    STEP-1. Since there are 8 people sitting, let usdraw a circle with 8 points/seats/people. All arefacing to the center

    STEP-2. From the information we know that His fourth to the left of B and second to the rightof F. Let us mark accordingly

    These 3 seats are confirmed and therefore let usdraw a circle on them.

    Note that, since everyone is facing to the centerof the table, to the right = anti-clockwise and tothe left = clock wise

    Seating Arrangement30 out of 32 Bank PO Exams held in the last 5 years had 5 to 6 questions each based on SeatingArrangement.

Given below is a model question, followed by its solutions in very simple meth-ods. This example will give you a very clear idea on how to solve Seating Arrangement questions.

    Let us see how to solve the above question: It is difficult to solve the circular-arrangementwithout drawing a diagram.Therefore the first thing to do is draw a diagram (here, it is a circle)

    Directions : Study the following informationcarefully and answer the questions givenbelow:

    A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting around acircle facing the centre. H is fourth to the left of Band second to the right of F. A is third to the left ofC, who is not an immediate neighbour of F. G issecond to the left of A. D is second to the right ofE.Questions :1. Who is on the immediate right of F?(1) H (2) A (3) G(4) Data inadequate (5) None of these

    2. Who is third to the left of A?(1) C (2) F (3) B(4) Data inadequate (5) None of these

    3. In which of the following pairs is the first per-son sitting on the immediate left of the secondperson?(1) EH (2) CE (3) AF(4) DB (5) None of these

    4. Which of the following pairs represents the im-mediate neighbours of E?(1) DH (2) HC (3) CA(4) Data inadequate (5) None of these

    5. Who is on the immediate right of H?(1) E (2) C (3) H(4) Data inadequate (5) None of these

    STEP-3 Our next clue is that A is third to the left of C, who is not an immediate neighbour of F.

    Since C is not an immediate neighbour ofF, C has to sit in one of these 3 seats

    Since A is third to the left of C, this isthe only place for C

    And this is the place of A

    STEP-4. Let us take the last 2 clues, G is second to the left of A. D is second to the right of E.

    G is second to the left of A, obviously this isthe seat of G

    Only 2 seats are left and D is second to theright of E. Naturally their seats has to belike this

    How to Solve this Question ?

    Now let us discuss with another type of Seating Arrangement. Infact most of the Bank PO examshave asked this type of Seating Arrangement. Here the difference is that, alongwith the people weneed to identify their profession also. See the example given below:

  • Bank PO Exams -Work Book 5JTS Institute

    JTS Institute

    STEP -4. Take the next clue: S is the cricketer is sitting exactly between T and P.

    S & P cannot sit to the left of T because O isalready sitting there. Thus P has to be thepainter, sitting here

    S the cricketer is sitting exactly between Tand P

    Since P is the painter, we can concludethat R is the shop keeper
