Then atleast one standard book of each subject. All books required for GATE exam preparation in Engineering are mentioned in above link.
we can give you some suggestion for your preparation time table :
(1) make plan as per time availability in a day for study exclude other times like daily routine work etc.
(2) Always study in three level anything :
1. easy
2. medium
3. Hard
First follow easy. Like you are going to study a chapter. Note down all the important topic from exam point of view and study introductory of every topic then move to next chapter and so on. It will not take much time and you will complete your whole syllabus at least once then medium than hard.
Make a time table for a whole day, for a week, for a month and for a year for GATE 2016. Stick to the time table. Must include time for revision in each time table.

What is best after gate
Hello deepak,
Nowadays there are two main options after GATE :
(1) Jobs through GATE score
(2) Higher education through GATE score
Section in b/w Job and Higher education depends upon many factors like your family condition, your interest etc.
So get good score in GATE then discuss with some people who are doing job after clearing GATE and also with people who are doing Masters or P HD course after claring GATE exam.
Do some discuss with your family too what they want you to do bcz they are also part of your preparation.
Most of the candidates choose Jobs in PSUs bcz now a days competition is high so no one wants to lose a single change to get a good job.
Rest final decision depends upon you.

GATE 2016 Reference Books : http://www.gate2016.info/gate-2016-books/
First you have to have a book of previous GATE 20-30 years papers with solution so that you can get a good idea about GATE questions.
Then atleast one standard book of each subject. All books required for GATE exam preparation in Engineering are mentioned in above link.
we can give you some suggestion for your preparation time table :
(1) make plan as per time availability in a day for study exclude other times like daily routine work etc.
(2) Always study in three level anything :
1. easy
2. medium
3. Hard
First follow easy. Like you are going to study a chapter. Note down all the important topic from exam point of view and study introductory of every topic then move to next chapter and so on. It will not take much time and you will complete your whole syllabus at least once then medium than hard.
Make a time table for a whole day, for a week, for a month and for a year for GATE 2016. Stick to the time table. Must include time for revision in each time table.

what r the books to be referred to gate examination?i am belong to shivaji university.is the local publication books are satisfy the needs?
Hello Bosu,
GATE 2016 reference books : http://www.gate2016.info/gate-2016-books/
There is no problem with Local books but these books must be error free and must contain good enough knowledge for a particular subject.
If you find a question in question paper you answer correctly as per your local book but that answer differ in standard books.
Your answer would be wrong because GATE office always follow standard books.
So it is always advisable that always read standard books.
You may follow Local books too for understanding any topic but final reference must be from standard books.
I hope you understand my point.

sir,is it better to have self study and join in short term course or to join in long term course directly for gate.
Hello yeswanth,
For 2016 short term would be fine but you need to prepare what they dont study you in the class in short term course.
For 2016 GATE you dont have enough time for long term course now.
long term would be fine for GATE 2017 preparation.
Self study is best option but it requires hard work in right direction. If you can maintain, it would be best.

hello sir,
i have discontinued my engineering degree after 2nd year of engineering,
i cannot afford to spend 2 more years to complete my graduation,
m i eligible to give gate2016 if i pursue btech in 1year? there are few universities affiliated with aicte which provide 1 year btech programs.
Hello manav,
It is clearly written in the education qualification section :
B.E./B.Tech./B.Arch. 4 years after 10+2.
So you would not be eligible for GATE.
For more details please refer GATE 2015 notification : http://www.gate2016.info/gate-2016-brochure/

Hi
i am bharath i did not start preparing for gate 2016 i am mechanical branch i am week in maths but in technical i need some suggestion to study those subjects which will be asked for more marks and my main problem is i cannot remember the topics what i studied so please give some suggestion to clear gate and gate syllabus for mechanical
Hello Bharath,
For GATE 2016 there is nearly 6 months.
So first concentrate more on technical and general aptitude left mathematics right now.
It’s just have 15 marks. If you will left it you will loose only 15 marks.
If you will prepare it you will loose 85 marks. Which I think you dont wanna loose.
If you are weak in technical too than start from basics not just start solving problems.
In GATE exam some times we need to apply more than one theorems, approach.
So we must be clear first in our basics.
For not being able to remember topics there could be 2 reasons :
(1) You are not using right way of understanding/reading as per your mind frequency.
(2) You dont timely revise what you have read.

sir,as success in gate exam depends on individual efforts,can we join in any coaching center whether it is good or bad.my aim is to get 50-60 marks .so,please give me answer
Hello yeswanth,
A good coaching institute can help you better than bad one.
Remember a person with 10-20 year experience in a particular subject is having knowledge always better than a fresh candidate.
So you can use that experience without being experienced.
Final decision is totally depend upon candidate.

