PERSISTENT PAPER ON 15th FEBRUARY
Hello guys
I appeared for persistent campus.
Appeared 132
Shortlisted 20
After 2 TI.
Selected : Only One!!! (Hmhhh!!!! That's not me) The first test was of 30marks & had 60 minutes & no -ve marking. But, remember that they tell you: "No -ve marking ,so that you can attempt all!" But it's their trick they want to eliminate candidates who Guess options (what we call as Tole,or Tukke)
C ques was on pointers & arrays, Macros,Scope of variables. Plz read probability also.(Throwing dice & coins , cards Plz note, they will also collect your rough sheet along with answer sheet & i think it's also some strategy.
2nd test was on programming 2 programs have to be written 1) Binary Tree Sort (assume tree is there & use 'in order' traversal. ) 2)Finding element in array (Use Binary search if given array is 'sorted') They focus on complexity also.
1St TI
