One of my friends graduated from NIT Trichy and here’s what I got to know from him. According to him, only clearing the CPC test allows you to attend the campus placements.
Generally, 7 to 9 out of 10 students clear the test. But if one fails, he/she might lose the chance of attending the first 2 to 4 companies coming for placements. However, he/she may be allowed for the rest of the placements.
The test contains questions on both technical and non-technical topics and is generally easy. So make sure to prepare yourself and practice quantum and reasoning, as the students get stuck in this portion, majorly. There will be mock interviews and GD sessions, do take part in all these as these will brush up your skills.
