The analytical section included questions from quant (set theory, data sufficiency, cubes,etc.) and Logical Reasoning.
The third section was the easiest and did not require any special preparation. From a group of patterns, we had to determine if they were alike or different.
The fourth was the technical section and had 5 questions each from C and DS. This was the toughest section.Time management is absolutely important. There were sectional cutoffs and so we had to clear each section.

  • Q3. Difference between TCP and UDP ?
  • Ans. 

    TCP is a connection-oriented protocol while UDP is connectionless.

    • TCP provides reliable data transfer while UDP does not guarantee reliability.

    • TCP uses flow control and congestion control while UDP does not.

    The probability that three ants running on the edges of an equilateral triangle will never meet is 1/3.

    • The ants will never meet if they all move in the same direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) at the same speed.

    • The probability of this happening is 1/3, as each ant has two possible directions to choose from.

    • Example: If one ant starts moving clockwise, the other two ants must also move clockwise to never meet.
