Persons sitting in a circle facing at the centre:
Seated to the left = Take clockwise direction
Seated to the right = Take anticlockwise direction
Persons sitting in a circle facing away from the centre:
Seated to the left = Take anticlockwise direction
Seated to the Right = Take clockwise direction
Example:
A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting
around a circle facing the centre.
a) E is to the immediate right of
A, who is second to the right
of G.
b) D is not an immediate neighbour of C or H.

Seating arrangement is one of the
important topics in the ongoing SBI
clerical exams.
There are various models in the
seating arrangement.
* Single row arrangement
* Double row arrangement
* Circular arrangement/ Rectangular arrangement
Irrespective of the models, the
following points to be noted in order
to solve the questions easily.
1. Read the entire puzzle and
understand the statements correctly
2. Identify the statements that
give definite information
For instance let us take three
statements and evaluate:
Statement (a): A is to the left of B.
The data in the statement is basic
but not definite as the statement
ONLY says that A is to the left of B.
but, it does not specify where A is
located from B.
Statement (b): A is second to the left
of B. The data in the statement is definite as it clearly states that A is placed
second to the left of B.
Statement (c): T is between Q who
plays football and P in order of seating in a row.
It can be understood as 'T is
between Q and P. So, they may be
seated as QTP or PTQ (so, the data is
not definite) and 'Q plays football'.
3. Search for the connecting
information
4. Figure out the seating arrangement by clearly identifying the
directions.
Persons sitting in a row all facing same direction:
second to the left of H.
Now, let us discuss how to understand the statements correctly:
The meaning of the statement (a):
E is to the immediate right of A. A is
second to the right of G.
The meaning of the statement (c):
F is third to the right of C. F is second to the left of H.
Normally, we will be tempted to
solve the question by picking up
point by point from first. But, that is
not correct. We should be careful in
selecting the points to solve the puzzle by searching for definite information. Here, though (a) and (c) are
definite points, we have to pick up
(c) first as this point is connected to
the point (b) (as 'C' and 'H' are discussed in both the points). In case,
we take point (a) it is difficult to
solve the question.
