Mr. Taneja made students do a faint level-assessment which provided them with a feedback based on their current level as to what should be the level of preparation for the companies they are aiming at. He provided various references of the course material to study and most importantly, laid the foundation for the approach to be followed while solving questions in the interviews as well as in the written exam.

Mr. Singh emphasized on developing the thought process to crack questions on algorithms and puzzles. He explained various approaches that are related to competitive exams such as solving C, C++ and Java based problem sets. He also explained about solving Design Patterns and finding multiple alternatives for solving it which helps in developing the thought process. Mr. Singh emphasised more on mathematical justification and logic behind every step in the puzzle which has a major contribution in the total score given to the question.
