Q:

What is your Greatest Success?

Answer

This is a good question to highlight your achievements. Don't be smug or arrogant about the success of a project, especially if it was a team effort. You need to give credit to the team, too. You could say what you contributed to the total project and also give credit to others that helped in your success. Don't be overly modest, either.Here are some pointers:

1. Pick something that was clearly a success and highlight your skills.

2. Pick something recent. If you pick something twenty years ago, they are going to wonder what you have done lately.

3. Pick something important. You may have succeeded in many projects that are not that significant.

4. Pick something easy to explain. If complicated, give the short version.

5. Be sure to explain what you learned from this success.

Q:

A coin is tossed twice if the coin shows head it is tossed again but if it shows a tail then a die is tossed. If 8 possible outcomes are equally likely. Find the probability that the die shows a number greater than 4, if it is known that the first throw of the coin results in a tail

A) 1/3	B) 2/3
C) 2/5	D) 4/15

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1/3

Explanation:

Here Sample space S = { HH, HT, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6 }

Let A be the event that the die shows a number greater than 4 and B be the event that the first throw of the coin results in a tail then,

A = { T5, T6 }

B = { T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6 }

Therefore, Required probability = $P (\frac{A}{B}) = \frac{P (A \cap B)}{P (B)} = \frac{\frac{2}{8}}{\frac{6}{8}} = \frac{1}{3}$
