Hey, My name is Shaswat and i have completed my Bachelors in Electrical engineering in 2018 from NIT Jamshedpur and was working in a Steel Industry till April last year. After that i decided to quit my job and started my preparation for Gate in Computer Science and secured an All India Rank of 13. After my 10 month long preparation I genuinely believe that Gate-CS can be cracked by anyone irrespective of their stream. If you have a tendency to think in a logical way then cracking Gate will be a piece of cake for you. Although there are a lot of preparation strategies online but still i would like to briefly share my methodology that i used during my preparation (But i still think it would be better if you developed your own strategy). In the first phase of preparation just focus on ... During this time just revise your notes, highlight important points so that you can do revision later on in a short period of time. (I found highting notes more effective than make short notes seperately). And also re-solve the questions you have bookmarked from test series, mocks and previous year questions. If you want to connect with me, you can do that via. fb/instagram. My userid is 28shaswat.

Huge thanks to GO and the community for making a dream come true! My GATE 2020 marks were 42 and my preparation was also not up to the mark. So I decided to drop out and give my best for Gate 2021 and in the process decided not to take any online Coaching. I Completed GO PDF 3 to 4 times during my preparation which helped in boosting my confidence. Also, a huge thanks to the GO Test Series community. The level of the questions was just perfect to push myself just a little more to get more marks. Slowly but eventually, I saw myself grow from 30 to 75-80% marks. I was hoping to get the same result in the main exam and thankfully i got 71.67 marks(after normalization). Thank you GateOverflow! -Mayank Sati, AIR 34

I kept using gate overflow for solutions which I didn’t understand when I was solving PYQs from my classes book. In November I came across GO PDFs. I solved all the questions again during December – January and checked many solutions and comments. Many solutions completely changed my understanding to topics. The community is the best with so many knowledgeable people and aspirants. We also get multiple approaches to same problem as many users have uploaded their own solution. Gatecse website also has amazing resources like video links, question papers, etc. I did not use it much but it was also very helpful. Also, the rank predictor was so perfect that it was unbelievable. Predicted Rank: 26 – 31, Actual Rank: 26 And now it also has subject wise marks. Finally, I would like to say thank you to Arjun Sir and GO community for helping GATE CSE aspirants throughout our gate journey. Without this portal, atleast my journey would have been a bumpy one. Thank you. :)

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK GATEOVERFLOW . BY PRACTISING THROUGH GATEOVERFLOW PDFS AND CLEARING ALL MY DOUBTS BY EXPLANATIONS POSTED UNDER THE QUESTIONS. THEY HELPED ME TO GET AIR 33 IN GATE 2021. -CHAITANYA CHENNAM

I am a final year student at IIIT Bhubaneswar of CSE branch. I secured rank 178 this year with 68.67 marks and 818 score. This is my first post on gate for all future gate aspirants.This was my first attempt of gate and I studied with the help of video lectures and then self study.GO helped a lot during my preparation.Whenever I faced any doubt on any topic or faced trouble solving any question I would search it on Gateoverflow, and everytime my doubts were resolved.Students who prepare by online courses or do self study,GO is life saviour for them.Because eventually you will have trouble solving questions and you would not have anyone to resolve your doubts, that time you can search on GO your question or ask on it.Thank you to all GO team members who helped me to achieve this rank in gate.

My Background During my 11th-12th I studied in a school where there were no one preparing for JEE. Everyone just wanted to get into some local engineering college. Best scenario possible was getting into some private college with tuition-fee-waiver. If one cannot make it into some engineering college then he/she would join BSc or something. That's what our teachers told us. I didn't know what's the difference between IITs and local colleges is. Actually, at the time of solving MCQs from books we skipped the question if it had been asked in previous JEE papers :). That was the scenario. I really find it very frustrating sometime that I didn't even recognized difference between premier institution and some very creep institutions. Every one of us just believed that JEE is not ... instead😊. His blogs made me such a student which mostly looks for in-depth understanding. I thank to Shaik Masthan for being active participant at csedoubts.gateoverflow.com. Then I thanks to those volunteers at GO who freely gives their mostly scarce time for GATE aspirants. There are also many fellow aspirants whose questions on csedoubts.gateoverflow.com taught me a lot. So, I'm really thankful to them😊.

