Complete Syllabus: It is crucial that the candidates have carefully checked entire syllabus of the chosen discipline and have completed a major part of it by now. All the important topics must have been covered as of now. The Syllabus of GATE is vast and it is expected that sincere students must have finished it, and are in process of revising it now.
Dedicated Study Hours: The number of hours dedicated for serious studies depends on student to student. However, interviews done with toppers reveal that most of them devoted a large amount of time for GATE preparation especially in the last one month. On an average, 8-10 hours of rigorous studies should be devoted during the one month preceding the exam.
Rigorous Practice: Test-takers must understand that practice is the key to success. They must solve GATE sample papers and previous years’ question papers as many as possible to be self-reliant about attempting the actual exam. With this, they can also analyse their strong and weak areas. The focus should be on strengthening the weak areas.
Solve Mock Tests: Solving GATE Mock Test is an effective way of getting familiarised with the online exam. This way, they can easily solve the actual test as it will a simulation of mock test. Candidates are advised to attempt as many mock tests as possible.
Use of Virtual Calculator: From 2016 onwards, virtual calculator, an online calculator, has been introduced in GATE. Candidates will not be allowed to carry a physical calculator to the exam hall. They will have to use the virtual calculator for doing all calculations. They must practise on this calculator in order to familarize themselves, as it will help in saving their calculation time during the exam.
