Question Paper pattern- To design a strategy for "SUCCESS"...

In present scenario, there are going to be 25 single mark and 30 two mark questions only from core engineering part. And 5 single mark and 5 two mark questions from General Aptitude part.

We are going to get on an average 2mins for each single mark question and 3mins for each two mark question.

As number of questions is less, from some subjects we may get one single mark question only. Or from some subjects we may get one single mark and one two mark question only.

Here for rescue operation, whole gamut of subject we have to study to get the confidence in that particular subject. At the same time do not leave any subject by seeing toughness of the subject or lack of proficiency. Study min. level topics which are important. Conclusion is If you can study completely, do not leave even cornered topic also. At the same time read all subjects at least important topics.

We should concentrate on linked questions also, as if you get wrong answer for the first question, you can be sure that you lose second question also of course without negative marking. Means, you are going to lose, may be one complete subject or at least strong topic.

Even we have to concentrate on Common Data questions also. Here flexibility comparing with Linked Question is, even by keeping wrong answer for the first question, you may get correct answer for the second question. At the same time, if you do any mistake in taking data given, gone! You will have to face again same situation. Your complete preparation may be wasted in that subject for GATE.

In General Aptitude area, as he mentioned clearly 7 topics. At the same time, there cannot be 7 single mark and 7 two mark questions. So, we can expect one single mark question from 5 topics and one two mark question from 5 topics.