Quick Read : Follow the resources given in gatecse.in. Those are the best that you can find online. Solve GO pdf thoroughly unless you've mastered the concepts involved in the PYQs. Read comments and different approaches for answers. Take test series if you've time but don't take the marks seriously :P A big thanks to GO community. Here you will find everything you need to strengthen your concepts. Best thing about GO is that you can argue about answers, have healthy discussions and get to the root of why the solution is the way it is. Aspirants of GATE CS are fortunate to have this platform. I fell sick in last week leading to the exam. All my confidence was lost and was unable to perform that well in test series. So I decided to once again go through the GO pdf and discussions and not give any tests. In this ... so focus on things you can control. You don't learn anything from exams. You learn while preparing for them. Don't forget to live a life. GATE is an easy exam and not as competitive as JEE. So if you have failed at JEE, don't think you won't make it in GATE. Life never stops throwing opportunities at you, it's upto you to make the most of them. Rituraj Joshi AIR 29

Hello Everyone, I'm Aditya Pradhan, a final year student of Information Technology at a state government college in Udaipur. I have secured $AIR\ 312$ in $GATE\ 2020$. I expected much better rank before the exam, but was not able to attempt more questions (attempted only $52$) and was depressed because of this. But hopefully I got only $4$ or $5$ of them wrong and landed at this rank. Now, I am preparing for IIT Kanpur M.S., IIT-B M.Tech. RA and IISc CDS Coursework and CSA Research interviews and hoping that my semester exam dates don't clash with any of them. Regarding my preparation journey, I used to study my semester subjects through standard books and resources given on $gatecse.in$ and started proper GATE preparation from the month of July after I got placed on-campus. I had gone through all the standard books once ... and do lab assignments on your own, trust me, this will build your base in Computer Science and will help you in the long run. Thank you :) ------------------------------ Edit : I'm selected in IIT Bombay M.Tech. (RA) and will be joining it, for interview experience please visit: https://gateoverflow.in/blog/10586/iit-bombay-m-tech-ra-interview-experience

Hi, This is Vishal Gourav, I work at TCS,Noida presently and prepared for GATE 2020 while having a full time(9-6) job. Short Back Story: I was never great in studies not because I couldn't understand the concepts but because I lacked the hard work and discipline. While I was pursuing B.Tech from JSSATE,Noida I was content with just finishing up with my studies finally and getting into a job,start earning money and spending it. In 2019, I had given GATE with 1 month preparation and got 38.33/100(AIR:7045, Score:448). Though the score was not much to be proud off but for the first time in my life I had enjoyed studying so much. I had only prepared TOC,EM,DS for GATE 2019. It was the 30th of July when I received my first salary, I felt that I was not satisfied with what I had achieved till now in ... result I got which is very important but not as important as finally finding a goal in life(which I won't discuss). So, once you decide you want to do something and have the discipline to do it, no one can stop you. My father always says, Tumhari Naseeb naa koi bana sakta hai aur naa hi koi chheen sakta hai . Toh padhai karo,mehnat karo aur GO toh hai hi. Marks: 70/100 AIR:129 Score:834

I have secured AIR-(202) out of 97481 students( 99.79 percentile) in GATE CS-2020 with marks 68/100 and my gate score is 811/1000. Currently , I am in my final year and pursuing my B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering from Feroze Gandhi Institute of Engineering & Technology, Raebareli (U.P.). I always had a dream of getting into IIT and with that dream after my 10+2, I went to KOTA FACTORY but was unable to crack it but the most important part was what I have learned from the failure and throughout the journey. After that anyhow I took admission in a state University Tier - 3 college. Now I will describe shortly the each year of my B.Tech : FIRST YEAR - ended up in knowing the status of my college weather it is private or semi-govt. (Till now it's a mystery). SECOND YEAR - Did some Competitive ... important watch and read the testimonials of toppers when you feel low .

