Amdocs Test Pattern

Amdocs test has 2 sections

1. Aptitude consist of 4 sections consisted of diagrammatic reasoning n non verbal stuff

2. Technical test consisted of 4 sections each of pseudocode,c,unix n sql all tests r computer based

In C learn for - Programming (ARRAY,SEARCH,SEQUENCE NUMBERS,PERFECT
NUMBBERS,FIBONOCCI etc),Quries on STRINGS ,MACRO especially

In SQL learn for - Commands that are somewhat internal like COMMIT,
etc..but its easy only

In UNIX learn for - the common features of UNIX console,executing the
commands ,syntax etc.,

The aptitude cum technical test for Amdocs consisted of 7-8 papers. The test is computer based .It takes abt 5-6 hrs. Each paper has a time slot . u can take a break after each test. It's very cool.

The tests were :

1. Analytical reasoning:simple maths

2. diagrammatic reasoning: In this, we were given 8 diagrams and had to select the 9th corresponding dg frm the givn choices. U have to be very fast in this test.

3. problems to be solved using Venn diagrams.

4. This test was to check our adaptation to the computer screen.We had to solve abt 30 qs in 15 min( I don't remember the timings very well). eg: q#Df684%d
   options would be: 1. q#Df634%d 2. q#Df684%d 3. q#df684%D 4. q#Df685%d U have to be very very fast in this also.

5. In this test we were given a booklet of abt 7-8 pgs in which there was the syntax of some hypothetical lang, ( its syntax was somewhat like Visual Basic). This was very easy since the whole syntax was g iven & u can refer to it.
   We were given almost 90-120mins for this test. If u want u can rd the booklet before the start of the test.(As I said, U can start a paticular test whenever u want). The qs consisted of programs for which u have to find the o/p or where there is wrong syntax etc.

6. C test: Study pointers very well .Visit www.c4swimmers.esmartguy.com that helps you to test the C/C++ programming strengths.

7. SQL test: It consisted of sql queries mainly inner join, outer join ,group by statements etc.

8. Unix test: kernel, 1-2 qs on TCP/IP, basic commands ( more on commands).
