Hello Hari,

All these things are good for you & your engineering course.
But I am going to tell you a bitter truth, What if you do your engineering & all other things good but fail to score qualifying marks in GATE year by year.
GATE AIR 1 will get call from all PSUs & one who has many certificates at their graduation level but do not qualify GATE will not get call from any PSU.
What I want to say give first preference to your GATE exam or any other exam for which you are preparing.
Now decision is yours.

Hello Mayank,

1. Almost B Tech & GATE syllabus are same.
Why almost because different-different university follow different-different syllabus.
GATE Syllabus : http://gate2016.info/gate-paper-pattern-syllabus/
2. Start you gate preparation as soon as possible.
Prepare semester subjects as per GATE syllabus like in your X semester you are going to study 3 subjects which are mentioned in GATE syllabus.
So prepare those three subjects as per GATE syllabus too and solve previous years questions of GATE and join subject wise test series of that subject.
3. If you study GATE subjects along with semester subjects you will automatically not require additional coaching at the last.
4. Coaching is not compulsory for any exam. Its upto you to join coaching or not.
5. Standard books mean which is free from errors and written based on authentic data.

First of all it is good to know that you want to prepare for GATE exam from 3rd year of engineering.
3rd year of engineering is a good time for starting GATE exam preparation. From here if you regularly study till your GATE 2018 exam you will surely get good marks in exam.

Hello amit,

Some silly mistakes are general in nature which can be avoided by basic awareness and some by practice GATE exam in exam like environment.
Rest mistakes vary person to person. So you have notice them and rectify them at your level.
Although cut off depends upon many factors like number of candidates appear in GATE exam, difficulty level of GATE paper, number of seats in each PSUs. You can get some idea from previous years cut-offs but you can’t get some certain cut-offs. I hope you are understanding.

Hello Amit,

The main thing is you must clear your concepts. The source of info doesn’t matter but it must authentic that’s why we refer popular authors books.
What if you solve a question in GATE exam and after getting result you find that you mistakenly solves 2/3 question wrong not because of lack of knowledge but wrong knowledge.
So you may refer any source of info but checking that source of info authenticity is your responsibility.

Hello Alka,

One year with full dedication is more than enough for GATE exam preparation at home. But remember full dedication is essential. Do not waste a single minute, prepare a single formula from your GATE syllabus in this short time. If you will start using this much time you will surely get your goal achieved. I am not saying do not watch TV, do not enjoy life but remember for what you are preparing, for what you have invested your 20-21 years of education. That’s it.

Hello hament,

GATE exam is based on numerical problems mainly. Nearly 70-80% problems in GATE paper are numerical but numericals can not be solved easily if you don’t know about their base and base can only be strong by making strong your theory part. I hope you are getting my point.

Hello gaurav,

Solving only previous years questions will not ensure your good rank in GATE exam. If this happen then every one will solve only previous years papers and atleast get qualified GATE exam. Only 15%(nearly) candidates qualified GATE exam. For more details click here : http://gate2016.info/gate-guidance/gate-yearwise-analysis/
Yes if you solve previous years paper smartly then you will easily qualify GATE and also have a good chance to get good rank but for top most rank you have to study well.

Hello akash,

Don’t think about any coaching for your preparation. There are many candidates who are preparing for various examinations of all India level without taking any coaching. Just focus on GATE exam preparation and think only about what to do and how to do.

First of all you must have a book of last 20-30 years papers book completely solved so that you can have a good idea about what kind of questions GATE office asked in exam and what is the level of those questions and from which are they asked questions frequently of a particular subject. Then you have atleast one standard book of each subject.

hello sajad,

Nothing is impossible. Remember this thing. There are many things that we can not understand just in one attempt.
So practice that thing again and again you will be master in that.
Start your preparation from basics as you said your are preparing for GATE 2016 so there is very less time so you must first solve previous years papers. Because in this short period you would not be able to read all standard books and solve all problems. So try to solve previous years GATE papers atleast 20-30 years. Read related theory and do solve some problems related to that topic.

We have written lots of articles about how to prepare what to prepare. You please read them all one by one they will surely help you.

Hello Tushar,

As per given information by you I also felt that you job is the main reason of your less score in GATE exam.
There are nearly 6 months for GATE 2016 exam.
If you can take 6 months leave without affecting your job, family condition and all then take get leave.
If you can’t bcz of any reason then atleast take 2/3 day leave in a 6 day working week so that you can get 3/4 days in a week for your preparation and you would also not felt tired during those days and would be able to prepare well. As I can think after working 10 hours in a day studying for GATE exam will not boost your mind so that your analytical technique.

Hello swaroop,

If you are taking coaching than you have to study parallel with coaching.
If you are not revising your classes you are actually loosing your study. It will surely affect your last time preparation bcz when you revise these parts at last if you find any difficulty or either if you forgot something then what would you do in those last moments ?
So from now revise regularly atleast what you are studying at coaching except this you need to invest some time for your own study bcz after all you are going to take exam, coaching not instead of you.
For last 6 months preparation strategy please refer – How to prepare for GATE 2016 in 6 months? : http://gate2016.info/gate-guidance/how-to-prepare-for-gate-2016-in-6-months/

Hello Sacheen,

Thanks for being part of this initiation.
Thanks for appreciating our work.

