Preparation Tip

Tip 1 : For Morgan Stanley specifically, OS fundamentals are absolutely important, as they ask very deep OS based questions in interviews.
Tip 2 : For other core subjects, OOPS implementation is very crucial as they check DSA along with OOPS in all rounds.
Tip 3 : For the OA, hard level questions of backtracking, trees (BSTs) and questions on two-pointer and sliding window algorithm are repeatedly asked.
Tip 4 : Morgan Stanley has a very high CGPA cutoff for on campus placement (for example: 9.1+), so if you are aiming to crack Morgan Stanley you must pay attention to your CGPA as well.
