********************apptitute section***********************
1. a Question like A is engg. B is doctor C is artist etc then few condition related to them
you have give answer to 4 or 5 qs on these conditions .
2. same as above with different data and conditions.
i suggest you must go for these questions coz in 3 or 4 mins you can answer 7 or 8 qs
3. about 4 to 5 questions on arranging 4 sentences to form a paragraph.
4. 3 qs onfinding error in english sentences (two or three sentances given any one is incorrect which is underlined) you have to choose correct sentance from 4 options.

5. if father is three times as old as son . 5 years ago he was 4 times age of his son what is son age.
6. same as above but now daughter and mother joined in and age in question is that of daughter.
7.a figure is given find no of traingles in this figure
8. same as above but figure is diffrent and find no of squares and triangles.
9. sum of a series of n numbers is n+8 . find second (or second last, i dont remember) no.
this is all i can extract from my mind, there were few other good qs but what i have given is 80% of questions so this is more then enough. and remember it is compulsory to clear both sections . cut off is about 15 qs in each section.
