Re: Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering preparation tips

As you want to get the details of Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering preparation tips so here it is for you:

Solve objective type (especially numericals) questions as much as possible.

Do not practice questions in rough. You may need to see the solutions at the time of revision.

Go through previous year papers (say last 10 years) to check your knowledge and note the distribution of different topics.

Keep preparing your personal notes as you cover topics.

No need to cover the entire syllabus.

Revision is one of the most important step of the preparation process (around 20 days before examination).

Follow your notes during this time and solve time-bound question papers (preferrably last year papers).

Do not make any guesses in the paper. If possible, try to eliminate the choices by minimum calculation/analysis.

Here for your reference I am givbing you the syllabus of GATE Civil Engineering:
