TCS NQT experience (Sept slot)

Asked by Ishita Bose 2 months ago 5 answers 19 votes

Gave NQT last week, writing this down while I still remember.

Sections were numerical, verbal, reasoning and then the advanced part (advanced quant + advanced coding). Numerical was mostly percentages, profit loss, time and work, one or two probability. Nothing crazy if you have practised.

Verbal had a lot of reading comprehension, those take time so dont spend too long on sentence completion.

Coding: 1 question in foundation (string, easy) and 2 in advanced. I could only do one of the advanced ones fully, second one passed some test cases.

Time is the main problem honestly, practise with a timer. Result not out yet.

How many test cases did the second advanced question have? Asking because I heard partial marks count
