Thank you

Hope it helps you.

Follow the standard books with GATE syllabus in preparation and thereafter solve all previous year questions of CSE to get the idea of topics. Make sure you have completed the syllabus before your exam to avoid anxiety in last days This way you do good in the practice exams as well as gear yourself up for the main target GATE !

Here is the syllabus with weightage topics hope this is helpful to you
