there are 3 persons.....jane robinson,smith paterson and one more, they are pilot,engineer,
biochemist....but not in that order....based on that some conditions given we have to find
who is pilot?i think the soln is.....jane robinson is pilot!   TIPS 1:
   I already mentioned that they will have some cut-off....my suggesstion
fix the target to reach that cut-off....for that, first atten the 8-marks questions and then
6-marks question and then 4-marks...3marks  TIPS 2:
   they will announce only 5 min more.....while that time, if u find any
question yet to atten, please note it down that in ur rough sheet....so that u can solve it in
some part of english test section,if u r well good in english....because they get back ur
puzzle question paper after 60 min time get elapsed.....but take it seriously the english part
also....
  
     TIPS 3:
   All are repeated questions.....its better to prepare from previous question
papers....that's enough.......
   give last priority....to some puzzle books.....  NOTE about 3rd tips.... iam saying about current situation....that is currently
they are asking repeated questions....in future i don't know....may be different...in that case
approach some puzzle books......
  shukuntala devi book's is best...   SECTION 2English paper          duration 30 minit was the easy one.....it consists of....Comphrenshive questions....fill the blank with sutiable words....Analogy questions
......founding error statement from given set of statements....grammers....etc.... 
-----------------------------------i hope, atleast 70% it will be useful for all....... only think as per infy test is, even though you hard work, our time should be good...
luck plays the main role.....because i attend 9 questions
....i know very well that all 9 questions are correct...even though i wrote steps clearly in the
given rough sheet....iam not selected in the test....and one more thing, my friend attend all 10
questions.....the same happens for him also..... after finishing the test....we discussed the questions....we got the similar solutions for the
9 questions i attend........
eventhough, i missed one question....i really hoped that my friend will defintely select...
but fate....he also not......So, my suggesstion is hard work is the key......but luck is more than that........(please dont mistake me if u found any fault in words about my suggestions)
