you can get question book one from publishers like IFAS or GKP. Also use free online resources like NPTEL and EasyBiologyClass for extra practice and study materials. Good luck!

Here are GATE exam aptitude topics from high to low weightage:

1. English Comprehension & Vocabulary

2.Numerical Ability and Arithmetic

3.Logical Reasoning & Analytical Ability

4.Data Interpretation

5.Geometry & Mensuration basic

6.Algebra basic

7.Probability and Statistics

8.General Knowledge and Miscellaneous Verbal like  odd one out, analogy, word usage.


If you are needed to prepare for gate exam from ece batch there 65 questions in exam pattern total marks is 100 here 15% is aptitude general questions then 15% mathematics engineering questions , 70% core subjects you need to concentrate on more core related subject like controls system , signals and system , digital circut these topics covers most of the basics but you need to prepare more topics in core subjects and create a structure plan for yourself dialy attend mock test with time duration these steps will help to prepare very easily.

Hello,

So, according to your first question, you want to  know specialization in chemical engineering for M.Tech after completing the B.Tech program. Here are some good specializations for the M.Tech program

  • Process Engineering
  • Petroleum Engineering
  • Biochemical Engineering
  • Pharmaceutical Engineering
  • Process Control and Instrumentation Engineering

Also, for the second one, you want to know some good colleges that allow management quota for admission in private options. Here are some

  • VIT (Vellore Institute of Technology)
  • SRM Institute of Science and Technology
  • Lovely Professional University

I hope it will clear your query!!
