As Ive promised many, this is the post to let all know how it all started and ended. Ill be largely focusing on only my preparation and shall
provide suggestion with my own experience for each subject. Since many want it as early as possible Im not taking care of my English in this
post and my sincere apologies if you nd any mistakes or if you nd this post boring. Ill constantly be updating this one. You can post what
ever comments you like but please let them be on GATE alone because I feel it will be useful for many.
The Very Beginning (You can skip this and jump directly to the next section)
In my BTech, the only thing I knew about GATE was that we could do PG in India using GATE scores. I had no idea other than that. It was
because there were hardly two to three persons from each batch writing GATE in our college. Most of those interested in higher studies go
abroad, mostly to decent universities. I was not even thinking of my future plans when I was in my fourth year because I wanted to
concentrate on my project. It was not until the end of my BTech I started planning. I wanted to go abroad for doing my masters in Robotics,
given that I had a decent background. I applied for GRE. I thought about GATE also at this point since I was doubtful whether I could aord
for higher studies in USA.
Slowly I began feeling uncomfortable about leaving my core studies (Electronics). I decided to drop my plans, cancelled my GRE and phoned
the HR manager of the company where I got placed about my interest in doing the job. She accepted my request though I was late by one
month. My job was in Embedded Systems and it was very interesting and challenging. I wanted to write GATE also, so I had applied. It was
winter time in Delhi and Noida in 2010 and I was totally new to the place. I didnt even look into the textbooks. The weekend just before the
exam Sunday, I went for a tour with my friends. On the previous day of the exam I went through the EMT book by Sadiku. Thats all the
preparation I had. The exam was so strange to me that I was surprised to see General Aptitude section. A month after the exam, the results
came out and I got 42 marks with AIR-4898. Out of them, more than 10 marks were from Aptitude. It was not at all surprising or
disappointing but the result infused a kind of obsession.