Hello Sacheen,

There major points of consideration are here :
1. You have done M Tech
2. You have 3 year experience
3. Your job suits for preparation

First comes first, you have done M Tech so obviously you have done work hard earlier so now you just need to recall that. If you have your old notes and books then try to collect them at one place. If you still have them, First just check them if they recall you some past memories of your study then its good for your GATE 2016 preparation. If not then do not worry much nowadays there are many books and guidance available on internet and offline too.
First you need to buy some basic books like a made easy handbook in which you find all the formulas and important theory in a compact form or you can make a notebook by yourself of all important formulas and theory but it should be summarized so that you can revise it quickly during your preparation and at the last time of your preparation i.e., at the time of revision.
Second a book which contain atleast previous 20-30 years papers with solution. So that you can know what kind of preparation you need to clear GATE 2016 exam. You must have boos for each subject mentioned in the syllabus, if you don’t have then you can check this list of books for GATE 2016 : http://gate2016.info/gate-2016-books/
Always prefer standard books because they are error free and contain theoretical as well as analytical knowledge.

Hello sampath,

Actually you must first check the institute in which you are going to take admission as per your requirement. I have written a post about this.
Now you must contact to previously GATE qualified candidates around you, take guidance from facebook there are many communities there you can post your questions/queries and you can also make a local group of the students who are taking coaching with you at the same institute or other. Some students are strong in some subjects and other in some others. So you guys can help each other.

Hello Suman,

Preparation schedule varies person to person. It would b better you make your own as per your requirement, availability of time in a day and your knowledge.
However we can give you some suggestion for your preparation time table :
(1) make plan as per time availability in a day for study exclude other times like daily routine work etc.
(2) Always study in three level anything :
1. easy
2. medium
3. Hard

First follow easy. Like you are going to study a chapter. Note down all the important topic from exam point of view and study introductory of every topic then move to next chapter and so on. It will not take much time and you will complete your whole syllabus at least once then medium than hard.

Make a time table for a whole day, for a week, for a month and for a year for GATE 2016. Stick to the time table. Must include time for revision in each time table.

You need to have atleast one standard book for each subject. Standard books are with correct and good information.
One previous years paper book of last 20-30 years. It will help you what kind of questions they asked in exam.

hello suresh,
Qualifying GATE exam is not so hard. You might doing some major mistake(s) during your GATE exam preparation. If you focus on some important topics of technical subjects and of mathematics and of non technical section then even you can qualify easily.

For qualifying any exam you need to study continuously and meaningful. So Make a time table for your spare time and do regular study as per that.

Feel free to ask if you need any help in future & join us @ Google+ / Facebook for getting regular updates.

For getting success you need to do hard work in right direction. So first find what you need to prepare than prepare hard.
I will not suggest you any coaching personally but you may ask this question on Facebook, quora, pagalguy etc. Actually a student should choose a coaching as per his/her requirement. So match your requirement with various coaching available and select one.
GATE 2016 will most probably organized by IISc Bangalore but now this is not about IISc or X IIT now it is more about your luck and your hard work because now GATE office uses scaling. So now prepare hard and pray to god that you get good marks after scaling.

srivarshini first of all during your preparation time always think that you would be able to qualify GATE exam with good rank and start your preparation in this way. This positive though will give you more strength and power to your preparation.
Start your preparation with solving last 20-30 years papers of GATE. It will give you a good idea about what kind of questions you are going to face in next GATE exam also it will clear you more that what you need to study from GATE syllabus with more effort n what with less.
Always read standard books bcz they are error free and written by highly educated person.
Now about 6 month plan for preparation :
1. First of all calculate your whole day time which you spend in college and daily work then make a time table for remaining time for daily, weekly and monthly study. Try to spend your maximum time in your GATE preparation.
2. Spend your 1st month in previous years papers solving then start solving more question on 1 by 1 subject basis. remember concentrate more on the topics which r asked more frequently first then prepare others.
3. The most important part you must include in your preparation is revision part. Revise what you have studied at the last of the day, week and month. It will help you in quick revision in last time in less time.

GATE syllabus is actually a bundle of what you have studied at your graduate level. Yes you need to concentrate only on the given syllabus in GATE Physics syllabus section of GATE booklet.

For physics syllabus & patter follow this link : http://gate2016.info/gate-2016-pattern-syllabus/physics-ph/

You have to prepare for both theory and numerical. For Aptitude u need to prepare separately. For Aptitude preparation follow this link : http://gate2016.info/gate-guidance/how-to-start-preparation-for-gate-2016/

Sorry for late reply. Feel free to ask if you need any help in future.

Pradeep mistakes are obvious. Everyone does but important is how less.
One of the best solution for reducing your mistakes is practice as much as possible & timely revise your notes.
For your time management you must join one or more test series of some reputed Institutes if you can.
If you can not join any coaching due to any reason than make some tests by yourself by selecting good questions from different-different books / online resources and put them in a paper same as GATE exam n solve them in same environment & time as you attended GATE. You can also contact any of you friends who has joined any test series he may help you.

Selection is matter of your dedication & approach towards GATE exam.
There are many students who have cleared GATE exam with good rank just in 2-3 months preparation.
So everything depends upon your plan for exam & your hard work.
How many hours ?
Study hours depends upon your study technique. Some students may understand a topic with in a minute some take a whole day. So make a study plan according to the syllabus for a day not according to hours of a day.
Hours doesn’t matter if you know what you need to study.
Because in this competitive world it is more important to know what not to study than what to study.

Feel free to ask if you need any help in future & join us @ Google+ / Facebook for getting regular updates.

Suggestions :
1- First of all solve 20-30 years previous years papers of GATE exam. Don’t just solve them but also understand them & solve some related question also. If you have solved all GATE previous papers than do solve problems given on last of standard books. Solve as much as possible questions.
2. Always read standard books.
3. Join some good test series for your better performance in GATE exam. It will prepare you for exam like environment.

Time Management :
1- You must have more time than 1-2 hours. How ?
Study at home and note down all the important topics & Formulas in a note book/notebook & revise them during office time whenever you find yourself free. Utilize your free time as much as possible.
2- Study on regular basic don’t waste a single day. Study less or more but study daily it will keep you connected to your study.
