HOW TO PREPARE FOR GATE 2024 IN 3 MONTHS ?

HOW TO PREPARE FOR GATE 2024 IN 3 MONTHS ?

The Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is a nationwide examination that is collaboratively organized by the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, along with seven Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, IIT Kanpur, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madras, and IIT Roorkee) on behalf of the National Coordination Board (NCB)-GATE, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Education (MoE), Government of India.

GATE is administered in a computer-based format (CBT) and assesses candidates’ comprehensive understanding of a wide range of undergraduate subjects in Engineering, Technology, Science, and Architecture, as well as both undergraduate and post-graduate level subjects in Humanities and Science. GATE 2024 will include 30 different test papers, spread out over four days. The examination dates for GATE 2024 are scheduled for February 3, 4, 10, and 11, 2024. This examination will be conducted in multiple cities across India and will not be held in centers located outside of India.

GATE EXAM PATTERN 2023

GATE 2024 CUT OFF MARKS 

Study material and reference book for the GATE exam plays a dominant role in your exam preparation. If you are studying by self-preparation, apart from your UG study material, try collecting standard textbooks for each subject and start your work, but mind you, textbooks are vast and not filtered according to the gate requirement. This method of study will be successful, but it consumes more than double time you spend in CIVILIANZ, because a coaching institute provides classes to maximum precision and to the point for GATE.

Now let us explain about a systematic coaching, this is highly recommended because everything needed for GATE is provided in plate, what to study, what not to study, which subject to focus, which chapter should be concentrated more, which one should be left, chapter wise mock test, subject wise mock test, complete mock test, literally everything related to GATE preparation comes under one umbrella. So in CIVILIANZ, there is no necessity to study text books, that would be recommended only when you have done the rest of things right. This simply means, by studying CIVILIANZ materials along with regular attendance in our class, cracking gate will be a piece of cake.

Tips and tricks to follow while preparing for GATE

This exam, there will be plenty of things to remember like lots and lots of formulae, standard values, concepts and so on. Following are the tips and tricks to follow while doing GATE preparation

• Mix up the distinct subjects while you study. Don’t try to complete one subject and then move to other and then another. Study multiple subjects at a time
• Keep keynotes and sticky notes across your study room with important formulae and standard values, this will help you in easy remember
• Prepare notes in such a way that you use multiple colour inks to write. This helps in catching the important point quickly especially when you revise.
• Attend chapter-wise as well as subject-wise mock tests along with your preparation and don’t wait for finishing up the studies and then writing test. Attend tests along with your study. An overall mock test can be kept at last.
• Regularly interact with fellow competitors, especially the one who works harder and the one’s who you think are the rank makers

TARGET GATE 2024

Civilianz presents Target GATE Intensive Course for students with a well-rounded and structured approach to GATE preparation through online resources and support. It equips students with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to excel in the GATE exam, making it an ideal choice for those aspiring to pursue postgraduate studies in engineering and related fields while benefiting from the convenience of online learning.

1. Live Classes (6:00 PM to 9:00 PM): Live classes during these evening hours provide students with an opportunity to interact with instructors in real-time. It allows for immediate clarification of doubts, active participation, and engagement. This is particularly important for complex subjects as it promotes a deeper understanding of the topics.

2. Recorded Classes Covering Full Syllabus: Having recorded classes available ensures that students can revisit and review the content at their own pace. This is especially beneficial for subjects with high weightage as it allows for in-depth study and revision, ensuring that no part of the syllabus is left unaddressed.

3. Videos and Assessment Tests: Video lectures can make complex topics more understandable. Combining video content with assessment tests helps gauge the students’ grasp of the subject matter. Regular quizzes or tests after each topic or module can reinforce learning and identify areas that require additional attention.

4. Regular Model Tests: Regular model tests are essential to assess the overall progress of students. These tests simulate the actual exam conditions and help students manage their time, practice problem-solving, and build confidence. For high-weightage subjects, the focus on these tests is vital.

5. GATE Test Series: A GATE test series is invaluable for students preparing for the GATE examination. These tests closely resemble the actual GATE exam in terms of difficulty, format, and time constraints. They help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and fine-tune their strategies for the real exam.

6. Comprehensive GATE Study Material eBook: Providing a comprehensive GATE study material eBook is a fantastic resource. It should cover the entire syllabus in detail, including high-weightage subjects. This eBook should be structured, easy to navigate, and serve as a reference guide for students.

Civilianz stands as the top GATE coaching center in Kerala, specializing in preparing students for various Civil Engineering Competitive exams. Our comprehensive coaching program covers a range of exams, including GATE – Civil, Assistant Engineer, Assistant Professor Civil, Lecturer in Polytechnic, Junior Engineer- Civil, Overseer, Tracer, and other similar civil engineering  competitions.