I was actually willing to go to any IIT, preferably IITD because I would get a scholarship which a professor from a Thailand university told me
about when presenting my Robots at my college. But with this result it was like building castles in the air.
Obsession
When I used to tell any one about my interest in writing GATE they would ask me about my aim. When a colleague asked me the same, my
mind was totally blank. He said, generally people aim for IISc, so what is your interest?. I said I was looking for a good college just for the
sake of saying something. So what really was my aim? If at all I had plans, I had to look for something big, something considered as the best.
And then came a friend who used to say I was aiming for IISc though I never told her. So this is why IISc became the best in my thoughts. I
was not aware of anything other than that. So I started my preparation. This is where the real challenge started and I wanted to give my best.
The Second Aempt
I thought about my conceptual levels in each subject. The only thing that I was comfortable in the syllabus was EMT. Communication
Engineering was the subject that scared me a lot. In the rest, I was condent that I could manage. What I want? I want the best. So to get the
best, you have to overcome the fears. Did it ring any bells? Yes, the lesson from Batman. Unfortunately I cant remember the time I spent on
each subject, but the whole preparation was almost for 10 months starting from April.
So I started with Communication Engineering. I was willing to spend as much time as it would take. I had only weekends, mornings and
nights. I was lile afraid to plan and manage my timings because of sudden surprises in the form of new movie releases, parties thrown by
my friends and oce work. I started with Amplitude Modulation. I had an old book, in view of its edition and also the manufactured date,
borrowed from my friend, Communication Systems, 2nd edition by Simon Haykin. You could break the pages, it was that old! It was not at
all boring as I was reading something very exotic for me. I managed to complete Amplitude Modulation and then the real problem came
when I started Angle Modulation. After a few hours of searching on the internet NPTEL lectures proved to be very useful. Somehow I
managed to complete Angle Modulation also. Digital modulation was very interesting but the book was of an older edition, so you could nd
some mistakes. In my case, I thought I was wrong when I was doubtful about some of the concepts. I just left them thinking that I would get
answers in my revision.
Then I started preparing Analog Electronics from the book Electronic Devices and Circuit Theory by Boylestad and Nashelsky. After
reading each chapter I solved the problems from the same book. I began to feel time running out of my hands after completing 4 or 5
chapters. So the decision was to just read the concepts then to solve problems if time would permit and it never permied as usually.
It was time for some physics, the beautiful Electronic Devices. A friend of mine where I worked gave me the book Solid State Electronic
Devices by Streetman, Banarjee. Initial chapters on Quantum Mechanics were really interesting though I never knew or searched for where
the operators had come from. Reading these chapters for GATE like exam is an overkill but I couldnt resist my interest. I kept on reading it.
The concepts were so interesting that I revised it for almost 3 times, of course after I read the other subjects. This was the rst time I learnt
the usefulness of writing comments in a textbook. It helped me a lot in my revision.
2 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
I had very lile time left for the other subjects, namely Digital Electronics, Network Theory, Signals and Systems, Control Systems,
Electromagnetic Theory and Mathematics. I think it was almost 3 to 4 months left for the exam, but I was a lile condent about these
subjects. Control Systems was my rst choice among them, then Digital, Signals, N/W Theory and EMT came in that order. I hardly spent a
week on maths.
After all these, two weeks to go for the exam. I managed to complete a pending project in the oce at that time, so I asked my TL if he could
grant me two weeks for my preparation. Im very thankful for him to be so generous. That was the time when I made calculations on how to
manage my time. Unfortunately the calculations decided me to spend all my time on revision and no problem solving. Remember it was
winter time in Noida with no one at home. I had to prepare my food all by myself and if you dont eat, the weather doesnt allow you to
read, especially if you are thin. I found three quick to make items that would give me all supplements I need Kichdi (with Daal, Rice and
salt), Omelee and Curd. This was my food for the two weeks.
My mind was so obsessed to get a top rank that I decided to solve all the problems in the exam. My strategy was to directly go to the
common data questions which could be manageable in less time as the data was common for two questions and could get me 4 marks. I was
wrong in all my aspects. The common data question from N/W theory made me spend almost 15 minutes without a result. That was the real
killer. Then I went for 1 mark questions then for two mark ones. I knew I was going to be messed up. After not geing answers for the EMT
questions, my condence levels came down drastically. After three hours, I left a few questions unread from Control Systems and Signals
which were the easiest among all. It was a disaster left me blank minded. I got 32.33 marks with 3360 rank. I always believe that failure and
competition makes you to be beer, so was ready to give it one more try but this time with much more preparation.
Six Months After the Exam
After the results I didnt do any thing for a month except going to oce and chilling out. For a month or two later I went through rst few
chapters of the book Probability, Random Variables and Stochastic Processes by Papoulis. After that I did a Crptography course on
Coursera out of my interest, for one and a half month. I decided to leave my job for full-edged preparation, so submied my resignation
leer and was in notice period for more than two months till July 20th. I could not come out early because of an ongoing project. Meanwhile
my father paid the fee for my coaching at ACE, Abids branch. I was the rst person to apply for GM5 batch, my roll number was 01. I
thought GM meant Good Morning and still I dont know what it stands for.
Six months Before the Exam (The Real Preparation for GATE-13)
The classes started from July 22nd. I had to inevitably miss a few of the initial classes. My actual preparation kicked o from mid August. I
made a schedule and allocated times for each subject depending upon my previous experience. I have uploaded the photo (below) of the
sticky notes on which I wrote down the schedule. I made some changes to the schedule when ever I missed the deadlines. (In fact I never
met them).

