How to show your answer : Each question is followed

by answers which are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Select
the most appropriate answer. Then by using HB Pencil
blacken the oval bearing the correct answer number
against the serial number of the question. For
example, if the answer to Question Number 2 is
answer number 5, it is shown as follows :

Please also note that you should not use an H, 2H/HH, 3H

type of pencils. The marks made by such hard pencil will
be too light and will not be read by the computerised
machine. So such hard pencils are NOT TO BE USED.
If you use too soft pencils like 2B/BB, 3B etc., your marks
will be too dark. So when you want to change your answer
by erasing the first one, there may be smudges or dark
marks in place of the erased answer and around. So soft
Pencils are NOT TO BE USED. THEREFORE, USE ONLY
HB PENCILS.

While changing the answer, erasing the earlier answer

completely is extremely essential. If it is not erased
completely, smudges will be left on the erased oval
as shown below and the question will be read as
having two answers and will be ignored for giving
any credit.

Please note that the oval should be dark enough and

should be filled in as completely as possible. You
need not make special efforts to darken any oval
artistically.
How to change your Answer : If you wish to change
your answer ERASE completely the already darkened
oval by using good quality eraser and then blacken the
new oval bearing your revised answer number.

(Smudge left in oval No. 3 due to bad eraser and the fresh
answer in oval No. 4 will be read as two answers 3 & 4
and therefore no credit will be given even if the answer
No. 4 happens to be the correct answer.)

Candidates who pass in each test and rank sufficiently

high on the basis of the aggregate marks in the written
examination as stated above only would be called for
interview. The number of such candidates would depend
upon the number of vacancies to be filled in.
THERE WILL BE PENALTY FOR WRONG ANSWER
MARKED BY YOU IN THE OBJECTIVE TESTS. There
are five alternatives in every question of a test. For
each question for which a wrong answer has been
given by you, one-fourth or 0.25 of the marks assigned
to that question will be deducted as penalty. If for
any question you give more than one answer, it will
be treated as wrong even if one of the given answers
happens to be right and there will be the same penalty

There may also be problems in the form of figures,

designs and drawings. These may be of three types :
1. Analogies

2. Classification and

3. Series

1. Analogies :
In these questions, there are two sets of figures. the
Problem Figures and the Answer Figures. The Problem
Figures are presented in two units. The first unit contains
two figures and the second unit contains one figure and
a question mark in place of the fourth figure. You have to
find out which one of the Answer Figures should be in
place of the question mark.
Study the following questions based on Analogies.

Look at the first two Problem Figures. The second figure

is related to the first figure in a certain way. The first figure
is a square. In the second figure, the square has been
bisected by a vertical line and the right half has been
darkened.

The third and fourth figures should have the same

relationship as the first and the second have. The third
figure is a circle, so in the fourth figure, the circle should
be bisected by a vertical line and the right half should be
darkened. Answer Figure 5 is related to the third Problem
Figure in this way. Therefore the answer is 5.

Study the first and the second figures in the Problem

Figures. The first figure is a darkened square and in the
second figure, there are four squares, not darkened,
arranged in a particular way. That means the elements in
the second figure are four times the elements in the first
figure and are not darkened. In addition, the four squares
are arranged in a specific way and are not touching one
another.

arranged in the same way as in the second figure. Now

look at the Answer Figures. You will find that figure 1
consists of four circles which are not darkened arranged
in a similar way. Therefore, the answer is 1.

Study the first and the second figures in the first unit of
the Problem Figures. The first figure is made up of four
lines and the second figure is made up of five lines. That
means the second figure has one line more than the first
figure. The third figure in the second unit has five lines.
Therefore, the fourth figure should have six lines i.e. one
more than the third. Now look at the Answer Figures.
You will find that figure 3 is made up of six lines. Therefore,
the answer is 3.

In classification, the Problem Figures are also the Answer

Figures. Out of the five figures 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, four are
similar in a certain way and so form a group. One figure
is not like the other four. The question is which one of the
figures does not belong to this group.

For example, look at the example at Q. No. 12. Of the five

figures, four figures are such that in each of them, there
are two similar figures, one within the other. These four
figures form a group. Figure 1 is unlike this and so does not
belong to this group. Therefore the answer is 1.

group as they represent different types of containers while
the fifth figure, a spoon, does not represent a container.
Therefore the answer is 5.

The four Problem Figures make a series. That means

they change from left to right in a specific order. The
question is if the figures continue to change in the same
order, what should the fifth figure be ? In the example
above, as you go from left to right, you find that the arrow
inside the circle keeps rotating at 900 in the clockwise
direction. The question is, if the arrow continues to rotate
by the same amount in the clockwise direction, what will
be its next, i.e. fifth position ? The answer is that it should
point towards the top in the fifth figure. Answer Figure 2
shows this position of the arrow. Therefore, the answer
is 2.

Look at Q.17 carefully. You will see two different things

happening here. When you move from left to right, the
number of black dots inside the hexagon is increasing by
one everytime in the anti-clockwise direction. But note
that the white dot is moving in the clockwise direction. In
the fifth figure, the white dot should be at the upper left
corner of the hexagon. Only Answer Figure 3 has bothone black dot getting added at the lower left corner and
the white dot moving to the upper left corner. So, the
answer is 3.
