Satyam Interview Experience and Learnings -4

Selection procedure: Half an hour aptitude test comprising of 15 questions, each correct question carries a single mark and a wrong question has a 1/4 negative marks i.e-1/4.
Remember negative marking will be there, don’t try to guess the answers. First choose the questions which are easy and not lengthy. Believe   me many question were very easy but only thing is they will try to confuse you .

Written test is only APTITUDE .Does not contain any technical questions.Most of the questions were from  “QUATITATIVE APTITUDE BY R.S AGGARWAL” and “SHAKUNTALA DEVI’S PUZZLE BOOKS”. No verbal questions i.e no synonyms and antonyms.

f)One Question was like this: if bag of black and white balls are given and told you to pick any two if they are of same color throw them out and add a single ball of other color from the infinitely available pool. if this process of throwing out 2 and adding 1 continues, then eventually the bag gets emptied. if the exact status of number of black and  white balls are given then, some question was given and answers had 3 choices

i) black    ii)white    iii)data is not sufficient

g) Very first question had 11 sentences, If  figures out a number. you need to use these sentences and find that number.

Ex:
