We are called for GD around 2 30 PM…I was not taken any good lunch…They provide ID card my number is 13…Topic given……2 min over…Our GD person asks us to start…That’s all our GD room become fish market…

More then 12 among us started at the same moment…I get tensed…A guy from KSR had initiated…

I had waited for 6 to start in GD because my lucky no is 6

5 finished… I tried to start next… I can’t…6 gone 7th gone 8th gone……… 12th gone and at the last 13th also gone…

I was very tensed…. Then I raised my voice…. every one stopped…I spoke for 30 to 40 seconds… That’s all

Then I tried to contribute some more point in between the discussion… but I can’t

15 min over… sir asked to stop… (At the moment I think I am the one of the person who is going to eliminate)

Then comes conclusion part. Sir asked to conclude the section… He gave the chance to every one and asked then to conclude…

Again the Number played in my life….

He asked 1st person and then 2nd person then came to 14th and 15th person… Then he again switches over to 3rd person to 12th person…

The remaining one number is 13 my num… It’s my turn…

I came forward to conclude… At the time a shock came… Sir asked us to leave the room…. A great shock came to me…

I was totals upset with GD…(I confirmed that I was eliminated)

But my friends cooled me and we were waiting for GD result…

In 5th batch totally 7 was short listed… Again shocking news…. My name is also there…In that moment I was speech less…

In GD don’t consider the others… Do your job… Please give the Valuable point… it is more than enough

L & T INFOTECH PAPER ON 2nd JUNE

L & T INFOTECH PAPER ON 2nd JUNE

Hi friends…Im a student of CVRCE who gave L&T infotech exam on 2nd june 2007 i would like to share paper with u people…

There were three rounds
1.Aptitude
2.Technical +HR

Aptitude Questions :
-> If a person takes 5 days and 8 hrs to dig a trench ; then how many persons will dig 3 trenches in 1 day (with each day of 8 hrs work) ?

-> If 4apples and 6oranges cost 13/- and 2apples & 4oranges cost 7/- find cost of one apple and one orange.
Sol: subtract 2nd eqn from 1st then we have 2a-2o=6 =>1apple and 1orange cost 3/-

-> If a person travels for P km in t hrs and then increases his speed by x km/hr find his new speed.
a) (p/t)+x b) pt+x c)p/x+t d)pt/x ans:a

-> A man has to dilute milk from 36lts which costs x/- to y/- a litre wat is da amt of water that he should add ?

-> If avg. of 6 nos. is 8 and later 2 new nos. are added such that the avg of the present 8 nos is 6 then what is the avg of newly added two nos.
Sol: avg=total sum of values/ no of objects or observation
? 8 =total sum of values of 6 nos /6
? total sum of values of 6 nos=6*8=48
now when 2 new nos are added applying same formula 6= total sum of values of 8 nos/8
? total sum of values of 8 nos=48 so the value has not changed which means the sum of added 2 nos is zero so avg=zero/2=zero

-> If you divide a number by 5 and 7 then the reminder is 2 If you divide that number by 35 then what is the reminder ?

-> The Arthematic mean of …. .. .. … (i dnt remember )

->. One on mean 6 16 64 ?

-> What % of 4/7 is 4/5?
Sol: {(4/5)/(4/7)}*100= ans =140%

-> By what % should a person sell an article so as to gain a profit of 24% even after giving a discount of 10 %
Sol) the easiest way to solve such problems is by assuming the cost price as 100rs
So to get a profit of 24% means to sell at 100+24=124/-
So suppose he sold it at 10% discount initially he sells at 90rs so ther is a difference of 34/- (options were a)40% b)45% c)50% d)60/- )

-> Matrix addition:
If 1 2 3 1 1 1 0 1 2
5 7 9 = 3 4 7 + 2 3 2
2 3 4 1 1 1 1 2 ?
then what is the value of ? (some thing like this )

-> Find the determinant of a 3*3 matrix?

-> A red light glows every 10sec, yellow every 15sec and red every 18sec. find the number of times all three glow together from 8:00AM to 9:00AM (including both times)
Sol : LCM of 10,15,18 = 90
So every 90 seconds all three glow together so in one hour there are 3600 secs So 3600/90=40 times but answer is 41 because they glow at 0th second that is at 8 Am since both times are included.

-> The bus was traveling at a distance of 60 mts before a car in 20 secs da car is ahead of bus by 40 mts if the car was traveling at a rate of 30km/hr Find the speed of da bus ?

Sol: based on trigonometry heights and distances: sin60=height of kite/length of string(altitude/hypotenuse)

->sqrt625.13 * 16 + 1667.66 / 17 == ???? ( dont remember the values correctly)
