The GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) syllabus for Computer Science (CS) for the 2025 exam encompasses various topics divided into three main sections: General Aptitude, Engineering Mathematics, and Core Discipline.

**General Aptitude** covers basic English grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, data interpretation, and elementary statistics. This section typically includes around 10 questions worth 15 marks.

**Engineering Mathematics** includes topics like Linear Algebra, Calculus, Differential Equations, and Probability, contributing around 10 questions worth 13 marks.

**Core Discipline** is the most extensive and includes critical areas such as:

1. **Programming and Data Structures** (8 questions, 15 marks)

2. **Computer Networks** (8 questions, 10 marks)

3. **Operating Systems** (6 questions, 9 marks)

4. **Computer Organization and Architecture** (5 questions, 8 marks)

5. **Theory of Computation** (4 questions, 6 marks)

Each of these topics is essential, and previous papers indicate varying weightage across years, so focusing on the core subjects is crucial for effective preparation.

The GATE CS syllabus is divided into two sections: General Aptitude (15 marks) and Computer Science and Information Technology (85 marks).

*General Aptitude (15 marks)*

This section covers _Verbal Aptitude_, including basic English grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. It also includes _Quantitative Aptitude_, covering data interpretation, numerical computation, and basic mathematics. Additionally, it tests _Analytical Aptitude_, with questions on deduction, induction, and numerical relations ¹.

Computer Science and Information Technology (85 marks)

This section is further divided into 10 topics:

- engineering Mathematics: Discrete mathematics, linear algebra, calculus, probability, and statistics.

- digital Logic and Design: Boolean algebra, combinational and sequential circuits, and number representations.

- computer Organization and Architecture: Machine instructions, ALU, data path, control unit, and memory hierarchy.

- programming and Data Structures: Programming in C, recursion, arrays, stacks, queues, linked lists, trees, and graphs.

- algorithms: Searching, sorting, hashing, and algorithm design techniques.

- theory of Computation: Regular expressions, finite automata, context-free grammar, and Turing machines.

- Compiler Design: Lexical analysis, parsing, syntax-directed translation, and runtime environments.

- Operating System: System calls, processes, threads, inter-process communication, concurrency, and synchronization.

- Databases: ER-model, relational model, SQL, integrity constraints, and file organization.

- Computer Networks: OSI and TCP/IP protocol stacks, packet switching, data link layer, routing protocols, and transport layer.

To prepare for the GATE CS exam, it's essential to make a proper study plan, know your strengths and weaknesses, study well, revise regularly, practice previous year's questions, and take mock tests
