone
to know that she was having a problem seeing. In class, she asked for a desk that was closer
to the blackboard. One day, her teacher said, "Carmen, are you all right? I’ve noticed you
squinting a lot. Are you having trouble seeing the board?"
Carmen shook her head. "I’m fine, Mrs. Cruz," she said, but she knew she couldn’t pretend
much longer.
At home, she had to sit closer and closer to the television in order to see the picture.
Her mother noticed her squinting as she watched her favorite shows, and she began to get
suspicious.
"Tomorrow I’m calling the eye doctor to set up an appointment for you," she said firmly.
Carmen protested, but her mother’s mind was made up.
Three days later, Carmen had new glasses and instructions from her doctor to wear them all
the time. Carmen frowned in the car the whole way home. "All of the kids at school will think
I’m a nerd," she said. Her mother smiled and shook her head. "You look just as beautiful with
those glasses on as you do without them," she said. But Carmen didn’t believe her. The next
day, Carmen kept the glasses in her pocket as she walked into the schoolyard. She avoided
her friends and stood alone, feeling miserable. Suddenly, she heard her friend Theresa
shout. Carmen ran over to the other girls. "What’s wrong?" she asked. "My silver ring is
gone!" Theresa cried. "My sister sent it to me from California. It’s very special and I can’t
lose it!"
Carmen could tell that Theresa was very upset. They all looked for the ring in the grassy area
of the playground.
Carmen realized that she could search better if she could see better. She took the glasses
out of her pocket and put them on. The objects and people around her came into sharp
focus. She caught her breath. Everything looked so different! So clear! She looked down at
the ground and a glimmer of silver caught her eye. It was the ring. "Here it is," she shouted.
"I’ve found it!" She handed it to Theresa, and Theresa slipped the ring back on her finger.
"Thanks Carmen," she said. "I never thought we'd find it." She paused. "Hey, I didn’t know
you wore glasses. They look great!" Carmen had forgotten that she was wearing the new
glasses. "Thanks," she replied shyly. As they walked back toward the school building, two
more girls from her class complimented her glasses. Carmen smiled. "Maybe wearing glasses
won’t be so bad after all," she thought.
Ans: B
2. Based on the end of the story, what do you think Carmen will do next?

Directions for Questions 6-10: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on
the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Primitive man was probably more concerned with fire as a source of warmth and as a means
of cooking food than as a source of light. Before he discovered less laborious ways of making
fire, he had to preserve it, and whenever he went on a journey he carried a firebrand with
him. His discovery that the firebrand, from which the torch may very well have developed,
could be used for illumination was probably incidental to the primary purpose of preserving a
flame.
Lamps, too, probably developed by accident. Early man may have had his first conception of
a lamp while watching a twig or fibre burning in the molten fat dropped from a roasting
carcass. All he had to do was to fashion a vessel to contain fat and float a lighted reed in it.
Such lamps, which are made of hollowed stones or sea shells, have persisted in identical
from up to quite recent times.

