The UNIX test, as people say was not that difficult. It was just like any other test. I got 75% in UNIX. Abhishek Pal said that 92 out of 96 people failed (though he got 96%) in UNIX from his class but from our class only about 10% may have failed. So it depends on the difficulty level, i guess. Moreover we got a weekend to study UNIX properly. That too helped a lot.
The PLES interview was just a time pass as it was for less than 10 mins for each of us with only 1 interviewer taking the interview. They basically wanted to know how passionate we are about PLES. That question was common to all. Rest was asked from the favorite subject that we mentioned. Only 1-2 simple questions were asked to each of us. Like draw Otto cycle, Diesel Cycle, definition of endurance limit, what is FEM, normalizing etc. And 1-2 questions about our final year project. They will announce the results in a week.
And my compre hands on is on this friday and compre theory test on monday. Wish me luck.!!.. ;-)

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
1)In the C and other modules do they give any extra assignments to do other than the assignments in the Labguide pdf files?
2) In the compre hands on do u have to write programs on C & qurries on RDMS can u take help from books in that exam? U will take books to the exam hall?
3) Can u tell in detail about the pattern of the hands on?
4) what type of qns r there in UNIX commands or what?
