   Multiple slots. Math easy to moderate but lengthy; time pressure; coding second problem tricky. Selection for the programme, not a direct internship.

Advice from candidates

5 pieces of advice, in their own words. Names removed.

• Do check out the previous years’ papers and attempt at least one mock test from a previous year paper. Do not lose your patience while solving questions because accuracy matters, especially in math and ML sections.

• it is important to plug time leakage and utilise it for the coding section. Do not stick to solving very lengthy questions, you can come to them at the end, if time permits.

  test · 2024-25

• For math, your JEE mathematics , Linear Algebra , Probability and Statistics and college syllabus is enough. Statistics is the key area you need a practice with.

  preparation · 2024-25

• It is very important to revise all key ML concepts, at least at the basic level. This includes unsupervised, supervised learning, Neural networks, decision trees, RL and popular models.
