  Hi #-Link-Snipped-#, Infosys would test all aspects of your aptitude.
  Arithemetic and analytic reasoning:
  This would basically include questions from data interpretation and data sufficiency. A chart/bar graph/pie graph would be provided followed by few questions. Data sufficiency would mean justifying a statement from two/three sentences related to it. Here, you need to judge which sentence(s) are actually sufficient to prove the given statement.
  
  Mathematical, logical reasoning:
  This includes general quantitative aptitude like simultaneous equations, probability, p and c, speed-time-distance, problems on trains, age, ratio and proportion etc.
  
  Verbal aptitude:
  This section would test your overall English. A paragraph may be given followed by questions, sentence completion/correction, finding synonyms/antonyms, testing grammar skills etc.
  Hope this answers your query. Good luck!

  i have a doubt regarding section-ii (mathematical critical thinking ).
  They are giving 35 min for 10 questions only. That much time is not given for simple quant questions.

  Frankly, I don't have idea about number questions and provided time.
  Like you said, 35min for 10 questions is too much. What I can simply guess is that these questions might be tricky as 1min per question is enough. You need to be good with calculations, applying concepts and logic.

  #-Link-Snipped-# #-Link-Snipped-# Could anyone discuss what kinds of questions were asked under various sections in New test pattern by Infosys? It would be really helpful for other test takers.

  Actually the new Infy pattern is like,
  1.Logical Reasoning-15 questions-35 mins (5 DI questions, 5 Syllogisms, 5 data sufficiency)
  2.Quantitative Aptitude-10 questions-25 mins (5 puzzle kind of questions, 1cryptography, Time and Distance, Boats, Ages,probability etc.,)
  3.Communicative English test(40 questions-35 mins)
  I've recently (Nov 22) took the online test..!

  #-Link-Snipped-# Thanks! That would be of much help.
  How was the difficulty level? Which section did you find the simplest and which one was the toughest?

  Pleasure's mine and the difficulty level for me ( 😛 ) is like,
  Logical - The DI question really confused me as it consisted of a table with birth and death rate of male and female population for a series of 4 years.The table really confused me as it had improper values I.e with improper values.,we've to work through out the table very carefully.! Syllogism and DA were not that tough. So,be prepared for the Logical round.
  2 The quants was such easy. No need to worry.But have to solve the puzzle question with atmost carefulness.Otherwise it'll be a nightmare.
  3.Verbal was easy as the Reading comprehension constitutes 15 marks and the questions were also very much straight forwarded. Just work on Synonyms and Antonyms part 😀 😀
  That's it 😀

  Were there any Negative marking when you took up the test latest?
  Also can you please let me know which section to spend more time on or which section consumes more time generally. I ain't so good with Numericals when compared to the communication phase. So please advise. #-Link-Snipped-#

  Is there any Negative marks? / What about sectional cutoff? & sectional time limit? Can we switch between the sections?
