Now, don't go with any local material, buy standard reference books and read them and try to understand it and make short notes. If you're not getting concepts then go through with some good quality videos like MIT OCW, NPTEL, Coursera videos etc. After completing the syllabus of a subject, try to solve previous years questions of Gate using Gate overflow. Now, you can analyze your preparation, if you're able to solve previous years questions that mean your concepts are clear and now proceed with other subjects and follow this same path. Here are some steps you should follow: 1) Complete Gate syllabus using standard reference books and Good quality videos lectures(MIT, NPTEL etc.) 2)Solve previous years questions and try not to look answer and analyze where you're lacking, If you're getting the wrong answer for a particular topic then it's time to read again those topics from books and internet. 3)Try to solve easy-medium questions given on the back of the each chapter of a Reference book. It's good to solve them but not necessary. 4)Now, to understand time management and how you should attempt paper, take mock tests and try to score 80+ and don't get depressed or too excited with these results as you have to aim for exam day and try to not to touch last 2-3 previous years Gate questions, solve them at the time of taking test series and try to score 80+ in them. Just keep practicing and analyze where you're making mistakes and try to correct them. I'm attaching a list of reference books you should read for more information visit http://gatecse.in/ 1 votes 1 votes Sukhbir Singh commented Feb 17, 2021 reply Follow Share Please also suggest video playlists to follow 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