Directions for Questions 1-5: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on
the basis of the information provided in the passage
A snow leopard roars in the high mountains of Asia. A black rhinoceros gallops across the
plains of Africa. A grizzly bear hunts for fish in a North American river. A mother blue
whale and her calf glide through the deep waters of the ocean.
All of these animals share the Earth with us. They fascinate us with their beauty, their grace,
and their speed. We love observing their behavior, and learning more about their habits. But
just loving them is not enough. All of these animals are endangered. Many of them have
died, and without special care, they may someday disappear from the Earth.
Why is it important to care for animals like these? One reason is to protect the balance of
life on Earth. Another reason is the beauty of the animals themselves. Each species of animal
is special. Once it is gone, it is gone forever.
Africa was once filled with an abundance of wild animals. But that is changing fast. One of
these animals, the black rhinoceros, lives on the plains of Africa. It has very poor eyesight
and a very bad temper! Even though the black rhino is powerful, and can be dangerous, its
strength can’t always help it to escape hunters. Some people think that the rhino’s horn has
magical powers, and many hunters kill rhinos for their valuable horns. This has caused the
black rhino to be placed on the endangered species list.
The elephant seems to represent all that is strong and wild in Africa. It once had no natural
enemies, but is now endangered—killed for its ivory tusks.
The fastest land animal, the cheetah, also lives in Africa. It, too, is becoming extinct as
people take over more and more of the land that is the cheetah's natural habitat.
Imagine Africa without the powerful rhino, the gentle, intelligent elephant, or the lightning
quick cheetah. Once they are gone, they are gone forever.
Wherever people are careless about the land, there are endangered species.
Grizzly bears like to wander great distances. Each bears needs up to 1,500 square miles of
territory to call its homeland. Today, because forests have been cleared to make room for
people, the grizzly’s habitat is shrinking and the grizzly is disappearing. It joins other
endangered North American animals, such as the red wolf and the American crocodile.
In South America, destruction of the rain forest threatens many animals. Unusual mammals,
such as the howler monkey and the three-toed sloth, are endangered. Beautiful birds like the
great green macaw and the golden parakeet are also becoming extinct. They’re losing their
homes in the rain forest, and thousands die when they are caught and shipped off to be sold
as exotic pets.
The giant panda of Asia is a fascinating and unique animal. Yet there are only about 1,000
still living in the wild. The giant panda’s diet consists mainly of the bamboo plant, so when
the bamboo forests die, so does the panda. China is now making an effort to protect these
special creatures from becoming extinct.
Asia’s big cats are also in trouble. The exotic snow leopard lives high in the mountains. Even
there, it faces the loss of its natural habitat, and hunters who kill it for its fur. The tiger, the
largest of all the big cats, is hunted merely for sport.
Ocean-dwelling animals are in danger of extinction as well. The blue whale is the largest
animal in the world. It weighs up to 390,000 pounds. Whale hunting and pollution are this
species’ greatest enemies.
Unfortunately, it is people who cause many of the problems that animals face. We alter and
pollute their habitats. We hunt them for skins, tusks, furs, and horns. We destroy animals
that get in the way of farming or building. And we remove them from their natural habitats
and take them home as pets.
What can you do to help endangered animals? Learn as much as you can about them. The
more you know, the more you can help. Make an effort to support zoos and wildlife groups.
Many zoos breed endangered animals, helping to ensure that they will continue to live on.
Contribute to groups, such as the National Wildlife Federation and the Sierra Club, that work
hard to protect animals. You can also be a smart shopper and never buy a pet that has been
raised in the wilderness.
The world is made up of many living things, and each thing is dependent on the others to
survive. If we allow even one species on Earth to become extinct, it has an impact on other
living things and changes our world. When we mention any endangered wild animals, let’s
hope that we never again have to say, "Gone forever."
Ans: B

The last half of my life has been lived in one of those painful epochs of human history during
which the world is getting worse, and past victories which had seemed to be definitive have
turned out to be only temporary. When I was young, Victorian optimism was taken for
granted. It was thought that freedom and prosperity would speed gradually throughout the
world by an orderly process, and it was hoped that cruelty, tyranny, and injustice would
continually diminish. Hardly anyone was haunted by the fear of great wars. Hardly anyone
thought of thenineteenth century as a brief interlude between past and future barbarism.

Passage II
The smaller pesticide formulation units in India operate under heavy constraints such as
obsolete technology, small scale of operation and dependence on large units for raw
materials. In view of the loss of expensive material by the smaller units it is important to
either eliminate or reduce losses to the extent possible through innovative and sustainable
waste minimization techniques. Operating profit margins of the units are very low and small
adverse conditions land these companies in trouble. Maximum losses suffered by these
units are through poor house keeping, Sub- optional operating practices, and lack of proper
opportunities for recycling waste.

