Hello,



Nothing is impossible in this world if you will have dedications and discipline towards your goal.
No one is an average student or brilliant students, the only difference between an average students and a brilliant students is the mindset.So, if you will have better mindset then this exam will also be easy for you.Clearing any exam requires hardwork,dedication and discipline.

First of all make a study plan and set targets for daily, weekly and monthly.
Give more importance to those topics which have more chances of having high weightage in the examination and work on your weak areas.

Having right books an sources are must for the preparation so you must have best books.You can find books for preparing from the link below

Focus on Engineering Mathematics and Aptitude Test
The following books can be referred to for Engineering Mathematics:

Engineering Mathematics by Erwin Kreyszig
Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications by Kenneth Rosen
Engineering Mathematics by BS Garewal

A good conceptual understanding will be able to help you during the examination as it will make the questions explanatory which may eventually lead to a correct answer. By having a clear understanding of the concepts, you will be able to apply the concepts accordingly to the questions and solve it instead of relying on rote memory.

Time management is the key.You have college also and you will have to take care of your health so take care of everything accordingly.

You must do revision multiple times.Analyze your preparation. After completing every mock test or solving sample papers, it is important to check and try to correct all of the wrong answers marked by you. This will ensure that you will not wrongly answer the same question next time.

hi,

see you can definitely crack gate exam, if you study smartly.  In 4 years b.tech you have studied more than 40 subjects for total of 8 semester, but the gate exam will only conducts on based on 10-12 subjects where aptitude and mathematics is common to all streams.  . for IT people you need to attempt gate from computer science engineering stream , and syllabus has similarity with IT syllabus. now, you need to make out the short notes and study the syllabus which is only for gate exam.if you start study now from this year you can definitely crack gate exam. however there is not very much psus which hire for IT recruitment, most of the students opts for masters course from cse after clearing gate. however I would suggest you to make your over all cgpa above of 7 , because sometimes mtech admission in iits your b.tech cgpa also matters if number of candidates is large.

hope it would help.