Hi Everyone, I am Prashant Ravi and I got AIR 283 this year and my GATE score is 787. This year I prepared with a job. This rank is an improvement over my previous year rank which was 2050. I have already covered my preparation experience in a separate article here. So, I will try to keep this post short and cover main pointers for working professionals and also about how I used GO. Main pointers for working professionals: Make a realistic schedule. Keep buffer time in your schedule for unprecedented activities. Slowly try to get used to that schedule and then stick to it. Occasional faulting is fine because everyone needs a break. Time is a luxury so utilize it properly. During weekends, if you can't study 7-8 hours per day then don't but don't waste weekends completely. In best case try ... January but that couldn't happen for me and I wrote really less number of tests. I missed all CBTs also for which you must go to a center to give test. Giving sufficient number of tests is really important. In the end, again I will highlight that Gate Overflow was a very crucial factor in my success. Thanks a lot Gate Overflow!

Hi, I am Suraj Kesharwani, I have scored AIR: 372 in GATE 2020. My Gate-Score is 764. This was my third attempt. I had to leave my job earlier in June 2019 to prepare seriously as I decided this would be my last attempt. My previous ranks are 5793 and 7613 in GATE 2018 and 2019 respectively. I want to thank my family, GO Community, and my friend/ Mentor Abhishek Shaw. He has cracked GATE in 2019 with AIR: 175 and has also inspired me to leave my job and prepare full time. This blog is in continuation of his preparation strategy as I have also followed it with some improvements. You can find his blogs here (Blog 1) (Blog 2) (Blog 3)(Blog 4)(Blog 5)(Blog 6) Some Personal Background: I never thought about taking GATE in my whole UG. Neither did I ... Teachers who have massive students following them but they themselves have not cleared GATE with a good rank and are teaching subjects for GATE (at least I did not find that about their rank).

Hello everyone, This is Rajnandani Shaw and I have secured AIR 312 with marks 65.3(Gate score 779) in GATE 2020 and also selected as Scientist B in DRDO. I am neither a GATE topper nor from IIT/IIIT/NIT's but just an average student from a very normal engineering college just like many. I am a 2016 batch passout and had prepared for GATE with a full-time job. I am very thankful to Arjun sir and GateOverflow team for such a wonderful platform which had helped a lot during my entire preparation. This is my first post on GateOverflow. GO previous year's questions hard copy and goclassroom are very useful for gate preparation. GateOverflow is a must for all preparing from online sources or doing self-studies. In GO we can ask our doubts, discuss anything, get preparation tips, and resolve our queries ... silly mistakes in basic formulae and division in the aptitude section as I was not able to revise aptitude because I had exams and interviews in the last two months and my DRDO interview was also scheduled in Delhi 2 days prior to the GATE exam which was not in my GATE preparation plan, but I am happy for my DRDO result. Thanks for reading. Sorry for the long post. All the very best.

Marks:68 AIR:308 Currently BTECH Final Year SGGS College nanded I had no coaching but I never felt like one as whenever I got problem I just googled it out n guess what first link was of GO. Comments in that problem on GO page by experts really helped me a lot #I'm not bragging but hatssoff to u arjun suresh sir . Thanks GO once again

Reading the past year's toppers testimonials on GO and thinking whether I will be able to perform well and be an example for future aspirants always seemed to be a motivating factor for giving my best, and now this feeling is totally magical. I am Tejasvi Sharma, a BE CSE 2018 graduate from UIET, PU, Chandigarh, managed to climb up from 4 digit rank(1707) in Gate-18 to 2 digit rank(78) in Gate-19. Joined an abc coaching for last year's attempt but was not satisfied by the performance last year. Thought of giving an attempt with Job for the next year. Got motivation from my senior who also achieved the same feat there. About the preparation strategy, the best thing is planning beforehand and creating a roadmap for the journey that lies ahead. The best resources available for study are the ... the past year examinations. As has been rightly said Those who sweat more in training bleed less in war' so give good quality tests by joining a decent test series and try to learn from the mistakes and constantly aim for improvement. Also there is no shortcut to success so yeah one has to invest a lot of time for the same and there is no substitute for that. Thanks GO for everything..

