PREFCE It is an immense pleasure to present topic wise previous years solved paper of Engineering Services Exam. This booklet has come out after long observation and detailed interaction with the students preparing for Engineering Services Exam and includes detailed explanation to all questions. The approach has been to provide explanation in such a way that just by going through the solutions, students will be able to understand the basic concepts and will apply these concepts in solving other questions that might be asked in future exams. Engineering Services Exam is a gateway to a immensly satisfying and high exposure job in engineering sector. The exposure to challenges and opportunities of leading the diverse field of engineering has been the main reason for students opting for this service as compared to others. To facilitate selection into these services, availability of arithmetic solution to previous year paper is the need of the day. Towards this end this book becomes indispensable.
