how to prepare for gate in ece branch without taking any coaching from coaching centre presently i m in btech 3 year..
thanku
urs guidance and suggestion is highly obliged for me....

hi...
as you are 3rd year start reading subjects of 2nd year and 3rd year perfectly and then do aptitude ,the preferred book is R.S.AGARWAL and then while you enter into final year start reading your final year subjects at last at the time of gate exam you will be able to answer the subject questions as well as aptitude...and thus go and write your gate...........


all the best

how to get good results in gate exam as it is 3 months far away by self study . am an ece student.

which books are mostly preferred of an individual subjects & is it sufficient to read quantitative aptitude of an R.Saggarwal

For(kas) in kashmir ,what is the materail i have to prepare?

specify text books for gate in ece branch

how to prepare in 3rd year student of ece branch and when a student are not clear previous paper then they are sit or prepare the gate exam.

when a students are not clear the previous semsiter paper then they are sit or prepare the gate exam and who is better books for gate exam in 3rd year stutends when a not prepare the gate exam and not take a help the cocahing center

i am in 3rd year ECE.suggest a plan for appearing for GATE2014

How to prepare for gate i m in second year ECE and what is the right time for coaching what are the main subjects to concentrate and if possible give some suggestions to get the best rank in gate ?

you are in 3rd year you have very valuable time for the preparation of GATE exam.it is not necessary to take the coaching if you prepare your course subject with very clear concept then you will be able the clear the GATE exam but the condition is you have to be serious about your study and there is a book also available for GATE preparation solve the question from that book also.
Be regular...

General Aptitude Test for Engineering is considered as one of the toughest exams in India. It is purely because of huge competition as thousands of candidates appear for the exam. For those who don't know, GATE exam is conducted for admission in M.Tech courses.

Your timing for asking this question is perfect. Currently you are in 3rd year of B.Tech. You would be able to appear in GATE exam next year (4th year of B.Tech). If you are interested in taking GATE exam in 4th year, I would recommend to start preparing for at least 6-8 months.

This way you would not put a lot of strain on yourself at the same time would give enough time to concertrate of 4th year's studies. It is important to give yourself fair bit of time to prepare for the GATE Exam especially when you are not taking coaching classes.

First thing a candidate should know is that there is no percentage requirement to appear in GATE. All you need is B.Tech degree.

There are total of 65 questions in GATE of 100 marks.

General Aptitude - 10 Questions - 15 Marks

Engineering Mathematics - 11 Questions - 15 Marks

Your Engineering Subject - - 44 Questions - 70 Marks

The questions related to the Engineering mathematics and General Aptitude carry more importance. Therefore you should put extra effort to prepare for these questions.


There are interlinked questions in GATE Exam. What this means is to solve the second question, you would have to solve the first question.


It is important to know that there is negative marking in the GATE Exam, however not on the numerical type questions. For other questions 1/3 mark would be deducted for 1 mark questions while 2/3 would be deducted for 2 marks question.


Since you are preparing for the exam by yourself, try to get as many question papers of previous years as possible. Try to solve them after regular period of studies like once a week or two week in the same duration which you would be give for GATE Exam. Try to see what are the weak links and put extra efforts for such questions.


You would also have to buy some books related to GATE Exam for ECE. Such books would help you in preparations. Some recommendations are:

General Aptitude & Mathematics - G. K. Publications Pvt. Ltd

GATE Electronics And Communication Engineering: Solved Papers - Manish Purbey

Electronics And Communication Engineering Solved Paper - G. K. Publications Pvt. Ltd

Other thing you can do is take the mock tests available online and check your performance. It is another good way to check which are the areas where you need more help.


You should create a timetable and follow it properly. Give yourself realistic time to prepare for each subject.

Qualifying Marks

General - 25 Marks

OBC - 22.5

SC/ST/PD - 16.67

DEAR,

gate is GRADUATE APTITUDE TEST IN ENGINEERING

it is the toughest post graduate entrance exam held in our country

the exam is organize by IIT'S to select candidates based upon merit list

truly saying that 3rd year is the best time to prepare for this exam


NOW YOU HAVE ASK TIPS ,SO SOME ARE AS:

--stick to basics

--practice

--memorize power should increase

--stay away from distraction

--have faith in yourself

--pray GOD

--give your maximum time to study

--keep yourself determined

--TRY TO SOLVE PREVIOUS YEARS QUESTION PAPERS
as much as possible

for gate preparation switch to RC KANODIA this book really help you to clear GATE EXAM without any coaching but purchase of new edition


"GATE EXAM IS THE GATEWAY TO THE BEAUTIFUL FUTURE"


good luck

sir,i am not too sound in my basics, and i need your advise how to start preparing for GATE?Will a postal study course help me?My branch is Ece.which topics do i need to focus to atleast reach the cutoff?

Iam too weak in basics and other b tech subjects and now persuing my 3 year 2sem pls advice me books such that I cn get grip over the subjects without any coaching

Can i get gate books through pdf?

how to prepare for gate in last six months? what should be strategy to obtain maximum marks?

all the topics of gate will be covered in your b.tech. what you need to do is get a good grip on the gate syllabus and solve the previous gate question papers.
you can get your doubts clarified by your college faculty concerned to the subject or in the internet. all you need to do is improve your levels of accuracy and speed in solving. along with the technical part you need to also concentrate on logical reasoning and aptitude areas. the syllabus for gate is as follows:

Respected Sir/Madam,nw i hv cmpltd my b'tech in ECE brnch & in my final year i hv alrdy aperd d GATE exam bt 4 dat i was nither preprd nor follow any books that'swhy i got vry ngligble mrk bt nw i wnt 2 mke myslfe fully prepred 4 d nxt GATE exam n 2 achve d bst result ,so kindly gv me d best solution dat cn mke me confident to appear d GATE exam without tkng any coaching 4m any coaching center?

what is last year Qualifying Marks for SC student?

hi, your studying 3rd year so first you must read 2nd year subjects and then 3rd year subjects. You must more concentrate on aptitude and mathematics mainly ranks differ these subjects. Normally the GATE exam will conduct on february 4th year students of b.tech. And also must collect the previous years GATE question papers try to solve it. (all the best)
