sir how i can prepare for gate exam i dont know how to prepare and i am a average student plz give a tips for my preparation

hi pandu ,

thank you for approaching us . the below tips might help you in a better preparation .

• First of all you should be aware of the syllabus of GATE like important topics so that during preparation you put maximum number of hours on those topics but that doesn’t mean you will neglect the other topics because GATE is highly unpredictable these days . So you need to complete end to end syllabus.
• Just reading a topic won’t help you to have deep understanding of that topic, you have to solve different varieties of problems for that topic till you gain confidence. So basically practice as much as you can from different resources like standard books, schaum series books, Kanodia books ( lot of errors) GATE previous year questions.
• Don’t neglect Mathematics and Aptitude generally the level of questions from these are easy. Students during the preparation tend to neglect these two so don’t neglect aptitude and mathematics. Their total weightage is 30 Marks.
• My suggestion is for completing a topic or a subject refer a standard book. only one standard book is enough per subject simultaneously you can also read some hand written material of coaching institutes. You can also refer NPTEL lectures to get a basic understanding of some topics which you are unable to understand.
• Try to complete the syllabus by the end of October and start giving online test provided by coaching institutes . Through online test you will come to know about your weakness. So you can easily work on your weakness in the month of November and December. You can also give subject wise test when you are done with a particular subject so that you can check your level of preparation.
• Make a separate Copy for important formula’s and key concepts so that during the last days of GATE you can revise those topics easily.
• When you complete a particular subject and you move to a new subject than make sure you revise your previous subject from time to time. Revision is very important. Especially during last 2 months try to revise whatever you have studied everyday.
• One important thing keep yourself motivated during the entire preparation time even you are not able to solve particular topics or problems there is no need to loose self confidence.

all the best