Directions for Questions 1-5: Read the passage and answer the questions that
follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Much of the information we have today about chimpanzees comes from the
groundbreaking, long-term research of the great conservationist, Jane Goodall.
As a young woman, Jane finished school in London, attended secretarial school, and
then worked for a documentary filmmaker for a while. When a school friend invited
her to visit Kenya, she worked as a waitress until she had earned the fare to travel
there by boat. She was 23 years old.
Once in Kenya, she met Dr. Louis Leakey, a famous paleontologist and
anthropologist. He was impressed with her thorough knowledge of Africa and its
wildlife, and hired her to assist him and his wife on a fossil-hunting expedition to
Olduvai Gorge. Dr. Leakey soon realized that Jane was the perfect person to
complete a study he had been planning for some time. She expressed her interest
in the idea of studying animals by living in the wild with them, rather than studying
dead animals through paleontology.
Dr. Leakey and Jane began planning a study of a group of chimpanzees who were
living on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Kenya. At first, the British authorities
would not approve their plan. At the time, they thought it was too dangerous for a
woman to live in the wilds of Africa alone. But Jane’s mother, Vanne, agreed to join
her so that she would not be alone. Finally, the authorities gave Jane the clearance
she needed in order to go to Africa and begin her study
In July of 1960, Jane and her mother arrived at Gombe National Park in what was
then called Tanganyika and is now called Tanzania. Jane faced many challenges as
she began her work. The chimpanzees did not accept her right away, and it took
months for them to get used to her presence in their territory. But she was very
patient and remained focused on her goal. Little by little, she was able to enter
their world.
At first, she was able to watch the chimpanzees only from a great distance, using
binoculars. As time passed, she was able to move her observation point closer to
them while still using camouflage. Eventually, she was able to sit among them,
touching, patting, and even feeding them. It was an amazing accomplishment for
Jane, and a breakthrough in the study of animals in the wild. Jane named all of the
chimpanzees that she studied; stating in her journals that she felt they each had a
unique personality.
One of the first significant observations that Jane made during the study was that
chimpanzees make and use tools, much like humans do, to help them get food. It
was previously thought that humans alone used tools. Also thanks to Jane’s
research, we now know that chimps eat meat as well as plants and fruits. In many
ways, she has helped us to see how chimpanzees and humans are similar. In doing
so, she has made us more sympathetic toward these creatures, while helping us to
better understand ourselves.
The study started by Jane Goodall in 1960 is now the longest field study of any
animal species in their natural habitat. Research continues to this day in Gombe
and is conducted by a team of trained Tanzanians.
Jane’s life has included much more than just her study of the chimps in Tanzania.
She pursued a graduate degree while still conducting her study, receiving her Ph.D.
from Cambridge University in 1965. In 1984, she received the J. Paul Getty Wildlife
Conservation Prize for "helping millions of people understand the importance of
wildlife conservation to life on this planet." She has been married twice: first to a
photographer and then to the director of National Parks. She has one son.
Dr. Jane Goodall is now the world’s most renowned authority on chimpanzees,
having studied their behavior for nearly 40 years. She has published many scientific
articles, has written two books, and has won numerous awards for her
groundbreaking work. The Jane Goodall Institute for Wildlife Research, Education,
and Conservation was founded in 1977 in California but moved to
the Washington,D.C., area in 1998. Its goal is to take the actions necessary to
improve the environment for all living things.
Dr. Goodall now travels extensively, giving lectures, visiting zoos and chimp
sanctuaries, and talking to young people involved in environmental education. She
is truly a great conservationist and an amazing human being.

Directions for Questions 6-10: Read the passage and answer the questions that
follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
There are some men who seem to be always on the lookout for trouble and, to tell
the truth, they are seldom disappointed. Listening to such men one would think
that this world is one of the stormiest and most disagreeable places. Yet, after all it
is not such a bad place and the difficulty is often in the man who is too thin-
skinned. On the other hand, the man who goes out expecting people to be like
himself, kind and brotherly, will be surprised at the kindness he meets even in the
most unlike quarters. A smile is apt to be met met with a respective smile while
the sneer is just as apt to provoke a snarl. Men living in the same neighborhood
may live vastly different lives. But it is not the neighborhood which is quarrelsome,
but the man within us. And we have it in out power to change our neighborhood

obediently. Do not be in a hurry to answer the questions. They may complement
your answers if they wish.
First interview:

Then she asked me to sit. She asked general questions at the first like about our
family, and my high school etc. Then she asked me to explain my plus points with
example. I wrote that I had organized a college day function, so she asked me how
I organized the program. She expected very detailed answer from me. I tried to the
maximum extent. She then told me how to organize clearly and she added more
points to my view. So many questions were asked on teamwork and leadership.
Second interview:
After Completing the first interview one interviewer told me “ Balakrishna, we are
very sorry, Please wait for some time outside, we may call you again. ” Second
person Is a gent. He has more concentrated on eye to eye contact. He started with
the question “What questions did madam asked you?”. I told a few questions. He
was noting down some thing on the paper while I was answering. He too asked how
can I organize a quiz program in which we have to invite two other colleges. I tried
my level best.
Final two questions are:
Hr: What will you do if I won’t hire you?
Me: I will improve my skills and I will attend all I opportunities as my aim is to
become a software engineer.
Result:
I was too much tensed because in second interview at the last sir asked “If u are

asking God for his grace and help.

they announced.
All the sheets were passing out and I was hungry to listen my name. Then the