4 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
From my job I learnt to gather all the resources rst for doing a project and I applied the same in my preparation. I bought all the books
needed and also bought a dry-erase board for doing rough work. The photo below displays my work place.
In the following lines, Ill be focusing on my preparation for each subject in their chronological order.
Network Theory
This is the subject that I started with and this is the one that was taught last at the coaching institute. I prepared from the text book
Engineering Circuit Analysis by Hayt and Kemmerly. I wrote down the points which I felt tough, in a note book which I knew would help
me in my revision. After each chapter I solved questions from the GATE book by R.K.Kanodia. This paern, I followed for all subjects so I
would not mention it again. After my preparation I felt it was complete and to my surprise it was not. As I said it was taught last at the
institute. I decided not to go for the classes as the classes were running whole day at the end and I was not geing time for other subjects.
One day I had to aend a class as it was sand-witched between two other classes and I was not willing to go all the way to home (about 20
km). Concept related to the question that pestered me in my previous aempt was taught in this class. It was based on reciprocal and
non-reciprocal networks. I had already noted down a few points about this in my notes that I mentioned. The lecture on that day proved my
existing concept wrong. It happened just one and a half month before the exam. That was the time I decided to aend all the classes of
Network Theory. I simply like the material given and the way it deals with all the concepts. The teacher himself prepared it and I admire his
teachings. I thought it would be like a revision for me, but the teachings taught me new concepts and problem solving methods.
Digital Electronics
I was very condent on this one, particularly Combinational and Sequential circuits. I followed the book Digital Logic and Computer
Design by Morris Mano. For the later part which comprises Logic Families and Data Conversion Circuits, I read from Digital Systems:
5 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
Principles and Applications by Ronald J. Tocci as suggested by the teacher at the coaching institute. I really dont like 8085 to be in the
syllabus as no one uses this now in any system. 8086 would have been beer because of its nearness to the current Intel Core processors. In
fact you can write 8086 programs to run on your home PC. What all we get for 8085 are simulators. I checked my concepts on gnusim8085
for Linux. I did not go through any book for this and needed very minimal amount of preparation, mostly from the internet and from the
ACE material. Preparing for 8085 will fetch you 1 or 2 marks easily for sure as there have been questions from this topic in almost all the
previous years, except in 2012. I can surely say that Digital Electronics is the topic which is easier compared to the other topics and it is a
good scoring subject with respect to GATE.
Signals & Systems
This is the rst subject that was taught rst at the institute. I thought I knew the concepts well, but in each class I would go wrong at least
once. That was a very bad situation to be in. I almost paralleled my preparation to the lectures. I strictly followed Signal and Systems by
Oppenheim and Willsky. I didnt require to go through the ACE material as the same was taught in the class. The material was wrien by the
teacher himself.
Electronic Devices
Every time I read the book by Streetman and Banarjee, I felt the concepts new to me. In fact I needed so many revisions to get hold of a bit of
the concepts. My book is now lled with many comments (wrien with pencil) and I had to buy a new one for my colleague who had given
me the book, when I left my job. It was largely like a revision, but I had taken so much time again to read the book. In the very end, two days
before the exam date, I read MOS integration from the same book. The notations used in the problems from R.K.Kanodia, I think, are from
the book Semiconductor Physics and Devices by Donald Neamen. I would have followed Millmans Integrated Electronics if I had not
lost the book, but now I feel happy for my loss. I also looked at the other book Semiconductor Device Fundamentals by R.F. Pierret, but as
said by a professor in an online lecture video, all these books (Streetman/Neamen/Pierret) have largely the same content and I had also
observed the same.
Analog Electronics
This is the subject on which my career would base, so I took it seriously. I found the lectures at the coaching institute to be the best till then. I
followed the notes and also the book by Boylestad and Nashelsky. I also had the book by Sedra and Smith right from my freshers year but
never touched it. I have no explanation for this, probably because I was afraid. Two and a half months before the exam, I went through
Op-Amps, Capacitors in MOSFET, Rectiers, Signal Generators and Wave Shaping Circuits from the book by Sedra and Smith. Two weeks
before, I went through CMOS Inverter, Dierential Amplier and just a week before, Feedback from the same book. The last readings were
my rst and last preparation for the topics mentioned. After all the preparation, I learnt that there are various methods to solve problems on
nding gain, input and output resistances. I did not follow any order in my preparation for this subject.
Control Systems
6 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
The teachings at the institute for this subject proved to be very useful for my preparation. I was having my own preparation at the same time
this subject was taught. I prepared for this and Communication Engineering at the same time as I was running out of my time and I had to
stay at the institute almost the whole day. The teachings really reduced my preparation time. I followed Modern Control Engineering by
