I have a general doubt. If we have a wrong question in GATE paper then what we need to do? should we attempt it or leave it.

because if question is wrong marks should be given to all the students who have attempted that question

or

gate people will simpy ignore that question and don't do any thing.

First of all you can not decide in advance that it is a wrong question unless and until it is a theoretical question where u know the relevant theory and hence come to conclusion within a short span of time.

Secondly the idea and intuition that the question is wrong or incomplete or ambiguous (may have more 2 option correct) comes through strong foundation of the concepts as well as exhaustive practice only.

So it is not that u see a question and say that it is incorrect.U have to solve properly before coming to a valid conlusion.Remember when such questions exist obviously all will try to attempt but the ability to conclude that it is a wrong question varies from person to person all which depends on decision making capability of a student and how much practice of questions one has done throughout the year.

Remember as a rule of thumb.Don't be in love with a particular question.Barring a few questions , on an average a question takes 2 - 2.5 minutes to solve.So if u are taking more than 4-5 minutes then leave that question and come to that later.