I hope my experience in the aptitude and HR round might help you all in some way.
Students from many engineering colleges in West Bengal attended this campussing. The
venue was Heritage institute of technology and the whole process took place through 2 days
(11th and 12th September).
As most of you know, Infosys has two different sections in their aptitude test
1) One was the Reasoning aptitude test(30 questions which included data interpretation,
logical reasoning, pictorial puzzles, basic derivative mathematical problems)
2) Another part was the Verbal aptitude test(40 questions which included 2 long passages,
sentence correction, fill in the blanks with appropriate words, replace a part of a sentence
with the correct verbal phrase)
No negative marking in either of the sections, but I am not sure whether there are sectional
cut-offs. So be sure to attempt all the questions in both sections, don’t dawdle with one
question if you don’t know it. Be sure to pass one to the next one, remember in such little
time utilizing every minute is very very important. Even 1 correct or 1 wrong answer could
make the difference.
It is a very thin line that might help you to nail the job or get yourself nailed.
Total students appeared Approx 2000
Shortlisted for HR 390
This Aptitude rounds are the ones where a staggering 1600 students got eliminated, which in
this case amounts to 80% of the strength
My interview was a 1:1 panel. Trust me when I tell you that Infosys HRs are very frank and
cool.
I entered the room after asking for permission (always ask for permission before you step in)
Me: may I come in sir
HR: yes, please come in
The HR was sitting in his chair, so I reached out spontaneously for a handshake and greeted
him a very good morning. He looked up to me and extended his hand very pleasingly and
smiled and replied good morning. Many say that you shouldn’t extend your hand first for the
handshake if the HR doesn’t. But many think that’s rubbish and i too share the same opinion.
Shaking the hand is a way of showing courtesy and greeting the person. It also shows that
you are not nervous and you are confident, so it helps in creating a good positive impression
about you in the HR’s mind even before the interview has begun. A good firm (not bone-
crushing) handshake acts like a pleasant stimulator.

Hi Friends,
I'm Roja from Vasavi College of Engineering, Hyderabad. Recently Infosys visited
our campus on Jan 17th. First we have a test at 10 a.m. It went on for 70 min.
Then have pre-placement talk by them.
The test pattern is like. It includes 2 sections.
First the aptitude and then the verbal section.
The Aptitude paper includes
1. (1-5) questions a puzzle is given. It goes on like, A, B, C, D, E, F bought a bike
each on each of the days from Monday to Saturday, no two buy the bike on same
day and some 6 conditions are given. Sorry I don't remember all those but if you
follow that conditions you can easily solve it. I suggest you to do Puzzle test
exercise from Verbal & Non Verbal Reasoning by R.S. Aggarwal.
2. (6-10) questions. Finding the odd figure out. These are so easy. Just follow
R.S.Aggarwal same book.
3. (11-15) questions. Problems based on Data sufficiency. These are also from the
same book mentioned above.
4. (16-20) questions. Data interpretation. A table of values are given and
accordingly the questions are given. For this, follow Quantitative Aptitude by R.S.
Aggarwal
5. (21-25) questions Again a puzzle is given. Similar to the first one.
6. (26-30) questions Syllogisms for this follow R.S. Aggarwal Verbal and non-verbal
Reasoning. Logic do 1B exercise in that unit.
The Verbal Section includes
1. Two big RCs, and 10 questions are given on that. I suggest you to do them at
last. First read the questions and see the passage, then it will be easy.
2. Then sentence completion questions.
3. Theme detection.
4. Deriving Conclusion from passages.
In our college 209 out of 362 are selected for written and we have HR.
MY HR Interview:
Me: May i come in ma'am?
Hr: Yes come Roja. Take your seat ( gave handshake )
Me: Thank you ma'am.
Hr: You should i hire you in my company?
Me: Blah..Blah..Blah..
Hr: Tell me about your mini project?
Me: Said.
Hr: Tell me about your main project?
Me: Said.
Hr: What are your extra curricular activities??
Me: Said.
Hr: Did u organize any events in your college?
Me: Said.
Hr: What is your goal?
Me: Said.
Hr: (asked about my paper presentation in my resume)
Hr: Ok Roja, any questions??
Me: No ma'am.
Hr: OK all the best( And again a handshake)
Me: Thanks ma'am.
Then they wanted to give the result along with Wipro. I was tensed for about 15
days. Finally they gave the result on Jan 31st, 2010. 174 out of 209 was taken.
Luckily, i was one of them.
Thanks to Freshersworld.
I wish you all the Best.
Be prepared to become an Infoscian.
Good Luck.