Katsushiko Ogata for all the topics. For Stability Analysis, I followed Control Systems Engineering by Norman Nise and for Polar and
Nyquist plots, I followed Schaums Outline of Feedback and Control Systems as suggested by the teacher. I had practical experience in
Control Systems and my initial interest was to go into this eld in Robotics. So I found this subject interesting.
Communication Engineering
After my preparation last time, I was still afraid of this subject because there were still obscure concepts from digital communications, PLL
based demodulation of FM and SNR calculations. I had maintained a notes when I went through NPTEL lectures for Amplitude Modulation
the last time, so I did not start with Analog Modulation. For Digital Communications I went through NPTEL lectures. The lectures were so
useful that after I nished with them, I was able to do Probability of Error calculations, for basic modulation schemes, within 2 to 3 steps. I
didnt even need to remember them. At the same time classes for Analog Modulation were started in the institute which I found very useful
for brushing up my concepts. In my rst preparation Ive mentioned that there are some concepts which I was dubious about in the text
book Communication Systems, 2nd edition by Simon Haykin. I searched for errata for this edition in the internet but did not nd it. So I
looked in the latest edition and to my surprise, the lines which had eaten my days in my rst preparation were not there in the latest edition.
It means that those lines were wrong. I had probably not looked it the previous time because of lack of time. I found a lot of dierence
between my preparation last time and this time. The last year I was struggling to get time and a peaceful day, but this year I was all alone in
my room, free to read the whole day. Also I had read probability theory after my previous aempt and I had not to go through the same
again. This type of preparation proved to be very useful for me. Now Communication Engineering is not all a phantom siing in brain, eating
my nerves.
Electromagnetic Theory
Coming to the very beautiful EMT, it can be divided into two parts Basics and Applications, with respect to GATE syllabus. Basics comprise
Electric Fields, Magnetic Fields, Maxwell equations and Waves. Applications comprise Wave Guides, Transmission Lines and Antennas. We
had two courses in our BTech on these topics; one on Basics in the semester 2-2 and the other on Applications in 4-2. For Basics I followed
Elements of Electromagnetics by Sadiku in 2-2. While doing the course in 4-2, I went through Electromagnetic Waves and Radiation
Systems by Jordan and Balmain for basics as referred by a very senior professor, who taught us the course. I did not touch it again till the
time I started preparing for GATE13. Last time I went through Sadiku. Actually I did not jump directly into the subject. I completed
preparing Dierential Equations and Vector Calculus because of the math involved in EMT is very much depended on the two topics.
Particularly, Vector Calculus was found to be very useful when preparing for Basics. I maintained my own notes for EMT starting with
Vector Calculus. I still feel dicult to grasp my own notes in an hour even though the points are brief. I followed rst few chapters of
Antennas and Wave Propagation by Harish and Sachidananda for Antenna theory.
English
7 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
English is particularly dicult for me as my schooling was in Telugu Medium. I really thank the god for giving me some skills to manage in
this language. I still am really poor in the grammar. The teachings by the English lecturer at the institute were the only source of preparation
given the time I had. All the classes were held at the end and so I was not very sure about it. I looked in the internet for Reading
Comprehension after aending the classes. For Vocabulary, I left it to my luck. The mistake I did was to forget the suggestions given by the
lecturer, in the last class (it was, in fact, the last of all the classes in the institute), to look for Innitives on the net. I bore the brunt of my
ignorance (I lost 1.33 marks for aempting the question on this topic wrong and it is the only question that went wrong).
General Aptitude
Only class room preparation and nothing else. I feel that this one just helps to get above the cut-o mark, otherwise why does an engineer
need to count apples? The questions are usually easy in GATE and one doesnt need extra skills to solve them.
Mathematics
I followed the text books given at the end of this post (I have given the list of all the books I followed). The only thing I would like to write is
that I didnt solve any problems other than those solved in the class room and from previous year papers which I solved in the last month.
One thing I followed was to read the math subjects which are related to the concepts of a technical subject. So math subjects were largely
llers in my preparation.
The Last Month
I remember the last class was on 14th January, so I got less than a month for my revision. I solved 7 previous year question papers, from 2004
to 2010 for almost ten days. I strictly tried to solve them within 3 hours. In the exam, one needs time to bubble, but it does not maer while
solving the previous papers as they used to contain 80 to 85 questions with almost same level of diculty. I did not touch 2011 and 2012
question papers as I had already aempted them.
In the nal two weeks I revised all the topics without solving any problem and revision of all the topics is very essential to score high in
competitive exams. It built up my condence levels. I went to aempt two mock tests at the coaching institute. I did not care what my rank
was in them, I just got the keys, veried my answers and tried to refresh my concepts in which I was not comfortable. It was not until 11
Oclock on the exam day, I gained condence.
Final Hours and Exam Hours
I didnt get sleep till 2:00 or 3:00 in the mid night and woke up early at 6 O clock. I was very tensed about my sleepless mind. I did not stop
