I would give you the syllabus patter of HPCL exam. The test will consist of two parts.

Part-I: 120 questions, Part-II: 50 questions. time: 2hours ,No negative marking. Part-I: This section consists of Quantitative, English Language and Intellectual ability(reasoning)-120 questions Part-II: This section consists of questions from Technical Knowledge-50 questions Total written exam time is 2 hours and total questions is 170, so here time management is very important. The detailed type of questions in each part will be : PART-I English Language: they given around 40 questions from this, like prepositions, articles, meanings, antonyms, reading passage and correction of sentences Quantitative : in this section also they given around 40 questions, they asked about ratios, percentages, etc Intellectual Ability: here also they given 40 questions, here they given some series of figures and asked find the next figure. and two statements are given and asked find the conclusion and also they given one conclusion ,they asked find the correct statement like wise they asked 40 questions from reasoning. PART-II this is Technical section which would be completely your engineering subject oriented. So have a thorough knowledge of your engineering subjects. The questions will be from all the core subjects of your stream.

hi dear,i sending you pattern of Hpcl exam...best luck.But for the sample paper you have to go on www.freshersworld.com Part-I: this section consists of Quantitative, English Language and Intellectual ability (reasoning)-120 questions Part-II: this section consists of questions from Technical Knowledge-50 questions Total written exam time is 2 hours and total questions is 170. so here time management is very important. here i will give clearly what type of questions they asked PART-I English Language: they given around 40 questions from this, like prepositions, articles, meanings, antonyms, reading passage and correction of sentences Quantitative : in this section also they given around 40 questions, they asked about ratios, percentages, etc Intelluctual Ability: here also they given 40 questions, here they given some series of figures and asked find the next figure. and two statements are given and asked find the conclusion and also they given one conclusion, they asked find the correct statement like wise they asked 40 questions from reasoning. PART-II This is Technical section, here i given what type of questions they asked and the topics also for Instrumentation branch they asked mainly on the following topics, these all are basics only, control systems, micro processor, op-amps, transducers, measurements, logic circuits and some from micro controllers,they asked most of the questions from control systems and digital electronics. all questions are objective type questions, so we have to answer 170 questions from 120 min. so time management is very important.

Exam Introduction :Students can Work in Public cum Government jobs which is under PSU's i.e Public Sector Undertaking. Government jobs are ONGC, BHEL, ISRO, BSNL, EBLetc One of them is HPCL i.e Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited Website for Reference. Papers & Pattern :For Paper Look on to Attachments The Written Exam Consists of Two Parts General Aptitude & Technical Aptitude. General aptitude include Intellectual Potential test, Quantitative Aptitude and English Language. The technical test consists of Questions Related to Particular Stream Like if you are From Engineering Electrical Stream then Form Electrical Background technical Question will be Fetched.
