GATE 2024 IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

GATE 2024 IMPORTANT QUESTIONS 

Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering, otherwise known as GATE is an examination of highest quality which an Engineering student needs to crack for the next step in career or in their educations. So are you one among that student? well if you are, then the rest is for you, only for you.

GATE is a competitive exam which exclusively include the things you learn in 4 years of you Engineering life. So, if you have a vision from the beginning in pursing GATE, then the best would be to keep a track on things you have learned from the first year of engineering till the last, making sure you don’t lose any of your engineering study material, however you will only be able to appear in GATE exam for the first time during your sixth semester, that is the basic eligibility criteria.

Study your core engineering subject promptly during your UG course is the right first step in preparation for GATE, which majority of the students struggle to do. The earliest realization to qualify GATE comes to the mind of majority during their final year.

A good GATE ranker will never skip subject like Geotechnical Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Engineering Mathematics which constitute about 50% of mark.  A wise GATE ranker will exclude considerable portion from Steel, Building Materials, high level concept of Structural Analysis, Strength of Materials.