reading till 9. I got ready and took my lunch by 11:30. I meditated for 20 minutes. I really dont know whether my meditation is a correct way
of doing it, I just did it. I left for exam center at around 12:00 by bike and reached there before 1 O clock. One of my friends was also giving
the exam and we were luckily allocated the same center. I didnt want to repeat the mistakes done in the previous aempt. I did not take
water almost for three hours before the exam because it was one of the killers in my previous aempt. I also bought a pouch for my
8 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
stationery. I had bought a brand new model of calculator from Casio FX991ES Plus a few weeks before. I really suggest all to buy this one.
Just after I entered the exam hall, I thought for a moment of how to start the exam. Last time the paper was tough and I left easier questions
because of lack of time. This time I decided to aempt easier questions rst and then tougher ones. The only thing left was to execute the
plan well (now a days Im watching IPL and this sentence probably came from the post match presentations).
My question paper set was A. I started from second question because 2, I think, is my lucky number. Then my pencil and mind never
stopped till half an hour before 5 O clock. The plan was executed so well. The questions that I felt tough in the rst go were not so dierent
from the easier ones. The literature just made them look hard to solve, and I think they were made so to scare us. I lled the bubbles and
while lling, I solved 1 or two questions that I had left. There was a linked answer question (buy 1, get 1 free type) from State Space Analysis
which I felt easy but could not solve. I got only 5 minutes to solve it and I was an uer looser for not solving that. Generally there is only a
small dierence in marks between two consecutive ranks. 4 mark dierence may through you out of the toppers league.
One Month After the Exam
I would have been denitely sure about my 1st rank if at all I had solved those 4 marks. Now the original tension came to me and I had
sleepless nights the whole month. Luckily the results were released (probably for load testing) 4 days before the announced date, for one to
two hours. I was notied by my friend about the release and I was surprised to see AIR-1 on my laptop screen. I could not believe it! I told
my parents and the friend about my rank. I did not let any one know just in case. The next day one of the professors from the ACE institute
called me and asked me if had seen the results. I told him I was not sure about them. He said that those results were almost true. Actually I
would not have been known by anyone at the institute, if I hadnt wrien the mock tests well. He said that they had checked my results
because I had got single digit rank in the mock tests. It was not until recent days I checked one of the mock test results in which I got 4th
rank. This also surprised me as I felt I did not aempt it well and I forgot my calculator for that exam. In fact I did not even get time to solve
the general aptitude questions (those questions really lled pages). I knew that the aptitude questions wouldnt be too big to solve in GATE
(from my previous aempts) and so was not much disappointed about them.
The other things I left are:
I did not mention any of the other problems that I faced in my life. That doesnt mean that I didnt face any. I had my own and I never
wanted them to be excuses.
1.
I used to travel by bus for almost 2 to 3 weeks in the initial days, then got my Learners License. My father used to come with me as
pillion, teaching me bike riding for almost a month. He used to take morning walks on the tank-bund which he usually does at home.
Then I got my license and I was enjoying my rides for almost 45 kilo meters a day. I used to start at 5:30 in the morning at my home and
would reach the coaching center at around 6:10. I was hardly on time for the classes which I always regreed.
2.
I carried all the stationery things two in number to the exam hall. It was really lucky for a girl who forgot her calculator. You know how
dicult it would be if someone forgets calculator to GATE (I forgot mine when I took my rst mock test!). She saw me carrying an extra
one and asked me before going into our respective rooms. Her was on the 2nd oor and mine was on the 3rd oor and it was pure
coincidence that I happened to be seen by her in the ground oor. #luckmaers (I use and admire Twier).
3.
9 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
The idea of writing this kind of post is not a sudden feeling after geing the results. Also the 1st ranker speeches are not spontaneous. I
had been practicing them since I started preparation for GATE13. I had been telling my parents and friends about my wish to top. In fact
I used to tell one of my friends in the company about my dream of geing into IISc. On my nal day at the company, there was one of the
founders who got AIR-2 in CSE in his 4th year. I told him that he was my inspiration and he told me to try for 1st rank. It happened just 5
mins before my last look at the oce building. The rst rank was a dream, a wish and more than that an obsession and I happened to just
make the dream real, fulll my wish and get rid of the obsession.
4.
I really thank my friends for their support when I was in Noida. I got two very useful gifts from my friends: a watch given by my
roommates and a bag given by my colleagues. I was not even thinking of buying them and believe me, these were the most useful things
throughout my journey.
5.
My previous post on Machines and Indian Problems tells about my rst ever exposure to the problems here and that made me want to
serve my country with what ever abilities I have.
6.
There are two movies which have inspired me a lot: The Worlds Fastest Indian and October Sky. Both are real stories. 7.
Lastly, Im not sure where to join, though IISc had been my dream. Now Im thinking of alternatives and I hope it will be clear in a couple
of days.

