Sir/Mam, can I will be able to crack gate 2021 by doing self study without any coaching material? I m in 3rd year and not started my preparation yet .

Hello there!

Greetings!

Yes dear you can of course clear gate without coaching.  It all depends upon the amount of effort you put in . You will be amazed to know that most of the GATE TOPPERS are those students who don't  not opt for coaching. Since you don't want to join coaching and want to prepare by self study then you should gate preparation as soon as possible now. By being an early bird in terms of preparation, you will have a lot of time to study the syllabus in detail while indulging in extra books for more information. Another advantage of starting the preparation early is that enough time will be available for revision. It is to be noted that revision is important since it will allow you to keep whatever has been studied fresh. Divide each day and set hours for different subjects and topics. Remember to switch up the topics to avoid making the study process monotonous. You can attempt online test series and mock tests by coaching institutes or other mediums. Since the GATE mock test will be similar to the real examination, you will be able to get familiar with how the exam will be conducted by the authorities. The type of questions that can be asked will also made known through the mock test. By practicing using the mock tests regularly, you will certainly have an edge over those who do not.

thankyou