Hi Friends,
I am Deepak Ojha from svits, Indore. There was a campus drive by Infosys in our
college campus on 22nd Jan 2010. Their eligibility criteria is 60% for class 10th and
12th,65% for B.E. (Guys beware it is avg. marks not the aggregate) and they are
very much strict about their criteria, even 64.99 % is not allowed. About 180
eligible students appeared for the written test of infosys.
And friends good news that i'm the one of lucky one to get chance to take training
from Mysore training center, the largest corporate university in the world.
Statistic:
Total Students: 180
Students who cleared Aptitude Test: 71(Be careful huge reduction in this section)
Students Select in interview: 55(I am one of them)
Some key points:
1. If you clear the written, there are 90% chances of selection.
2. Always reply in interview with full confidence and preferably by taking an
example.
Selection Procedure:
Infosys is such a company where there is no barrier in stream. That means
students from any stream can sit in Infosys. There are no direct Technical round in
Infosys.
The whole Selection Process contains two section aptitude test.
Analytical & Logical reasoning i.e. aptitude test:(30 questions: 40 minutes)
English/verbal section: (40 questions: 35 minutes)
Friends they will not tell about any sectional cut off be careful about section cutoff,
but I think that there might be a sectional cutoff, so do well in both sections to
ensure your selection. After Aptitude test HR interview.
Study Materials for aptitude test:
Verbal & Non verbal R.S. Agarwal, Quantitative aptitude R.S. Aggarwal.
Some Time’s/PT's CAT study materials. And ofcourse last but not least
Freshersworld (Be Regular & update with this site, You will get really very help)
Analytical & Logical reasoning:
Friends the order of questions are as follows(There is no negative marking)
Questions 1-5 are based on ranks. They are very much easy and can be solved
within 5 minutes.
Questions 6-10 on choose the odd man out from the figure series (some are easy
some are moderate)
Questions 11-15 based on normal mathematics. (I do not remember them properly)
Questions 16-20 based on pie chart, a very easy one
Questions 21-25 based on a puzzle. Puzzle is like that "there are 5 persons in the
family a, b, c, d, e and they are Farmer, Doctor, Trader, Lawyer, Engineer and we
have to find the correct match for each a, b, c, d, e based on some more info
given".
Questions 26-30 based on syllogisms.
English/verbal Section:
Friends do this section with a very cool mind because time given for this is less.
Two passages and 5 question from each passages: Do it at the last and before
reading the passage see the question one time.
Sentence Correction: Be care about tense mistake, spelling mistake, using of
pronoun.
Fill in the Blanks: Gain a details idea on preposition, phrase, idioms.
Theme Detection.
Identification of some supporting or weakening sentences about a paragraph given
HR Interview
Now the final section. The only one solution to crack the interview is keeping
yourself cool. Friends believe me the Infosys HR panel are the coolest person in the
world (At least for my panel). And always think that they are taking your Interview
to select you, not to reject you. Be friendly, polite with them and follow the proper
etiquettes.
My HR panel consists of one person. He is of around 55-60 years of age. He is too
good and very friendly.
Interview
Me: May I come in sir?
HR: Yes, please come in, have a seat.
Then he stood up and shake hands with me.
Me: Thank you sir.
HR: Ok tell me something about your routine work?
Me: I told
HR: How you prepare for your exams. Tell me the whole process by taking an
example.
Me: I told
HR: Do you have given any paper presentation?
Me: Told with the example of instance when i gave the seminar?
HR: Are you a good leader?
Me: Yes, I am and explain this by taking the examples of my projects and
difficulties encountered in that and how i overcome that and accomplish the project
successfully.
HR: Ok, Deepak do you read books?
Me: Yes sir, and told the name of books that i read and how they benefited me.
HR: Then he asked me about my family and just a casual talk after that.
HR: Ok, Deepak nice to talk you.
At last, he stood up and shook hands with me.
then i gently stood up and say.
Me: Thank you sir and have a nice day
My interview was good and i'm quite sure that, i'm through and got selected in my
dream company. It was like a dream comes true.
Ok, my friends so this is my story that how i cracked the infosys. Meet you at
Mysore.
Good bye and Have Good Luck.

This Infosys Paper is viewed by 6221 times
This is Rahul Kumar from FET, GKV and I was selected by Infosys on 7th Jan 2010,
through pool campus recruitment conducted in COER, Roorkee.
The whole procedure was as follows:
1) Pre-Placement talk
2) Written test (Analytical thinking and logical Reasoning + Verbal ability test
(English))
3) Interview
1) Pre-Placement talk: Do listen to it carefully friends because it helps you to know
what kind of ppl. Infosys is looking for and helps you to prepare better for
interview.
2) Written test comprised of 2 pprs.
i) Reasoning section: It comprised of 30 questions in 40 mins. Containing 2
puzzles with 5 questions each. 5 figurative series questions, 5 questions from data
sufficiency, 5 questions from the. In Syllogism each. (These two saved me). Try to
score as high as you can as question is really easy and sectional cut off matters.
Just go with the basic study material of any MBA preparation coaching. (I opted for
Time's) Thats more than enough or either go with R.S. Aggarwal (Verbal and non-
Verbal reasoning) pay more stress on verbal reasoning and for the. I just have a
look at R.S. Aggarwal Quantitative book. Thats it.
ii) English section: 40 questions in 35 mins and you might feel time is less but
believe me its not. It consisted of 2 big RC's (Attempt dem at last as its time
taking) with 5 questions each, fill in the blanks, sentence correction, questions on
replacing the phrases with suitable meaning and theme detection small questions
read dem once and you will find the answer. For RC's better read the questions first
and then start reading the passage. Once you come across ne of the answer mark it
in your answer sheet sometimes you don't have to read the whole passage and it
saves time. For grammar go for basic grammar book (have a look at Tenses,
Prepositions, Articles etc.) or again go for basic Time's study material.
3) Interview: HRs in infosys are really cool and they make you relax once you
enter the interview room. No puzzle was asked to me in my interview. Mine was a
ladies HR and she was really a very cool lady. Just a few Questions based on my
resume but nothing technical(no need 2 worry). Until you mention project you just
need to backup your strengths written in your resume with examples don't lie or try
to dominate them they are smart enough just be cool and be confident and
maintain your smile basically they will check your communication skills and your
confidence. My interview lasted for almost 20 mins. And Finally results were
announced at 1 a.m in the morning 3 hours after the interview and BINGO. I was
one among the 22 lucky students selected from our college. Best of luck guys and I
hope you find my experience helpful. Don't forget to take help from your seniors it
really helps you a lot in preparation.
Thanks for reading.

