Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed
Question 3 How will you insert a new node between any two nodes in a linked list Write
the code
Question 4 How will you find a particular data in the linked list
Question 5 What is MD5
Question 6 What is RSA Explain its principle

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon

This type of Qs repeated 4times for me but values are different
Q6 Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game Given the expressionN = 9 + X + Y - Z
Where X Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9) Alok would like tomaximize N while Bhanuwould like to minimize it Towards this end Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu
substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X Y or Z) Alok then chooses the next valueand Bhanu the variable to substitute the value Finally Alok proposes the value for theremaining variable Assuming both play to their optimal strategies the value of N at theend of the game would be

Q7 Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game 20 coins are stacked one abovethe other One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins The goal is tobring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position inthe stack
Alice starts and the players take turns A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a

Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

This type of Qs repeated 4times for me but values are different
Q6 Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game Given the expressionN = 9 + X + Y - Z
Where X Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9) Alok would like tomaximize N while Bhanuwould like to minimize it Towards this end Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu
substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X Y or Z) Alok then chooses the next valueand Bhanu the variable to substitute the value Finally Alok proposes the value for theremaining variable Assuming both play to their optimal strategies the value of N at theend of the game would be
a) 0 b) 27 c) 18 d) 20

Q7 Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game 20 coins are stacked one abovethe other One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins The goal is tobring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position inthe stack
Alice starts and the players take turns A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a
position i below the top coin (0 = i = 20) We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move impliesdoing nothing) The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated for example once a
player makes a 2-move on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move If the goldcoin happens to be on top when its a players turn then the player wins the game Initially
the gold coinis the third coin from the top Then
a) In order to win Alices first move should be a 1-move

Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I

question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed
Question 3 How will you insert a new node between any two nodes in a linked list Write
the code
Question 4 How will you find a particular data in the linked list
Question 5 What is MD5
Question 6 What is RSA Explain its principle

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed

Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed
Question 3 How will you insert a new node between any two nodes in a linked list Write
the code
Question 4 How will you find a particular data in the linked list
Question 5 What is MD5
Question 6 What is RSA Explain its principle

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I

question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed
Question 3 How will you insert a new node between any two nodes in a linked list Write
the code
Question 4 How will you find a particular data in the linked list
Question 5 What is MD5

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed
Question 3 How will you insert a new node between any two nodes in a linked list Write
the code

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed

Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for

the answer would be 8)

Test Paper 8
Paper Type Candidate Experiences
Test Date 29 August 2010
Test Location SRMCEM Lucknow
Posted By Richa
I received a hall ticket from TCS to attend the off campus drive at SRMCEM Lucknow on
29th August at 8am There was a crowd of around 250-300 candidates in the morningbatch
It was a Computer Based Test(CBT) for 60 minutes We were to attempt 35 questions Thequestions were based on logics some of them were aptitude and a few were analytical
IMPORTANT I discussed with many friends who had appeared for this process recently
and also read it on wwwfreshersworldcom regarding the experience of other candidates
Many had to say that if you want to clear the Aptitude Round then you must attemptsomewhere around 23-25 questions to make it through But this is not the case What I
figured out was that TCS is selecting candidates based on their accuracy I attempted just16 questions and still made it through because all 16 questions I answered were correct I
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4754
made no guess Even one of my friends made through TCS on 28th August by attempting16 questions and all of them were right There were a few of my friends who attempted 17
question with 1-2 wrong answers and some who made 2-3 guesses They couldnt make
through the written round There was one candidate who attempted 15 questions and allright and he also made it through So all I could make out was that TCS is selectingcandidates on 100 accuracy ofcourse there must be some lower limit to the question you
should answer Since I saw a candidate attempting 15 questions and still making throughso I guess 15 would be the minimum out of 35 Please do not guess or do not attempt if youare not sure about your answer
The computer based test had questions fromArea and Perimeter Probability (Many questions from this chapter)
Problems on Ages (Many questions from this chapter)Pipes and Cisterns Ratio and Proportion and some logical questions
The questions are pretty lengthy but with all irrelevant statements I remember onequestion where they told about a romantic story of Alice and Paul and then right at the end
after 5-6 lines they came up with a question on ages of Alice and Paul Id rather suggest
everyone to start reading the question from where they find any Numerica data
I dont remember many questions but only a few (and that too not with exact numerical
value) Ill share with u a few questions such that you can understand what the questionasked for
Question 1 There is a toy train that can make 10 musical sounds It makes 2 musicalsounds after being defective What is the probability that same musical sound would be
produced 5 times consecutively ( 1 of )
Answer 12 12 12 12 12 = 13232 will be the answer (My friends got similar question with 3 times consecutively for that
the answer would be 8)
Question 2 Peter and Paul are two friends The sum of their ages is 35 years Peter is twiceas old as Paul was when Peter was as old as Paul is now What is the present age of Peter
Luckily I had this question twice Initially I left it because of the confusing statement butwhen I got the same question second time with different names of the friends (Pooja and
Prasad) then I gave a little extra time and solved it
Answer 20 years I simply substituted the answers in the statement to find the best fitbecause the statement in the question was pretty confusing
Question 3 The ages of two friends is in the ratio 56 After how many years will the agesbe in the ratio 78
Answer 10 years
Question 4 (There was a long story Ill cut short it) There are 5 materials to make aperfume Lilac Balsalmic Lemon Woody and Mimosaic To make a perfume that is indemand the following conditions are to be followed Lilac and Balsalmic go together Woodyand Mimosaic go together Woody and Balsalmic never go together Lemon can be added
with any material (Actually they had also mentioned how much amount of one can be
added with how much quantity of the other but thats not needed for the question) All of the following combinations are possible to make a perfume EXCEPT
1) Balsalmic and Lilac
2) Woody and Lemon
832019 Tcs Papers Original
httpslidepdfcomreaderfulltcs-papers-original 4854
3) Mimosaic and Woody4) Mimosaic and Lilac
Answer Mimosaic and Lilac I have made the question here really easy to understand But
the actual question was in a twisted language and it was difficult to find the answer It tookme some time to get to the answer
Question 5 A girl has to make pizza with different toppings There are 8 different toppingsIn how many ways can she make pizzas with 2 different toppings
Answer 8 7 = 56
Question 6 A triangle is made from a rope The sides of the triangle are A cm B cm and C
cm (I do not remember the numerical value) What will be the area of the square madefrom the same rope
Question 7 What is the distance of the z-intercept from the x-intercept in the equationax+by+cz+d=0 (I do not remember the values of abcd)
Question 8 An athlete decides to run the same distance in 14th less time that she usually
took By how much percent will she have to increase her average speedAnswer 3333
Question 9 A horse chases a pony 3 hours after the pony runs Horse takes 4 hours to
reach the pony If the average speed of the horse is 35 kmph what s the average speed of the pony (This question was really long with loads of irrelevant statement)
These are a few questions that I could recall I made through the aptitude round byattempting 16 questions Next was Technical Interview Round
Technical Interview
Here I will discuss the technical questions that were asked to me and also the questions
asked to my friends
Question 1 Write the pointer representation of a[i][j][k]
Question 2 i = 5i++ ++i --i i-- 5What will be the output if it is printed
Question 3 How will you insert a new node between any two nodes in a linked list Write
the code
Question 4 How will you find a particular data in the linked list
Question 5 What is MD5
Question 6 What is RSA Explain its principle
