Re: Can I prepare myself for GATE exam by self study?

Yes sure you can prepare yourself for the GATE exam. In fact its a very positive and strong thought.

So what you need to do is, keep you basic concepts very very clear. Keep the concepts of your BTech always handy and on your finger tips.

You have to revise a lot so that you dont get out of touch with the 2nd year or 3rd year course. They cover majority portion of the GATE paper.

As far as I know, You have to have a minimum 90-95 percentile in GATE to get into IITs for M Tech and also your CGPA should be more than 7.5

Its even better if your CGPA is 8 and above.

So work hard and success would follow.

Yes you can prepare for GATE by yourself.

GATE exam is not so easy and not so tough.

So what you need to do is

- Now as Aptitude portion is also there so prepare that also it will help in scoring good because aptitude questions are very simple.

So prepare well and

hello,


yes it is very well possible to get into iits through self study... you must be very much through in the subjects you are going to answer...

gate is definitely a difficult job if you are aiming for IIT's as you may not guide yourself enou8gh in order to get into the top rankings....

its clear that only top cream gets into IIT's so prepare well and get guidance about how the paper is and what is the tactics for answering the paper.....

for clearing gate the cutoff range varies every year... and for getting it into IIT's you must score above 675 on your gate score card....

Here is atypical qualitative interpretation of the GATE SCORE,

for example,

Ability Level GATE Score Range

Outstanding 800 to 1000
Excellent 675 to 800
Very good 550 to 675
Good 425 to 550
Above average 300 to 425
Average 100 to 300
Below average Below 100

ALL THE BEST

Re: Can I prepare myself for GATE exam by self study?

Yes its definately possible to do so. Actually coaching helps to keep you focused which you can easily loose if you do self study.

So if you think that you can discipline yourself properly then you should try for it. If not then better go for coaching as these days the competition is very high

And not sure about the minimum percentile but try you best to score the highest marks

Best of Luck

Hello,

As you must be knowing that Lakhs of students appear for the GATE exam every year. So an edge is needed over them to score well and get through.
I know self study is a good concept, but then in case of competitive exams, the patters are ever changing and self study is not sufficient.
Hence what is suggestible is that you join some good result oriented coaching centre where they can give you the required guidance needed to crack such exams.

The minimum percentile to get through the IIT's is around 94-97, hence a lot of hard work has to be put in.

Good Luck!

Re: Can I prepare myself for GATE exam by self study?

GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) is conducted by GATE committee at 8 centres across India on behalf of Minstry of H.R.D.,

GATE provides or prioritize candidates for doing PG in Engg, Technology, Pharma and Architecture at National Level

Yes, you can prepare yourself for GATE exam, if you are well-organized, dedicated and hard working.

It is not a must that all candidates who score good marks in GATE exam come through coaching centres.
If you have determination, then you will surely succeed.

Marks:If you want a pass mark in GATE then it is 100
But for securing a seat in IIT, your minimum score should be above 550.

All the Best....

Re: Can I prepare myself for GATE exam by self study?

Hi
Yes you can clear the gate examination by the self study also if you are more confident on yourself that you can do practice for that alone.
But keep one thing in mind that alone you can't get those trick which are helpful for solve questions which are tricky. You can only get this trick if you can join some good institute for that.
But another way of practicing for gate that you can do group studies with your friends. By studying in group you will know many things which you can't get alone.
So its a advice to you to you that it would be better if you study in group or in some institute.

Good Luck!!!!!

It will reduce your preparation pressure by considerable level sothat you can remain relaxed for te Exam. This is solely my opinion and I not degrading you that you cant do it without coaching, You can, But with heavy effort. So Think twice before you reap.

Re: Can I prepare myself for GATE exam by self study?

Dear friend
Any exam you can qualify on your own but the fact is that you should be good at your subject knowledge. As far as GATE is concerned it totally depends on your graduation degree so you can do it by covering the syllabus by yourself.
If you are aspiring for IITs for your post graduation you should score at least 96 percentile. But it is not only percentile that matters for admission to Mtech programs in IITs. You should also have more than 7.5 CGPA and the chances are good if your CGPA is more than 8.0.

Re: Can I prepare myself for GATE exam by self study?

Hello friend,

If you have enough self-confidence that you can make sound preparation of this exam then you can really rely on self-study.

You must have knowledge of how much competitive exam it has become...

Each year thousands of graduate students from B.Tech and also Master's degree holders from general science background sit for this exam to study M.Tech in reputed IITs.

And the syllabus is also quite vast irrespective of branches. You have to have deep concept of topics covered in the syllabus.

There are many study materials available these days for GATE exam . To prepare yourself,you can have these from nearby book stores and even online resources.

So it totally depends on you whether you need coaching or something like that for the preparation..

Well the minimum percentile required for appearing at GATE is at least 60% in graduation.

Wish you good luck!

dear friend

GATE exams are not easy, yes you have to clear this exams by self study. But for this you have to give your lots of efforts in study. In GATE exams, there will be negative marking for wrong answer.

So, if possible please join some coaching centre and keep focous on your basics and solve previous year papers of GATE exams. Then you will get acheive a good marks in GATE exams to get a colleges like IIT's.

The pattern of the GATE exam and the syllabus are also based on the B.Tech. or BE syllabus. So, please work hard according to the syllabus, you will definately get sucess in your GATE exams. To get admission in IIT's, you have to scored more than 95% marks in your GATE exams.