This post is for those who are interested in joining Infosys. As you all know that you
have to go through 2 stages to get recruited in Infosys.
1) Written test (this is the main stage to clear as 80-90% are washed out in this
round only), it consists of 2 section.
a) Reasoning
b) English
2) PI
I don't remember the questions but yes I can help all by suggesting some points to
clear the process.
a) The written test is not so tough as it is told by everyone before giving the test.
Whoever tells you that written is very tough he/she is trying to be over smart as
they either have cleared it or failed to clear.
b) You just have to prepare well logical reasoning, puzzles, completing the series of
pictures,and some basic mathematical operations. This you can do from R.S.
Aggarwal or any of the CAT coaching materials.
c) For the English test prepare correction of sentences, preposition, putting the
right words as fill in the blanks, spotting errors, and RC's. Please attempt the RC's
at the last if you get time and read the questions 1st and then try to find the
answers. Prepare the English from any basic book and those from English medium
don't worry for this section.
a) Your CV will be scanned so be ready to answer any questions from any where.
b) They are going to play with you so don't lose your temper and have smile always
be confident in answering.
c) No need to tell them if you have an offer letter from other organizations and if
you want to tell,tell them on your own risk.
d) They even say I'll through you out. Say sorry and answer the questions.
Rest All is well
Best of luck!

I had applied for Infosys on August 10 and got call letter on 18 November 2010. My
test was on 28 November 2010. Selection procedure contains only written and HR.
In written they asked mainly reasoning & English. So prepare well from R.S
Aggarwal verbal and non verbal reasoning. Reasoning questions were like
3. 1 table- 5 questions
4. 5 syllogisms
5. 5 data sufficiency
English was quite easy any average person with little practice can do.
English contained:
1. 2 passage: 1 was very easy and other was little bit tougher.
2. Fill the blanks: 5 questions
3. Most suitable conclusion from the above given passage: 5 questions
Result was announced on the same day and for interview they called next day.
Prepare well project details for interview, they ask many times. For me it was full
technical and asked about my projects only.
It depends on your luck that what kind of HR you get. They announced that
interview result will be send to e-mail id after 2-4 weeks. Lets see what happens.

Hello Friends,
This is Rohan Kaushik From Svits Indore infosys visited our college today i.e 22-01-
2010. Firstly the process started with a presentation about infosys, its values, its
growth and things that make you say "Boss this is the Company I always wanted to
be in"
After the presentation we started with the Written Test.
It as per its regular pattern had 2 sections
1) Logical 30 questions, 40 min
2) Verbal 40 questions, 35 min
Logical was very easy and one could finish it before time.
Verbal was a bit on a tougher side as the passages were lengthy.
Time management here plays an important part. The infosys people came out with
the short list in 2 hours.
162 appeared in the written examination out of which 71 got through the initial
phase. Then after the short list. They immediately started with HR interview. I was
called.
Interivewer: So Rohan have your seat.

Interviewer: What is your mother occupation?
ME: Told
Interviewer: Since they both are from chemistry i will ask a question on that.
ME: Sir, I'm not that good in that. But still i will give it a try.
Interviewer: Ok there is a drop of water on the table. How will you test that the
drop is water only.
ME: Told but the answer was not satisfactory. He asked me to ask the answer from
my parents.
Interviewer: Then he gave me 2 puzzles and both were from previous interview
given in this site
ME: Answered both.
Then he asked me about major and minor project undertaken.
I answered them confidently. Last he asked about my brother and told
"That will do Rohan Kaushik".
I said thanks and left the room.
I am satisfied by the performance i gave. Let's see what happens final results would
come on 31st of this month.
Give your best shot and do pray for me that i make it in Infosys.

