Hi,
ReplyDeleteI have followed your blog religiously for both my attempts at e-litmus.
This Section is my Weak Point. The level of questions which actually come in the exam of this type have many more relations and complexities involved.
It would be helpful if you can provide tougher and more complex questions of this type.

I have replied you regarding (in mail) Quant section.Sorry for that.
DeletePractice is the only point here.I Logical section try to solve Crypt must.
In given problem, there are 2 possibilities i.e. either B can work in Personnel or Administration department.
ReplyDeleteIf B works in Personnel Department then F should work in Marketing, and if B works in Administration Department then F should work either in Personnel or Marketing.
So, 1 answer need to be corrected. Answer should be "Inadequate Data".