PS:
Now its almost two months since the exam and Im really sorry to post it late. I hope its not too late and Im willing to give suggestions to
any one who approaches me. Ive e-mailed more than 50 members who asked me for suggestions. I didnt e-mail many more who have sent
me congratulation messages. Im really thankful for their wishes and urge to understand my limits to reply all. If many want suggestions for
their preparation, Im up to write another post. Please let me know. I feel that preparation is dierent for dierent persons and those who
are smart enough in their BTech can crack it very easily and those who are hardworking and not so smart have to go with their ability. All the
very best and Adios!

Im not really against foreign studies. They are in fact beer in position. Here also there are some good institutes. The only thing many
dont like is people leaving this country to sele abroad after studying in the universities funded by government and so relatively the fee
is less. It means they are geing indirect help from the government. I dont think we can blame any because the opportunities and living
conditions are not at all comparable to the developed countries.
In my case, Im not going to sele in the other countries. It is not that I love my country to the core (my apologies if it hurts some one),
but I see lot of opportunities to serve here.

April 30, 2013 @ 5:32 pm
But why are you geing into MS?? Only benet of MS over M.Tech is, it provides greater research exposure. But in M.Tech also
research exposure is sucient. It is about of 14 months. So to know whether one will really be interested in research M.Tech is
sucient. Moreover if research is the concern then one can/will have a good phd anyway after masters. So why do you want to

Gaurav said

Just a suggestion. I feel that IITB Microelctronics could have been a best choice for you. One, Microelectronics of IITB is best in
India and two, IITB has a center named CTARA (Center for Technological Alternatives for Rural Areas). That centers does exactly
what your interest are. So you could aended their lectures and could have done collective projects as well.
AW Final decision is always yours. Once again congrats

Hello Sujith,
Congrats on your awesome result. The post is very informative.
If you dont mind, I would like to ask a few questions..
1) Which all NPTEL videos did u watch, and which do you recommend us? (Which videos are good for GATE preparation?)
2) Do you recommend ACE coaching material for theory/problems or are only standard books enough?
3)I wrote GATE this time and got an AIR of around 1400. Im in my nal year and have a placement oer, which I am surely going to
accept it. Im thinking about writing GATE again, so would you like to make any suggestions on how to study optimally while working?
4) I read you left work while you were studying for this time. Did you think of any other options,in case you did not get a good rank in
GATE(like GRE, applying for job again etc- In that case do you think one could get a new job after 1 or 2 years of experience?), or were
you condent enough not to think of alternatives?
Looking forward to your reply either here or my email-id.
Thanks in advance

Thank you.
1) I had gone through IITD Communication Engineering and IITB Digital Communication lectures. It depends on the concepts one
has, to chose which lectures to follow and also I dont know about the other lectures, so cant suggest in particular.
2) I followed N/W theory and S&S materials of ACE. These I feel are very good for GATE. Its always advisable to read text books,
and the other things come next. Which ever book we read, the concepts have to be clear.
3) If you are good at concepts, solving problems may suce. I felt it very hectic to prepare when I was doing job. Any way, concepts
13.

have to be clear and manage your time perfectly. Have sucient free time when you go for revisions. I think whatever suggestions
one gives, the time and eort one spends totally depends the person and his level of understanding. This is because, as I have seen,
there is no common way of preparation among the rankers.
4) I wasnt thinking of any thing other than GATE. I dont know if I was condent, but I was ready to write one more time if I would
not be satised.