Infosys is one of the coolest companies which come to ur college....... The question
paper for apti is very easy and u have only one more HR round after u ve cleared in
aptitude round. So if u ve cleared apti u are 90% placed.. Out of some 200 who wrote
apti 122 got selected and after HR 107 were selected from our college.
1: Logical reasoning.. It was very simple. There wer 30 qns and 40 min.
I. I have a 9 digit ATM number which consists of the numbers 1-9 not particulary in that
order say PQRSTUVWX. The num is divisble by 9. If u delete de 9th digit de 8-digit
num s divisible by 8. if u delete 8th num, the remaining num is divisble by 7 and so on..
It seems 2 be difficult but its easy. Jus check de 4th qn.. In de options if de last number
of de option is 5 dat is de answer.. nd in the 5th qn de 1st number should be 5.. There is
only one option with that number.. The 1st and 2nd sub questions are general in this
question..
II.6-10
It was pictures sequences.. A bit confusing.. Be careful with the answers...
III. 11-15
It was data interpretation general topics basically from R.S. Agarwal
IV. 16-20
One main question wih blanks. It was very simple. U jus had to add diff numbers to fill
in the balnks.. basic addition..
V. 21-25
Puzzle type qn. A speaks Urdu and Marathi. B speaks Marathi and Bengali.. and many
more ppl.. 5 questions followed it which were damn easy..
VI. 26-30
In each question 6 sentences were given. We have 2 find out which sentences have a
relation BCF DEF like dat.. Its easy if u see de options and do it...
2. Verbal..
This was also easy but time consuming.. U have 2 be real fast in reading passages..
better do passages in de last.. 40 questions 35 min They ll give 2 passages.. Big ones
and 5 questions following dat..
Der are fill in the blanks and correction of false statements and many more.. Verbal will
be very easy if u r fluent in english but be very fats in reading..
No need to worry bout HR round.. They r very cool and jovial...... My experience was
really good and I was selected

Hi friends, I am Piyush Gaur from JIIT Noida. INFOSYS came to our campus on 12th
and 13th of March. Three colleges participated namely JIIT Noida, JUIT
Waknaghat(Solan) and JIET Guna.
Guys I think most of you must be knowing what Infosys and who all eligible (infact
everybranch is eligible, one just have to clear that % criteria).
Eligibility Criteria - 60% X 60% XII and 60% in all previous semesters. (For B.Tech
only,MCA and M.Tech students do consult your TPO)
Now before the written test there was a presentation in that we were told that try getting
atleast 20 correct in both Analytical & Logical Reasoning section as well as Verbal
section. There is no funda like upper cut off and no negative marking so attempt all the
questions.
At that time only the person told us that they are expecting around 500 selections so that
was something which really gave us confidence.
Now this is the conclusion part it is very important always ask aleast a question. I asked
two and he became very frank while answering them. Guys this the complete story of
Infosys from my side. After clearing the written one thing is sure that u r 90% selected
10% depends on interview just dont spoil it. Answer questions nicely and avoid
answering in only Yes or NO.

Hello friends, This is Himansu here, from Orissa Engineering College, Bhubaneswar.
Infy visited our college campus on 18th march, for recruitment. The schedule was cut-
out and pretty much timebound.
The PPT started right at 9.30am, when 2 delegates came n started off with their
presentations and provided information and life, work and processes at Infosys and its
requirements. Jot the points down, if you feel it necessary.
Right after that, the students proceeded to assigned rooms for written round. Initially,
they give a form - which you need to supervise carefully and fill in the details without
much manipulation. But dont worry, they will guide you about that in the PPT itself.
Right after that, written round started. It was the very same pattern , timing and kind of
questions - which by now, you are expected to know. After the written part was over,
the results were declared after 1.5 hr. Out of the 270 odd appeared, 43 cleared the
written part.
After few minutes, the 43 guyz were to proceed to interview arena. And there were 6
panels, all set for interviewing the candidates.
The HR people of Infy are normally highly experienced and seasoned. So kindly don't
exaggerate your resume, information or over-burden your folder with unnecessary
certificates (for example, 2nd prize in debate, 1st prize in painting) - is what I feel.
Because normally they don't go beyond your resume and scoresheet.
However, the most important aspect is how and what you write in your resume. Be very
clear and know your CV. They can trap you wonderfully , if you are not well read on
that aspect.
I was asked about my academic gap, hobbies ( asked hell a lot out of it ), long term
goals, how to organize a competition, a small puzzle and many other questions. They
may also ask technical questions (yes, be prepared anyway).
Little bit of nervousness is absolutely normal. Just keep yourself collected, b clear n
proper in diction, b cheerful and hope for the best.
Some say, believing in God and all is very important. That is very true.But prior to
everything, You got to believe Yourself completely.
Do your best, n hope sab thik ho. From our interview process, 38 out of 42 were
selected. I have seen very great contenders and my best friend being left out, out of
sheer bad luck in their part.
Pray your fellow God, seek some luck and just do well.

