Tips to clear ISRO / BARC / PSUs
- Technical section is GATE-level: previous-year GATE questions are the best drill.
- Negative marking applies — accuracy beats coverage.
- General engineering aptitude mixes all branches; don't skip it.
Exam rules
- Sections run one after another with their own timer. You cannot go back to a finished section.
- When a section's time runs out it is submitted automatically.
- To clear, score at least 65% in every section (our practice guideline, not the company's official cut-off).
- Wrong answers carry negative marks.
- Coding rounds open each problem in a new tab; tick it once all its test cases pass.
