TCS NQT — what actually appearsOpen the notes

1,401 past questions, classified into 155 sub-types

Study in the order the marks are in.

Most TCS prep gives every topic the same weight. This does not. Every topic below is ranked by how many questions it actually contributed across eleven past papers, a PYQ repository and two question banks.

Numerical is the largest section and the one candidates run out of time on. Reasoning is the smallest and the one they call easy — which makes it the best marks per hour in the paper.

What you get

Notes, questions, and code that compiles

838 practice questions, every one solved

Grouped by topic and ordered by the same weights above, so the first thing you open is the thing worth most.

62 coding problems in Java

Each with a brute-force solution, an optimal one, the complexity of both, and the edge case that fails the hidden tests. All 115 solutions compile under Java 20 and pass 87 assertions.

Reports from people who sat it in 2026

Sentence completion has no options — you type one word. Simple Interest came up five or six times a slot. Trees and heaps are in the coding section now. Read from students who walked out and posted the same day.

The mistakes that fail hidden test cases

A trailing space failed a whole slot on 28 June. The class name has to match. Scanner.nextInt() loses questions when the input arrives comma-separated. Documented from the people it happened to.