Words would fall short to express how much thankful I am to GO for the helping hands that the wonderful users of this site had extended to me to enable me land up at AIR 116 in GATE CS 2019 in the very first attempt. I am currently pursuing my Btech in 4th year. Thank you @Arjun Sir , @Bikram Sir to come up with such a wonderful site and always helping fellow aspirants like us. Though this isn’t such an impressive rank, but behind the scenes, there were countless number of sleepless nights and lot of struggle and hard work which got all the recognition today because of GO. I would personally like to thank my best friend @Manas Kumar Mishra for picking me up at times when I was low..for motivating and inspiring me to the extent that enabled me to carry on my preparation till the last minute. I can’t express my gratitude in words..There are certain emotions that cant be expressed in words..:) Also, I would personally like to thank @Shaik , @MiniPanda , @Magma for helping me endlessly to clarify my doubts. Thank you so much :) My GATE journey has been described here: https://www.quora.com/profile/Somoshree-Datta

I am Shreyansh Jain, a B.Tech CSE 2018 graduate from a tier-3 college, managed AIR-86 in GATE-19 with two months of dedicated preparation. This post might help people who messed up their exam or could not held their nerves on the D-day. I will try to pin point everything wrong I did while preparing last year. Before that I would like to thank everyone who has contributed in the making of GO book and Arjun sir especially for all his selfless efforts to make this platform and bringing all aspirants under one roof. After GATE 2018, I was looking for an answer to the question Should I drop completely / or continue preparation with job / or focus on Job entirely? having scored AIR 323. As I got placed in a product based company so I thought I can continue preparing with job. ... and Mark for Review to prioritize order of solving problem based on difficulty level Mentally prepared myself not to get panic by looking at some alien problem (test by @rituraj helped) Blunders I made : Ate something non-sense night before exam, woke up with headache $225 \times 4 =1000$, might cost me with IITB All the best to future aspirants. Prepare well without thinking about results. Thank you :)

Firstly i would like to thank gateoverflow community for my success. Without gateoverlfow air 45 would have been only a distant dream for me. The detailed solutions to all the question on gateoverflow is unmatched. I would also like to thank all the members of gateoverlow community for guiding me directly or indirectly through their comments and blogs. I would also like to thank my seniors abhijeet pandey sir and sarthak chauhan sir for their valuable guidance during my preparation. They were the people who inspired me to get better rank. Last but not least i am also thankfull to my friend sarthak sharma for his valuable input during discussions and motivating me through my preparation. Tips for gate2020 inspirants. Gate is not a 100 m race it’s like a marathon. one should plan his/her preparation in well advance. set some benchmarks for yourself and try to achieve them. Don’t take test series too lightly they are vital part of your revision. Don’t get disheartened if you get low marks/ranks in test series. but always look for improvement. Do previeus years question atleast twice or thrice.

Before you read any further, you should judge me, because I am not a topper! My rank(558) and gate score(729), marks (63.67). It is important for you to decide if my experience is worth your time. Also, the usual disclaimer, below is My reasoned routine for GATE 2019. First things first, there is "NO SHORT CUT TO THE GATE JOURNEY". Quite trivial a line it is and you must indeed learn to value the meaning that it holds. For those preparing for GATE 2020, the biggest challenge you have right now is time. Not that you have less time in hand, but the fact that you have way way more than whats required to kill GATE, calls for immense dedication to keep the regularity of studies going. At times you shall feel that the pace at which your preparation is going is pretty good, and you deserve a ... THINK OF ME AS SOMEONE WHO BOASTS(CAUSE INITIALLY MY COLLEGE GRADES WERE HARDLY AROUND 6.5 TO 7, INCREASED LATER THOUGH). THE THING IS, IF YOU ADVERTISE YOUR POTENTIAL SUCCESS, YOU ARE SUB-CONSCIOUSLY FORCING YOURSELF TO DELIVER. Even if you fail, worst case is people remember you as a jerk. But its up to you to decide what you want. All the best for 2020. Wish you a good health. :) Jai Hind.