Respected Sir
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering. I wanted to know about the fields I am eligible in to apply for M.E./M.Tech through GATE. Also under which subjects should I be appearing for GATE for acquiring admission in the eligible courses. Also wanted to know about the preparation pattern for GATE.
Thanking You
Hello Pavani,
Biomedical Engineering is closely related to Instrumentation Engineering. So it would be better to choose Instrumentation Engineering paper for GATE exam.
Paper pattern & Syllabus for Instrumentation Engineering : http://www.gate2016.info/gate-2016-pattern-syllabus/instrumentation-engineering-in/
Reference Books for Instrumentation Engineering for GATE 2016 : http://www.gate2016.info/gate-2016-books/instrumentation-engineering-in-gate-books/
Study step by step, topic to topic, No one complete their GATE syllabus in a day.
Make a time table for day, week, month and for whole year. Try to complete syllabus as soon as possible as that you can practice more problems later.

Thankyou sir! Had one more query. I am intrested in Biomaterials. Is it such that as I have done Biomedical engineering, I am not eligible for material science engineering?
Hello Pavani,
First tell me :
What is your purpose of attending GATE exam ?
sir, iam studying 3rd year mechanical.is it better to join in the best coaching center ( ace academy hyd) for 2 months or to join in not much good coaching center (ies academy guntur) for 1 year long course .ace costs 36,000, whereas ies costs 20,000.my aim is to get 50-60 marks in gate.so,please give me best answer
Hello yeswanth,
Joining any coaching depends upon many factors like experience of faculty , faculty interaction with candidates, their problem solving techniques, guide and support after class and many more. Research a little about both institutes before taking any big step.

Is it compulsory to have the Percentage above 60% in general.
Hello Arunodaya,
There is no any percentage criteria for attending GATE exam but there is a percentage criteria when you are going to use this for taking admission in any institute for higher education or for applying any PSU for job purpose. Generally almost all colleges and almost all PSUs demanded 60% in B Tech.
I hope know you understand what I mean to say.

Sir, I am going to appear for Gate 2016, i recently got my name changed legally. Now i am worried if i;ll face any troubles applying for Gate as my SSC and graduation certificated hold my old name.
My fears:-
1) Does organising IIT provide any support for uploading Name Change affidavit?
2) In the blank for Candidates name( mandates to fill same name as mentioned in SSC certificates) which name should i give?
3) Can there be any discrepancies leading to cancellation of my application?
Hello Sir,
Changing name is not so hard but when you connect this with your education it would not be a good experience for you.
You would face many problems. As far as I can suggest you, do not change your name in your educational life.
Rest get suggestions from an expert in this field that would be better.

Hi,
The contents of the web is wonderful and very useful,
I want to know what are the eligibilities for writing GATE exams.
a.) U.G is must or Diploma candidates is also eligible ?
b.) Suppose If any one of the paper in the last sem of Btech is not passed is he eligible to writeexam ?
Hello muthukumaran,
(a) Diploma of any kind doesn’t comes under any kind of graduation. So for GATE exam minimum education qualification is bachelor of engineering/technology or Master in science/computer etc.
(b) Yes you are eligible.
Candidates who are currently in the 4th/final year or already completed are only eligible for GATE exam but if you don’t have minimum qualification within the restricted time period then your GATE score will be of no use. It would be like a trial exam.

Thank you for the previous reply. could you please help me in choosing the best engineering colleges in kochi.
Am in confusion whether to put my son in kochi or chennai ? can you advice
Hello needtoknow,
Why an engineer take admission in an engineering college ?
directly saying : mainly for getting a good job.
If you are looking for placement from college then choose a collage with high placement ratio.
If you are looking for a govt job then choose a college with good reputation in education.
If you can find a college with both of these qualities then it would be nice.
