Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is
an examination that primarily tests the
comprehensive understanding of the candidates in
various undergraduate subjects in
Engineering/Technology/Architecture and
post-graduate level subjects in Science. The
GATE score of a candidate reflects a relative
performance level in a particular subject in the
examination across several years. The score is
used for admissions to post-graduate programs
(e.g., M.E./M.Tech/ Direct Ph.D.) in centrally
funded Indian Institutes of higher education
(i.e., Institutes which are provided with
financial assistance by MHRD and other Government
agencies).

The score is also used by some Public and Private
Sector Undertakings for employment processes in
India. Make strategies and follow them. Month
wise strategic has been mentioned that will help
GATE aspirants in preparation.    Start as early
as possible. When it comes to preparing for the
GATE, the earlier you start, the better, a great
GATE score can have a significant impact on your
professional future. June- mid October  This
is the period you should devote some time to
every topic and focus slightly more on developing
your theoretical base (roughly around 65 weight
age to theory and 35 to solving
questions/practice).

GATE exam tests your basics. Hence it is
quite essential that your concepts are crystal
clear. If you are enrolled in a GATE coaching
institute, keep studying thoroughly the subject
which is going on in the class along with
revision of a subject thats already been
completed (choose a subject for revision,
preferably, which you feel you did not understand
properly). Keep clearing your doubts with your
friends or teachers. For practice, you can solve
the material given to you by your coaching
institute or some other standard books/question
banks. Ensure that around 70-75 of the
syllabus gets covered by the end of this period.
Make short notes side by side.

Mid October-Mid December  In this period, more
weight age should be given to problem solving.
Solve as many questions as you can of the
subjects that youve already completed, apart
from completing the remaining portion of your
syllabus. By the end of this period, make sure
that your entire syllabus is completed in every
sense along with all previous years questions of
GATE. If time permits, you may also take some
part-syllabus tests during this period for
practice.
6
Mid December-January  This is probably the most
crucial period. It should be majorly devoted to
taking subject tests and full- syllabus mock
tests. Take as many tests as you can. However,
taking two subject tests for each subject and
around 15 full syllabus tests would be more than
sufficient. Try to introspect the kind of
mistakes that you are making and make sure you
dont repeat them. Identify your weak areas and
try to fill up the gaps.
7
A week before the exam  In this period you
should not stress yourself much. Keep revising
your notes and important formulae. You can also
go through the important previous years
questions of GATE. Keep decreasing the number of
hours that you study day by day. In the last
two days of this period, you can skim through the
entire syllabus on a very superficial level
keeping yourself relaxed, calm composed.
8
Usually it has been noticed that in every branch
there are 4-5 subjects which comprise of 45-50
marks totally. So you should target those
subjects firstly and once you are done with these
subjects switch on Aptitude and Engineering
Mathematics. Make a separate notebook for
formulas and just revise through that become the
most important part of GATE crack formulas.
