So looking for a job in 3i.. well if yes then dont worry at all for apti n all. On 28th of jan , i wrote 3's paper. Now i m going to describe it--
There was 3 sections- English usage, Logical Reasoning and arithmetic n data interpretation There was i total 150 q's, having 50 q's from each sections. All Q's were easy.
Time limit : 90 mins
Before going to venue, just read out the instructions given on the site, coz there was lot of confusions. I did keep with me the specimen answer sheet.
Section 1: English usage
In this there was a paragrap, nearly 400 words, about regularization of banking acts. On basis of this para there was q's . These are as follows-
--> 10 direct q's relataed to para
--> 3 Synoyms(Contemporay, Resilence etc.)
--> 3 Antonyms
--> 9 q's were based on fill in d blanks which was nothing bt, about Development and Education inPunjab and U.P.
on an aveage all d synonyms n antonyms were very easy and day to day conversational use. These synonyms and antonyms were given in bold in d para.
While solving this type para plz keep in mind that one time reading with better comprehension is nt only helpful, bt u have o use regression. Remaining 25 q's were based on finding out grammatical error(u can see in any cat/ mat preparartion book). On these some were diifficult.
In this section i did only 23 q's.
Section 2 : Reasoning
--> 1 caselet based sitting arrangement(5-6 q's)
--> 5 q's based on Blood Relation(if A+B stands for A is father of B , A-B stands for Ais bro of B......... then what is A-B*c so on )
--> 5 q's based on critical resoning(like all banana's are mango, some mangoes are chilli then conclude...)
--> 4-5 q's based on series. In this you have to find out odd one in he series.
--> Some on coding decodg
--> Some were slightly different. These were like -- 5 different nos were given and said that 1 is added to the first digit of all numbers and 1 is subtracted from the middle digit. then Find out the second largest n so on.
--> Some were Data Sufficiency
Suggestion: For seies go through Mtyra's Book Quicker maths.
Section 3 : Arithmetic
In this topic on which Q's were based, is as -
1. Probab -- 5 q's, in this q like--- there are different balls in a bag as3-green, 5-blue, 7-red. 6-black then find out the probab of getting 2 red balls, gtting at least 1 gren ball while picking up 3 balls n so on.
2. Series Comletion- 5 q
3. Simplification-10-12 q, as (1) if 12.48 / ? / 56.4 = 12.3 then find ? and so on
4. Compound Interest -1q (Direct Formula)
5. Trains speed-1q as, A train crosses a platform of length double of its length, in 30 sec. Find speed of train.(Ans- can not determined)
6. Data Interpretation- 15 q, 2tables and 1 pie chart, vey easy just calculation basis.
Do as much as possible Bank po sets, there is nothing bt all depends on UR CALCULATION SPEED. So start mental calculation from today it will help u in this and other papers as well. Andd dont forget to pray for me I m waiting for call...
