hello aspirant,
-
Know the Exam Pattern
GATE has three parts: General Aptitude (15 marks), Engineering Mathematics (10–13 marks), and your Core Subject (70+ marks). Knowing this helps you plan your focus. -
Check the Syllabus
Download the latest GATE syllabus for your specific branch. Start with high-weightage topics and make sure you cover everything that’s important. -
Make a Study Plan
Set a simple and realistic daily routine. Try to study 4–6 hours a day and set weekly targets. Always keep time for revision and solving mock tests. -
Use the Right Books
Stick to standard textbooks and good GATE preparation materials like Made Easy or ACE. Don’t overload yourself with too many books—choose wisely and revise them well. -
Practice a Lot
Solve previous years’ GATE papers to understand the question pattern. Practice topic-wise problems regularly and focus more on numerical-type questions. -
Take Mock Tests
Join a test series and give mock exams regularly. After every test, check what went wrong and work on those weak areas. This helps improve speed and accuracy. -
Revise and Stay Calm
Make a short notebook of formulas and key points. Revise it often. Also, take care of your health, sleep well, and don’t panic. Staying relaxed is just as important as studying.
Start where you are, use what you have, and do what you can — every small step counts.
All the very best for your exam preparation journey.

Hello,
Yes, it is possible to join an ME without writing GATE. You can consider universities such as VIT, SRM, and Amity which conduct their own entrance test or take admission based on merit. Several states conduct their own entrance exams like TANCET in Tamil Nadu, PGCET in Karnataka, and MAH-CET in Maharashtra.
Hope this helps. All the best!
