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.
