@mohan1218 i think 10-15 post may be?
Yeah...10 to 15 maximum. For which, 30 - 50 people would get the interview calls.

So...Unless you are in the top 50 people who took the test, you wouldn't even have a chance...

part3-Technical,100 (mind-blowing,if u thought ONGC wz hell, dn wait HAL wz hell of hells!! & frnz, NO APTI,IT WZ ENGINEERING MATHS--hardcore)

1.General awareness(dont think dt u vl gt 1 or 2 questions 4m dz,all papers r hvn different questions,FACT)

Mine is on 25th...I'm trying to read from Made Easy PSU book..

Worried about G.K...At least for tech part I can guess the probable answer!! But not for G.K!!

gave my paper today, everything was tuff.


Section1 (GK)- medium level

dnt take too much pressure on this side, the questions wud b general

Section2 (eng+lr) high level

level was good, english vocab was tuff, lr wud go smooth.
definitely 2-3 ques were easy, to boost confidence, but not all.

Section3(tech) high level

mech guys, my papr had maximum metallurgy nd production(around 10-15 ques)(MY BAD)
nd 1-2 ques from all the subjects(incl maths).
the questions were conceptual as well as numericals.
calculations were intensive.
2-3 english questions also, dnt kno y...

Personally, i wud feel that they r mixing the topics of the papr diffrently for diff day, as the prev day ques reportd by @anirban.xcd for a prev day, his was more of mechanics side, mine was more of production side.

Finally, there were 3-4 questions that were wrong or had data missing for sure.
like in 1 ques, the ques had find out for the following diagram, nd no diagram or details was given nd options were postd.
be prepared for such silly.

personally, not expecting nything of a call or score.



@fifi give me the idea about reasning part which type ques were there,plz my exm is tomorow.

1. Odd man out
2. Number series
3. Figure Series
4. Blood Relations
5. Seating Arrangements.
