Following are the points which differentiate the interviews conducted by BARC from others:

Following are the points which differentiate the interviews conducted by BARC from others:


• Very long duration approximately 25 min to 30 min.
• Asking in depth concepts
• You need to tell your 5 favourite subjects
• Questions can be asked beyond these subjects too
• You need to use the board and derive some expression if required
• Approach is checked instead of the knowledge
• Even if you give wrong answer but have correct approach, you may get selected
• Simple question is asked where thinking is required.
• Difficulty level of the questions keep on increasing and you need to have divergent thinking for answering the question.
• You need to follow the approach instead of bothering about the answer
• Sometime you will be asked only two questions in entire one hour of interview but related questions will be asked.

BARC Interview Strategy
Many students ask this question. Students think that reading some different books will help them developing the concepts being asked in the BARC interview. Actually, it is not true. Concepts learned from any book will be sufficient if you have done these properly. Questions asked will be simple but requiring the thinking. So, the best way to learn the swimming is start swimming.