AIR-$175$ Marks-$71.67$ This was my third attempt and I got AIR-$175$. Gate preparation can be described as $30:70$ ratio, $30$% is learning concepts from videos/classes/books. $70$% is about practice. So for $30$% have a look at videos, books before joining anything/ paying your money. Gate Overflow is very helpful for the $70$% part of preparation. Previous year questions(more than 3000 questions) are very important and solving them required me around $4$ months, because if I couldn't solve a question means I didn't knew the concept well so I had to learn them properly and not just see the solution and happily move on to next question. You get answers to all the previous year questions with enough discussion and even after that if you are not satisfied you can ask doubts ... had $3-4$ wrong answer keys provided, and were changed as soon as the Gate key were out. But all the key provided by Gate Overflow were right. Further Gate Overflow has guidance for post exam also for admission and counseling and college predictor is also very accurate. If I did not knew about Gate Overflow I could not have managed to get 70+ in Gate. My other blogs: Test Series Figuring out attempt strategy

Marks : 66.33 AIR: 410 . It is my first attempt to GATE CS.Firstly I am not topper but I tried my best to qualify gate with good rank. I am currently pursuing B.Tech. from Tier-3 college. GATE Overflow Books really helped me to achieve that rank and also post GATE guidance provided by Arjun Suresh Sir really helped me a lot. I got IIT Guwahati in COAP 2nd round . At the end I would like to thank GATE OVERFLOW Community.

*This is my first post, so forgive me if its written badly* After preparing twice (Gate 17 & 18) and failing twice I was frustrated and disheartened. I left the hope of getting into premium institutions and joined NIT Delhi with no other option. But still that dream was awake in some corner of my heart. I decided to appear for Gate 19. I started stealing time from academics to prepare for gate 19. I had this in mind that I know the concepts well as I have had prepared earlier so I will revise the syllabus and practice gate questions. I joined GO_classroom and started reading discrete maths and doing programming assignments given but I couldn't continue this with other subjects. So then I switched to my notes which I made while preparing for gate 18. It was really tough to find out ... motivation degrades and it continues for next 3-4 months. Here you need to sustain. Don't Quit! If you could pass this phase you will be able to regain your motivation and will be able to finish your preparations as you thought. And chances are you will win! Finally remember to follow Gate Overflow, it'll help you throughout your preparation. Thank you Arjun sir for gifting us with Gate Overflow!

This was my first attempt for gate and I scored gate score 737 and rank 498.. Though it is not that good score.. But without gate overflow I seriously dont think that it could have been possible.. A big thanks to all the gate overflow community members especially Shaik Masthan Sir, Arjun Suresh Sir, Srestha Mam.. I started preparing for gate since 3rd year but at that time I didnt know much about gateoverflow site I started using it from may 2018 and that was the turning point of my preparation. I think the previous year questions are sufficient for practice and one should do them atleast twice.. I guess there is no need to say as we all know that the best resource for it is The Great GO Previous Year book!!! Tests do help us to rank ourselves as we can test our concepts and work upon our real areas.. One ... will always regret.. So be confident and practice as much as you can.. At this rank I knew that being from general category there is no chance for any old iit.. I got interview call from iitb ra but couldnt convert it .. But my studies and hardwork didnt go waste as I got admission in IIITH.. A very big thanks to Gate Overflow for it .. Thanks and all the very best to all f

