Hello ppl..
I got the call for the test on 16th may 2006 .Exactly 12 days before the exam.I was very apprehensive abt givin the test.. as my semester exams were goin on moreover i had my semester exam on 29th may.But wid the persuasion ofmyfrnds n family member idecided 2 give it a shot. So i just studied for hardly four days. Trust me if u solve all the previous years papers... its more than sufficient.... but u shud also know the approach of solving some key questions of shakuntala devi.. dnt try george summers at the last moment... as it confuses a lott. 28th may 2006 paper was from the previous years papers... questions werent tough.. i got 8.5 questions right ... and finished them well on time... i was confident ofclearin the written exam.Results were declared at arnd 4:00 my name was there. my interview was at arnd 9:20 in the morning i was very relieved as i had my semester exam at 2:30pm.. Interview was of only 15 minutes . theyasked me general questions...take my advice keep smiling and dont be too stubborn if they are objecting... and yeah in ur resume dont write nething extra in the extracurricular/achievements .....as they grill u .....completely
they asked me a very simple puzzle in the interview (A couple stays in a buildin wid a kid on the 15th floor . Building is not inhabited bymany ppl. their kid goes 2 play every evening n uses elevator.. but while coming bak he uses elevator goes to the 5th floor..n then walk up the stairs. what is the reason??)
my answer was probably the child is nt tall enuf topressthe 15th floor button. then they asked me for another reason .. n i said prolly he has got frnds on the5th floor so he goes up after socializing.they strd laughing).
i was pretty surprized when they asked me to leave after 15 minutes... wasnt sure ofgettin thru..
but got the mail from infy in 10 days .....
i would really like to thank uguys .. this sitewas very useful in gettin methru infy.
good luck to all....
