Welcome to ATMA Syllabus Section. Here you will find ATMA Exam Syllabus 2016, Paper Pattern, Structure and Format

ATMA Syllabus 2016:-

The Test contains Questions on three abilities or skills.  These are:

    * Analytical Reasoning Skills
    * Quantitative Skills
    * Verbal Skills

ATMA Analytical Reasoning Skills Syllabus 2016:-

The Questions on Analytical Skills examine the logical thinking abilities of a candidate.  Do remember that a particular question is less important than the reasoning task you are asked to perform.  No specialized knowledge of any particular field is required for answering the questions, and no knowledge of the terminology and conventions of formal logic is presumed.

In the questions on Analytical Skills you need to analyse the situations on which each question is based and then select the answer choice that is most appropriate response to the question.
Each set of questions or group of questions is based on a passage or set of conditions.  In answering some of the Questions, it may be useful to draw a rough diagram.  For each question, select the best answer from the choices given and darken the corresponding oval in the answer sheet.

ATMA Quantitative Skills Syllabus 2016:-

The ATMA Quantitative Skills Questions measure your ability to reason Quantitatively, solve Quantitative problems, and interpret graphic data.

Types of multiple – choice Questions include:

   1. Problem-Solving
   2. Data Sufficiency

Problem – Solving and Data Sufficiency Questions require basic knowledge of:

   1. Arithmetic
   2. Elementary algebra
   3. Commonly known concepts of Geometry

For each Question in Quantitative Skills sections, select the correct or the best of the answer choices numbered (1), (2), (3) and (4) and darken the oval corresponding to your choice in the answer sheet.
Number: All numbers are real numbers.
Figures:  Position of points, angles, regions, etc., can be assumed to be positive.
Lines drawn as straight can be assumed to be straight.
Figures that accompany questions are intended to provide information useful in answering the questions.

However, unless it is stated, a specific figure is not drawn to scale; the diagrams and figures are drawn as accurately as possible; you should solve these problems NOT by estimating sizes by sight or by measurement, but using your knowledge of mathematics.

ATMS Verbal Skills Syllabus 2016:-

The ATMA Verbal Skills sections measure your ability to read and comprehend written material in English language, to reason and evaluate arguments, and to correct written material to conform standard written English.  Because the Verbal sections include reading sections from different context areas, you may be generally familiar with some of the material, however, neither the written passages nor the questions assume detailed knowledge of the topics discussed.

Types of Multiple Choice questions used in Verbal sections include:

   1. Reading comprehension
   2. Sentence Correction
   3. Word meaning – antonyms, synonyms, analogies – your ability to recognize relationships among words and concepts, parallel relationships, etc.
   4. Sentence completions – your ability to recognize words or phrases that both logically and stylistically complete the meaning of a sentence.

In brief, the questions in Verbal Skills sections test your recognition of correct grammatical usage, vocabulary, and familiarities with words, your understanding and comprehension of the language (English) while reading and your ability to write clearly and briefly.

The test Contains 170 Questions spread over Six Sections. Each Section is timed separately. Total time of the Test is 3 hours. The questions cover Analytical Reasoning Skills, Quantitative Skills, and Verbal skills
