Mistakes to Avoid to Crack the GATE Exam

Candidates should avoid the following mistakes mentioned below to secure good scores and rank in the GATE exam.

  • Pay proper attention towards your undergraduate college studies while preparing for the GATE Syllabus otherwise, you will find many subjects/topics new.

  • Refrain from preparing for any other competitive test, such as IES, concurrently with the GATE exam, as this would significantly bring down your chances of success in either of these examinations. You should solely focus on studying the GATE Syllabus.

  • Mock tests provide real time exam experience and you should undertake a good number of these mock tests to be fully prepared for the exam.

  • In addition to the mock tests, don't forget to solve the previous year's GATE question papers.

  • Make revision notes from the early days of your GATE preparation as it would make you aware of your areas of improvement and remind you to put extra effort into them.

  • Refrain from following a preparation strategy that fills you with self-doubt instead of confidence.

  • Avoid taking excessive stress about the GATE exam and refrain from overthinking.