Hi,friends this is rajdeep banerjee from netaji subhash engineering college,kolkata. here
am going to describe my experience in INFOSYS CAMPUS RECRUITMENT DRIVE
that was held on 22nd of feb 2008...n i was one of the lucky ones to get selected...
any way first of all friends i wud like to say that don't be tensed about infosys ..bcoz i
personaly think that there on-campus recruitment procedure is easier than that of other
companies...
Our aptitude test was held in Rajarhat technoindia college...we arrived there at 8 a.m
from 9-15 the p.p.t(pre-placement talk)started..the person from infosys conducting the
ppt was very jolly n smart ..he told us abt infy..its projects n all ...he also asked everyone
to say the logo color of infy ..n told us that wh'wud give the right answer wud definitely
get worth Rs.500...
when my turn came..i was absolutely tensed.. really my palms were sweating n my heart
beat was growing fast...then i entered. .n here is the conversation....
that was all at last she sighned me a paper n thanked me..i replied my thanks...don't
shake ur hand..unless the interviewer shakes..anyway fortunately i was not asked
puzzles...bt friends my advice is to get ready 4 the puzzles..those cud be asked any
time...
then after 2 hrs of waiting our name was declared..n i was one of the lucky ones ...frm
our stream(cse)10 were selected... that's all over..absolutely i was very happy....
that's it..my friends getting infy is not the toughest job...u have to believe urself...try to
focus on what u r saying..n be positive ..don't show over-smartness ....best of luck to all
of the future INFOSCIONS.....

Hello People!! first of all ....all the very best for ur Infy Exam.... Infy is my dream
company ...n its the fourth company i have cracked after Satyam, TCS, and
Accenture...feels like heaven!!!!!!!! anyways people who still dnt have a job...don't
worry infy won't leave u disappointed..'coz it took a lot of people from my college
about 200 people appeared for the test
about 132 got shortlisted for the interview...
and 115 got selected.....
huge number isn't it????
Written Exam
Carry ur marksheets they need ur xact marks of coll, X n XII n they verify those so be
careful ur CV also has the consistent data
Analytical Section
30 ques 40 min
Here u got to be 100% involved in the paper...don't assume the analytical part to be too
simple 'cz so many ppl qualified...max. of my freinds were preparin for MBA n that's
the reason of so many selections......
so regarding analytical
1.10 questions puzzle type- prepare analytical problem from Puzzle test R.S
Aggarwal....but they are actually too simple n infy asks a bit higher than those...similar
to those of Barrons 12th edition
2. 5 ques- syllogism...remember all rules from again R.S Aggarwal Verbal Non-Verbal
3. 5 ques-Conclusion, In Conclusion Questions dnt assume anything on ur own...just
imagine u know nothing about the topic and all u know is what is written in the
question and then read the options
4. 5 ques figure -odd one out -Well, I attepted figure questions the firt 'coz they were too
easy n no need practising the 500 questions in RS.
5. 5 ques DI- pie chart type...practice 4m RS Quanti
so that was analytical....u may go without ne preps also but with a fresh mind and then
solve questions with all ur effort...but manage time well
Verbal Section
40 ques 35 min
Now this depends 4m person 2 person...since i always loved English...this was very easy
4 me...
i don't remember more...but eliminating wrong answers and then guessin between the
probable correct answers helps!!!
Interview Experience
No technical
key factors they see
1. Values inculcated in u.. so be well dressed and disciplined
2. Learnability
3. Flexibility
4. Confidence
5. Communication Skills
My Interview was taken by a Sikh person whi was quite aged n was damn Strict Well
not boring u wid the entire conversation wot he asked me was
1. Countries and currencies(The imp ones)
2. Sates of India n Capitals..esp new ones
3. Pesident of India nad presidential candidates of USA
where i was trapped was wen i answered the president of India as -Pratibha Patil n yes u
thought its absolutely correct no guys its a wrong statement I shud hav answered
Mrs./Shrimati Pratibha Patil
so he replied "She is at the highest post of the country...shudn't u giv sum respect 2
her"n i thought i am blown...infy is known 4 values n i thought i am busted so i
aplogised but he asked me 2 leave
N the entire time till results i was damn tensed.....it was my dream company but finally i
was selected...... n one more thing Infy will give a second chance 2 those about whom
they are doubtful....
so all the best hope u dnt need that second chance prepare well n come join infy soon
n say- i am proud to be an INFOSCION...
