Tips and Tricks to Crack GATE 2025
To overcome such circumstances here are some important tips which would help any GATE aspirant in their preparations :
1. Understanding the 2025 GATE Syllabus
A Key Step in Effective Exam Preparation
First of all you need to know well about your syllabus of the subject in which paper you are going to attend GATE paper for year 2025.
2. Comprehensive Preparation Strategy for GATE:
Balancing Depth and Breadth in Topic Coverage
Read each topic as given in GATE syllabus of the subject very carefully. Do not leave any topic atleast read basic of all topics.
Although GATE paper need deep knowledge of subject but sometimes mare knowledge can be useful in some easy questions but don’t do it with a large number of topics otherwise it will cut your marks and as well as your rank. So try to prepare all topics very well.
From 2014 there are two kinds of question you will face in GATE examination. First objective type and second numerical answer type.
In objective type questions you have to select one option out of given options. In numerical answer type questions you have to answer using a virtual keypad.
In numerical answer type questions there would be no any option you have to solve question completely and answer like we solve papers in our university examinations. GATE exam consists of 23 papers. A candidate can appear any one of these papers.
3. Next Steps after Syllabus Review:
Choosing the Right Study Resources for GATE Exam Preparation
After reading complete syllabus very well you have to take a guide either you can join any coaching or if you can’t join coaching than you should buy any book which contain 10-20 previous years papers so that you can know what kind of questions being asked in GATE examinations.
If you need GATE papers than you can download them from GATE previous years papers section.
4. Strategizing Your Study Plan
Assessing Strengths and Weaknesses in GATE Subjects for Balanced Preparation
Candidates after reading the syllabus completely you should make a list in which subjects you are good, average and poor.
Give more time to subjects in which you are poor because poor subjects will require more attention from you and will take more time than your commanding subjects.
On the other hand give some time daily to your commanding subjects too so that they don’t washout from your mind after a whole one year of preparations.
5. Effective Time Management
Creating a Topic-Wise Schedule for Comprehensive GATE Preparation and Revision
Now make one another list of topics for each subject and decide limited time for each topic and try to complete that particular topic in that particular time period.
If you would able to do this than you would complete your whole GATE syllabus on time and you would have plenty of time to last time preparations as well as revisions.
As said “Practice makes man perfect” so practice as much as possible. This technique will save you in your last time preparation and help to overcome from last time confusions.
Anyhow if you were not able to complete the whole syllabus than you must be master in those topics which you did. Make sure about it from start of your preparation. Candidate can prepare subjects first which are more scoring at start.
This technique will help you to rid of last time tension of scoring study. You can also choose some topics from each subject which more frequently asked in previous years and prepare them first.
If you need guidance and help you may join a coaching institute that will give you ready made study guidance but choose coaching which has good academic record in previous years and has experienced faculty.
For not being pressurize in last time than make a time table and prepare according to that. If you want to join coaching than join it at start not in mid it will not help you much.
We will update here time to time. You guys check this post regularly.
All the best for GATE 2025 🙂

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.

I’m Aditya from Hyderabad. First of all, I appreciate you for providing useful information regarding GATE exam.
I have completed my graduation in 2014 from Electrical background with an aggregate of 69%. I made my first attempt in 2014 but couldn’t crack the exam.
After my Engg, I was in job search for nearly 3 months. Luckily, I’ve got placed in Solar company but couldn’t afford with the salary provided.
In this way, I’ve wasted one precious year of 2015 and so couldn’t attempt GATE exam.
As days passed on, I’ve got an offer where I am presently working as a Maintenance Engineer in a company from March 2015. I will be getting nearly 3-4 hrs for preparation.
Actually, my shifts are rotational on daily basis. I’m willing to attempt GATE 2016 in any way.
Kindly, request you to reply me how can I manage my time so that I can achieve my best in GATE. I’m an average student and interested in Power systems and Control systems.
And finally, I wish you for a grand success in future.
