The first round is usually a written test, but the pandemic has turned it into an online test. This round is not mandatory for experienced people and can be skipped. This is usually 90 minutes long round where the candidate has to answer several Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs). The number of questions varies with regards to the difficulty level of the questions, that is if the questions are harder you will have around 20 questions. Well, if you get around or more than 40 questions, don’t panic, just understand that the questions are easier. This round contains around 20 to 30 questions from both general aptitude and programming aptitude. Usually, the general aptitude questions cover around 30% to 50%, with the remaining questions from C programming.

Instead of conducting computer based multiple choice exams, the college decided to use the traditional paper and pen method for freshmen to ensure fairness, simplicity, and ease during their first assessments.
