• First of all go through the syllabus :- Analyzing syllabus will help you to understand about the important subjects and pattern of GATE exam.

• Make your own strategy :-You can break your syllabus into sub-categories in each subject . It will help you to prioritize subjects and important topics in each subject .There are few subjects which are easier to score, like Digital Logic,Mathematics and Attitude. These three subjects cover 25-28% of complete GATE paper. Try not to leave these subjects uncovered as they are high scoring and will help to boost your rank .

• Make a routine or a time table and religiously follow it. You need to devote a fixed number of hours for your GATE preparation and complete it daily; remember, consistency is a compulsion here.

• Revise :- You need to revise the concepts again and again as syllabus is wide and there are chances of forgetting concepts , so you can make short notes in order to revise quickly

• Solve previous year question papers and mock test papers ;- You should solve these , it will give you idea of types of questions asked and their difficulty level and will help you a lot.
