the following remarks:



Don’t remember exactly but the answer I wrote was 55 m

and brown colour snake.




The remaining two questions were logical and lengthy .

I could not get time. Anyways one was relating to six

persons are from six places and professions are given.

u have to match each person along with the profession

and his place.



And one question was relating to various

characteristics such as a tall men, lean men, muscular

men, rich man, employed , fair skinned and not fair

skin. The relation between the various characteristics

are given and based on that u are to find answers to a

subset of question such as

A: if the unfair men is muscular whether he is

employed or not.

Like this 4 questions are there. And options are

given. U are to tick the answer which can be derived

from above relationships.





The English section was pretty easy:

A reading comprehension , followed by some fill up the

blanks, the again a fill in the blanks of a passage

with the correct tense of the word. And then few find

the correct match and spot the error questions.

This is all I could remember
