SECTION 3

Consists of CRITICAL REASONING

You must be through with the barron gre 12th edithion critical reasoning. See they will tell you at the time of ppt that there wont be any sectional cut off but i observed that those who did well in aptitude section and not in this section were not able to clear this round.

2 more easy questions were also there that you can get at the barron book

All the questions from the critical reasoning book were available there but as the test was online So each one was getting different questions you must be through with this section......

TECHNICAL INTERVIEW

My technical interview was very good from the first question itself i got my confidence they praised me for my first answer My questions were

1) what is class, object?
