    • Part A – 1 mark for one question.
    • Part B – 3 marks for one question.
    • All questions had negative marking on wrong answer.
    • Negative marking -1/3 mark of the total mark(s) allotted for the a particular question.
    • The whole paper had only technical questions. No quantitative, No reasoning, No verbal or non-verbal questions were asked. It was a fully technical paper.


    As far as I know NIC Does lot of Maintenance/Creating Govt. Websites . So we can except questions in Web technologies
    and Databases.


    NIC Exam syllabus --


    Data structures: Notion of abstract data types, Stack, Queue, List, Set, String, Tree, Binary search tree, Heap, Graph;


    Programming Methodology: C programming, Program control (iteration, recursion, Functions), Scope, Binding, Parameter passing, Elementary concepts of Object oriented, Functional and Logic Programming;


    Algorithms for problem solving: Tree and graph traversals, Connected components, Spanning trees, Shortest paths; hashing, Sorting, Searching; Design techniques (Greedy, Dynamic Programming, Divide-and-conquer);


    Compiler Design: Lexical analysis, Parsing, Syntax directed translation, Runtime environment, Code generation, Linking (static and dynamic); Operating Systems : Classical concepts (concurrency, synchronization, deadlock), Processes, threads and Inter-process communication, CPU scheduling, Memory management, File systems, I/O systems, Protection and security.


    Computer Networks: ISO/OSI stack, sliding window protocol, LAN Technologies (Ethernet, Token ring), TCP/UDP, IP, Basic concepts of switches, gateways, and routers COMPUTER HARDWARE


    Digital Logic: Logic functions, Minimization, Design and synthesis of Combinational and Sequential circuits; Number representation and Computer Arithmetic (fixed and floating point);


    Computer Organization: Machine instructions and addressing modes, ALU and Data-path, hardwired and micro-programmed control, Memory interface, I/O interface (Interrupt and DMA mode), Serial communication interface, Instruction pipelining, Cache, main and secondary storage.

    Some of the Questions I remember from the NIC Exam--


    1) class test
    {




    public static void main(String args[]){


    short s=0x00FE;
    byte b=(byte)s;


    System.out.println("b is" +b);




    }




    } Answer is -2 I have executed this.


    2) Average waiting time question from Operating systems.


    3) Select * FROM customers where customer_name like '_%cal'


    4 options to choose what exactly the meaning of the above
    statement.


    4) for(i=0;i<=32767;i++)


    options
    a)Infinite loop b)compiler error some other options


    5) One question From DBMS to find whether


    read(a,t)
    t=t+100;
    write t;
    read(b,t)
    .........


    and some thing like this and asked to find whether
    serializable or nonserializable or non-serializable like
    that. I think this is from Elmasri navathe DBMS text


    6) Data link layer a) routing


    Network layer b) Finding errors
    physical layer


    We have to match the layer and its corresponding matching
    functionality


    75 questions for 1 mark, 25 questions * 3 = question paper
    pattern
