ICET 2009 Syllabus
Section-A:
Analytical Ability:
1. Data Sufficiency:
A
question is given followed by data in the form of two statements
labeled as i and ii. If the data given in i alone is sufficient to
answer the question then choice (1) is the correct answer.
If the data given in ii alone is sufficient to answer the question the choice. (2) is the correct answer.
If both i and ii put together are sufficient to
answer the question but neither statement alone is sufficient, then
choice (3) is the correct answer, if both i and ii put together are not
sufficient to answer the question and additional data is needed, then
choice (4) is the correct answer.
2. Problem Solving:
Sequences
and Series 25Q (25 Marks) Analogies of numbers and alphabet, completion
of blank spaces following the pattern in a:b::c:d relationship; odd
thing out: missing number in a sequence or a series.
Data
Analysis 10Q (10 Marks) The data given in a Table, Graph, Bar diagram,
Pie Chart, Venn Diagram or a Passage is to be analyzed and the
questions pertaining to the data are to be answered.
Coding
and Decoding Problems 10Q (10 Marks) A code pattern of English Alphabet
is given. A given word or a group of letters are to be coded or decoded
based on the given code or codes.
Date,
Time & Arrangement Problems 10Q (10 Marks) Calendar problems, clock
problems, blood relationships, arrivals, departures and schedules,
seating arrangements, symbol and notation interpretation.
