Questions
How many marks does Engineering Mathematics carry in GATE?
About 13 of the 100 marks in most engineering papers, along with 15 marks of General Aptitude.
Is the syllabus the same for CE, ME and EE?
The core (linear algebra, calculus, ODE, probability, numerical methods) is common; complex variables and transforms are stressed more for EE and ME.
Do you practise NAT (numerical answer) questions?
Yes. Many problems are solved as numerical-answer type, the way GATE asks them.
Is the virtual calculator used?
Yes. Learners practise with the GATE-style on-screen virtual calculator.
How many marks does General Aptitude carry in GATE?
15 marks: 5 one-mark and 5 two-mark questions, common to all GATE papers.
Is spatial aptitude really asked?
Yes. The current GATE GA syllabus includes spatial aptitude (rotation, mirroring, folding), so it is practised here.
Is this useful for placements?
Yes. The same verbal and quantitative skills are tested in campus placements and PSU exams.
Is there negative marking?
For MCQs, yes: 1/3 mark for one-mark and 2/3 mark for two-mark questions; NAT and MSQ have no negative marks.