I would like to share my story with you all. My rank in gate 2018 was 10374 with marks 27.67. I didn't sit in college placements because I wanted to give it one more shot. Didn't wanted to be a financial burden on my family so I decided to stay at home and study. I arranged some lectures from a friend and started watching them and making notes. But when I started giving mocks I was only scoring around 20-25% marks. I was depressed. I was able to solve previous year questions but wasn't able to score well in mocks. There was a time when I was regretting my decision of not joining a coaching institute. But then GO came to the rescue. The motivational blogs here are simply awesome. What I have observed is that the main quality of this website is the discussion that follows the answer and a number of ... marks, find out where you are lacking, find out your mistakes and rectify them and don't ever loose hope while preparing. 2 days prior to the GATE 2019 I gave full length mock and scored 37 but I told myself that this is not me and I'm going to do much much better in the main exam. I scored 64.67 marks with rank 479 and will join IIT Kanpur Mtech(TA). Thank you GateOverflow !!!

I am writing this post not to give any tips about the preparation strategy as it has already been given/will be given by many toppers. This post is just an attempt to motivate whoever is planning to take a drop. Last year (2017-18) was a nightmare for me and I know there are a lot more to come as this is what life is! I have faced many hurdles in a short period of time and each of them had broken me from inside. Background: I have done my graduation from a private college in West Bengal. I was not a very average student in my college. My theoretical as well as practical knowledge was not bad I believe and my gate prep had significant contribution in that. Still was not able to crack the initial rounds of many companies and finally got placed at an MNC which ... significance. Prashant Sir, Digvijay Sir, Soumya, Shaik Masthan, srestha, Magma, Mk Utkarsh, Arvin, Somoshree, Headshot, Prince Sindhiya and all the veterans. It's been a while since I have participated in any discussion here so I might be forgetting names of some important people. Please pardon me for that. Last but not the least thanks to my elder sis Trishna and my parents for supporting me throughout the journey :)

I got GS : 618, rank : 1855 and marks : 53.67 in GATE 2019. I'm not a topper, I didn't get even under 1000 rank, so why will you read my testimonial about GO? Totally depends on you. GO doesn't need any testimonial to prove that it's THE first and ultimate option for Gate Aspirants. Unfortunately, I came across Gate Overflow during mid-September of 2018, when Gate-2019 was only a few months away. But within only 2-3 months, GO raised my exposure level from 20% to 90% So, why does so many people believe in Gate Overflow? Reasons? These many: for(i = 0; i >=0; i++) { count++; } ENVIRONMENT One of the main reasons is that GO provides you an environment, which generally you don't get, especially if you are from a tier-3 engineering college. The posts from other aspirants, ... I could've achieved what I have today. Even at such a low score and being from General category, I got calls from IIT Madras, IIT Hyderabad, IIIT Delhi and IIT Patna. I also gave PGEE for IIIT Hyderabad, and cleared the written exam and interview, and got MS in CSE by Research in one of the best institutes in India; and without GO it would've been almost impossible. Thanks to each and every member of GO Community.

Well, after my BTech in EXTC, I had managed to get a good job at Wipro in Telecom domain. However, after few months in the IT work, I started feeling that this is not the place where I belong, I felt I am born to do something more, the IT work can be taught to any other BTech guy, and he was any day replaceable. I didn't wanted to be that replaceable person, and wanted to do more fruitful work, and I also wanted to study more, and then I thought of giving GATE, and yes, I wanted to give GATE in CS. It was a difficult decision for me and a risky one too, to leave my well paid job and go back to studies, that too in a new branch for me since I was from EXTC. I was blessed to have very supportive parents and friends, who suggested me to join classroom coaching in Ace. Coaching gave me the competitive environment ... calls, there are other exams like IIITH, JEST, etc. be updated, there is very nice fb group of GO (I would suggest joining after GATE though :p) There is always a way, we just need to find it, and there is always an answer, we just need to solve it ..!! :) Thanks for reading guys, if you have any queries feel free to reach out to me, I would be happy to help :) Cheers!!

How is it?
