How to prepare for GATE

Know the Syllabus- Collect the correct syllabus for exam. This will prevent time wastage on non-important topics. Download syllabus from internet, take a printout and paste

it where you study.

Select the Best Reference Books and Material- First start reading books that cover your basic concepts. You can find lots of books with different publications in the online or offline stores, but I am going to share with you some best books which I studied

Ventilation book by GB Misra

Numerical in Ventilation by LC Kaku

3.Identify Which Topics should study at First- After knowing the syllabus make sure that you cover all the topics relating to it but first prepare and revise the topics with more weightage.

Prepare a Study Plan- Make a study plan and stick to it.

Make small targets, daily targets, and weekly targets.

At this stage, 3-4 hours of study would be okay, because you got nearly a year to prepare.Keep targets of 2 or 3 subjects in a semester. Conquer

them.

Solve previous year paper on your own, in case of any doubt refer to solutions of papers in books, but don’t follow them blindly. Always search for better alternatives.

Join some whatsapp discussion group by coachings. In those groups you will find best brains from other colleges also who can help you.

Most important thing have faith in yourself.

After sometime don’t forget to revise topics.

After you have done your share of syllabus, join one test series offered by coachings online.(however I personally recommended Mineportal)
