Is GATE syllubus is enough for BSNL-JTO exam in section1 and 2

Actually GATE exam covers full B.Tech syllabus.Not only JTO ,but it covers all india based competitive exams syllabus also.

All the best.

hi!

BSNL JTO exam syllabus is different from GATE. Actually JTO exam syllabus is less than the GATE syllabus.

You can find the detailed syllabus of BSNL JTO section 1 & section 2 exam for telecom, civil & electrical engineering branch by following the link below:

hey hi
the syllabus for GATE is more when compared to BSNL JTO.
so GATE preparations would be sufficient enough.
all the best

I think prepare technical paper as of gate standard..........and then look into for general awareness,reasoning better............here are some few papers related to bsnl,jto

yes friend concerning technical portion gate syllabus is enough to cover jto if you are from electronics stream

in case of other sream you need to study

all the best

hi..
the syllabus is very less in jto compared to gate,...you dont have to study so muc for jto..


good luck

Yes , it is enough because GATE exam covers all the topics of your graduation.

in case candidate are selected both GATE and JTO . so which are prefer better.

which is more preferable it will depend on the personal interest.

JTO and GATE is two totally different examination. after JTO you will be able to do job in BSNL.

but after qualifying GATE you will get scholarship if you go for further study.

now if anyone crack both the examination then he should decide what he want. if he want to do job them JTO is preferable but if he want to do further study then GATE s preferable.

but i think always higher study is preferable. now if his GATE score is good enough and if he is able to take admission in good institution then i think he should go for further study. also he can join in good job with his GATE score.

Dear friend,

Gate exam is enough for BSNL JTO preparation because it covers full syllabus of BTech/BE. the syllabus for JTO exam is mentioned in the given below link

http://www.gjtutorial.com/news/2009/...-officer-exam/

ALL THE BEST

Dear Friend

GATE Syllabus is okay for BSNL JTO Exam

*Graduate Aptitude Test for Engineering is the Basic portion for all PSU Exam,So prepare well and go through more GATE and DRDO Question paper

*It basically consists of three Section

*Two Engineering Stream
*Aptitude Section

*If you get good Mark in Technical Test you can easily selected,For Aptitude concentrate on R.S.Agarwal Book

*For Technical Paper go through PSU Amity Publisher SuccessCD and G K Publisher

*Heavy Hard work is needed ,to get the Good Score,hardly if you prepare for 6 month you can clear the Exam

All the Best

Hello Friend,

GATE exam syllabus is very very vast if we compare with BSNL-JTO exam.
If you really prepared for GATE, then it will be very easy for you to get selected as JTO.
In JTO, The extra thing is General question which consist of 20 question.
So, Preparing for GATE exam will help you to crack easily for BSNL- JTO exam.

All the best.
Thank you.

Hello Friend,

GATE and JTO are very very different.
GATE is for higher studies and you will get a chance to pursue Masters in IIT. It is mainly for higher studies.

JTO is a Junior Technical Officer , where you will be working in BSNL.

It is totally different.
We can't say, which is better because one is a job and other for higher studies. So, it depends on the individual whether he/she want to go for work or higher studies.


All the best.

Dear friend
As i know BSNL JTO exam syllabus is very less then the GATE syllabus.But if you are preparing for the gate exam that is good but if you are preparing only for BSNL JTO exam then you can study according to its syllabus you can get syllabus of BSNL JTO from:-
http://www.gjtutorial.com
good luck..........

For the preparation of JTO, GATE syllabus is more than enough. GATE covers the entire engineering course syllabus. But this JTO is some part of that. Along with that some syllabus which you have not gone through in your engineering, you have to prepare.

Here i am providing you the link where you can get the complete and detailed syllabus of BSNL JTO exam.
www.careerquips.blogspot.com/2009/02/bsnl-jto-exam-syllabus.html

thank

is the syllabus of BSNL jto and GATE are different?

when will be the exam for BSNL jto for the year 2011-12

hi friend,

Gate syllabus is enough for JTO exam. GATE syllabus is some what high than JTO

The syllabus for JTO is

A. Engineering Stream Section - I
B. Engineering Stream Section - II
C. General Ability Test Section - III

for section1 and section2 you have just study the your degree subjects.

for section 3 you have to study R.s agarwal book

I came from a village from a small school and college
did not have basics properly
so HOW CAN I IMPROVE IN BASICS................
SO AS TO CRACK OR GET INTO IIT THROUGH GATE........................



can u give me suggestion in this yar????????????????

what are posts available now?can students in btech final year apply for these posts.
