Aptitude Question Paper-GATE & PSU Exam

/ Previous Year Questions / Nielit Exam, Previous Year Questions, PSU pyqs

Here, we will see the Aptitude Question Paper from the previous year’s exam and the Aptitude syllabus for the GATE and PSU exams.

1. Aptitude in PSU Exam

Aptitude sections in competitive exams like the GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) for Computer Science Engineering (CSE) and PSU (Public Sector Undertakings) recruitment assess foundational skills in problem-solving, logical reasoning, and communication. These sections are pivotal for scoring well and securing opportunities in academia or top-tier engineering roles.

2. Aptitude Syllabus

The Aptitude Questions asked in the GATE and PSU Exam focused on topics:

  1. Verbal Ability: English grammar, sentence correction, synonyms/antonyms, reading comprehension, and critical reasoning.
  2. Numerical Ability: Arithmetic (percentages, ratios), algebra, geometry, trigonometry, statistics (mean, median), probability, and data interpretation

PSU exams (e.g., BHEL, ONGC) test similar areas but often emphasize logical reasoning, data analysis, and decision-making. Key topics include quantitative techniques, non-verbal reasoning (patterns, sequences), and scenario-based problem-solving. Some roles may include managerial aptitude or general awareness.
