Plz suggest me the method of preparation for gate xam

Hi..

GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) has seen a rise in the number of applicants over the recent past, mainly due to the mandating of a valid GATE score by PSU’s. Clearing GATE with a good rank opens up an ocean of possibilities for a candidate. A good rank can fetch you a job at a PSU, or a Masters Degree (M.Tech., M.E., M.S. etc). But to crack the exam,it is essential to know how to prepare for GATE exam. Because a well-planned strategy helps you to achieve your goals.
I have tried to summarize the major areas which prove to be crucial in the preparation of GATE. However, the list is not exhaustive. The following tips will help you to know that how to prepare for GATE.
Motivation: An essential requirement to crack any exam. You need to have the confidence that you can crack the exam, and you are ready to do hard work for that. It is the first fundamental part well to known by you when you are going to know how to prepare for gate exam.
Study Material: Very basic requirement. Usually, a coaching provides you the relevant study material or books for GATE preparation, which is in coherence with the syllabus.Reading out all the books may not prove to be as beneficial from the point of clearing the exam.
Coaching: If you have enrolled in a coaching, well and good. If not, it’s nothing to worry about. The coachings surely provide you a relevant direction and study material, at the end of the day what matters the most is YOUR hard work.
Study Everything: In the initial stages, make sure you study everything at your coaching with concentration.College curriculum is similar to GATE pattern too, if you pay attention at the college too, that is even more beneficial.
Revise and Repeat: Revise daily.That way it won’t look much of a burden. And you’ll feel the increase in the ability to retain facts.
Observe: Arrange the previous year papers o

Exam Pattern and Marking Scheme:First is the pattern of exam, this test paper is online with use of virtual calculator there will be 65 questions from which 30 questions will be one mark and rest 35 will be of two marks in total 100 marks. Marks is approximately distributed as 15 marks from general aptitude, 15 marks from engineering mathematics and rest 70 marks from core subjects. Now there will be two types of questions, objective types and numerical answer questions for previous year paper.

GATE 2018 Syllabus

Let's see overview of syllabus. Syllabus of mechanical engineering is divided in three section.

Section 1: Applied Mechanics and Design

• Engineering Mechanics.
• Strength of Materials
• Theory of Machines and Vibration
• Machine Design

Section 2: Fluid Mechanics and Thermal Sciences

I would suggest you to follow the given tips to make yourself well prepared for the exam-

You should understand the syllabus properly, you must go through the section-wise and topic-wise syllabus of your chosen branch in order to know what all you have to study and what to avoid. Without referring to the syllabus or preparing without any clue will ultimately lead to wastage of time.

Selection of good reference books is also very important, because if you go in the market to buy Gate Books then you will find there are plenty of books available Instead choose all those books that cover the topics in detail including the basic concepts. Choose the ones that you can understand and study within the limited time you have.

You should follow the preparation plan properly, the preparation plan that you must have prepared by now has to be followed with complete dedication. Moreover, the plan should be realistic and achievable.

You should not forget to solve the sample papers, practising these sample papers will give you an edge over the other examinees.

Avoid all distractions and take good care of yourself, this period of preparation is the time to focus on your studies only, as all the other things can wait. Don’t let any distraction come in your way during GATE preparation.

Plan Your Study To Knockout the Exam

Planning your study after analysing previous years’ papers

You must plan your study after taking the analysis of previous years’ GATE papers. This will give you the idea that which subject usually has the highest weightage in GATE exam and about the topics asked from the particular subject most. After the analysis of previous years papers, you will be able to make the list of topics to be studied on the priority basis. You also will be able to prepare time schedule to study individual topics.

Prefer standard books for GATE

Make an extensive search for standard books in the library and go for the best ones. Try to cover complete syllabus within the time you have (5 or 6 months). If it isn't possible, get expertise in the topics you have studied.

Group study is a great comrade

Group study is one of the best ways for preparation of GATE. Assign a few sections/topics to your friend and you focus on the remaining. Then have a brief session and discussion and exchange what both of you have studied/gained. This not only saves your time and efforts but also enhances understanding on the topics/concepts.

Solve the previous years' GATE papers

Solve previous years' GATE papers to understand what the actual paper would be like. It also brushes up your mind and tells you the weaknesses in the subject knowledge. So try to solve as many test papers as you can. This is the best way to prepare and get through the GATE.

Practice Sets is a great platform to check yourself

Attempt all the 65 questions given in a practice set and then check yourself step by step by considering the answer with solutions given along with each practice set. Because, the practice sets are designed based exactly on the latest exam pattern, hence you will find your strongest and weakest points related to all sections i.e., Aptitude, Mathematics and Engineering disciplines in a particular topic. So, keep practicing and secure your success in GATE.
