Direction : PQR Ltd. Bank is recruiting Senior Managers for its 50 branches in Punjab. There are some requirements for any willing candidate to fulfil, else he/she will be rejected.
The following conditions must be satisfied by the applicant:
(i) The candidate must have passed class 12th with minimum 70% marks.
(ii) The candidate must have scored minimum 60% in graduation.
(iii) The candidate must have scored minimum 65% in MBA.
(iv) The candidate's age must be between 25 years and 30 years as on 1st March 2016.
Anoop was born on 15th July 2005. He obtained 70% in graduation. He scored 70% in MBA and obtained 75% marks in 12th.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → If the candidate is to be rejected
A candidate is selected only if he meets every one of the four conditions; failing even one means rejection. Anoop’s details are checked condition by condition:
Class 12th: 75%, against a minimum of 70% — met
Graduation: 70%, against a minimum of 60% — met
MBA: 70%, against a minimum of 65% — met
Age on 1 March 2016: born on 15 July 2005, he turns 11 only in July 2016, so he is 10 years old — far below 25, so not met
The age condition fails, so Anoop is rejected, whatever his marks.
