Attempt general aptitude first to boost your confidence.
Try attempting all MSQ and NAT questions, as they do not carry negative marking. But avoid guessing MCQs, as there is a negative marking of ⅓.
Sleep at least 7+ hours before the exam; otherwise, you will feel tired in the three-hour-long exam. Remember, GATE is an endurance test.
Pack your bag the night before the exam. Make sure you have everything prepared in advance.
Don’t panic, even if the exam is hard. Always remember that if the question paper is hard for you, then it is hard for everyone.