Hi Sujith,
Congratulations for your Success, Your path towards the destiny are very informative and very very useful. Thanks for lending your time
for solving lot of queries from GATE Aspirants.
I was in a great confusion whether to choose job or to write GATE 2014. I took Self Study for GATE 2013 for Three months, and took an
AIR 1563 in Instrumentation Stream. and i am going to write GATE 2014 again. I am gonna take GATE Coaching in ACE, Abids for 5
month starting from June 23. At the Same time,i have a job oer from HCL Tech, which i have to join after August. I was confused
whether to join HCL Tech or to Proceed with my GATE preparation.
i have dropped already an year for GATE 2013, and i am going to drop one more year for GATE 2014.
Since i have to spend ve months in Hostel, Can you please tell me how far ACE coaching and their materials, helped you in your
Preparation.
And can you please send yours and Rohit P Ronge Email ID (if you have), it will be very helpful for my preparation

Thank you and congrats for your rank too. Yes, I appeared without preparation. Some 80+ people appeared and I think still 120+ will
appear on 31st May. 13 were shortlisted for the interview after the exam out of which 2 were selected for the program. I was among
the 13 but not among the 2. If you are looking to get into this, I suggest you to strictly go through the video lectures mentioned in the
MS-TII FAQ section. Also solve the problem sets of the courses. In the second year, you have to work at TI as intern. They mentioned
additional 10K making the total salary 30K while working as Intern. The job is guaranteed with 11 LPA. I hope this info is helpful.
Im actually aiming for the MS program there. As far as I know, placements for the MTech are good.

hi sujith,
congrats for your awesome result..its a very good inspiration for those students who didnt make good rank in 1st aempt..They will
denitely learn from you.I want to know some answers
1) what is the contribution of a coaching institute for gate preparation(especially ace eng academy)
2)I hv heard that in ace eng. academy ,in 1 batch total 5000 students study..is it possible to ask doubts and clarify within class.
3) Suppose any students have some doubts in some subject ,then weather teacher will help personally or weather we can approach to a
faculty
4)what was your mode of preparation weather group study or self study?if group study ,then how did you nd ambitious students?
5) i wrote gate 2013 ,but didnt join any coaching but during my preparation the subject which i studied more was communication and
signal system, but i never get good marks in these subject,even in gate 2013,i got negative in both subject so can u comment something on
this!
5)I nished RK knodia and some other author but what i feel that in some topics i need more practices , so i need some dicult question
only in some selected topics .how can i get these things?

Thank you.
1) I think Ive already mentioned the contribution in the post. It was helpful in preparing for GATE.
2) It is not possible to have 5000 people in a class room. There are no more than 200 to 300 per class. You can certainly ask doubts and
get them claried in the class. The faculty are really helpful.
3) Self study.
4) I cant comment, but I believe that the more one strives the beer the results are. The amount of hard work depends on ones level
of understanding.
5) You can solve problems from text books.

Hi, thank you very much for the detailed description and very motivational blog. You truly are a very helpful person.
I am also resigning from my job this year and will be free by the beginning of August to prepare for GATE. But I have decided to go home
and do my studies from there. However there is no good coaching classes available in my hometown. So I will take a correspondence
course and later maybe go for a crash course for a month or two in Delhi or Hyderabad. Do you think my decision of self study at home is
wrong? I want to study from home as I think there is very lile distractions for self-study.

I can give you only one suggestion about your decision. Dont ask any one about the correctness of your decision. This suggestion is

right.

which book is good for question for EC in gate . which has topic wise question on every concept or trick that is required in GATE?

I relied largely on previous year problems and problems from R.K.Kanodia. I used to solve example problems given in the texts
and also some texts mention problem numbers, in the theory, that you should go through for some derivations. Those help us to
understand concepts well. The boom line is to understand the concepts well.

why you were so obsessed to study or obsessed to get top rank?
what is your real goal? whether you want to be a scientist or just want good salary job in multinational company .
my problem is that i stay focused for 1or 2 days then i loose interest then after 3 to 4 day again i get motivated for study .
So, my main question is that how to get obsessed like you and what you did when you get distracted from your goal?

there is huge scope in energy engineering as i think.
and please tell that would you enroll for PhD in future ?

A good strategy is to solve as many problems as you can. It helps clear your concepts I dont think GATE questions are really
practical oriented. As far as Ive seen they are all conceptual and test your problem solving skills.

Hi Sujit,
First of all, a worm-hearted congratulation from me on being the best.
Secondly, I have a few questions to you. I would deeply feel honoured if you guide me to the answers.
I am puing the questions in a list-
36.
39 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
1. What book would you suggest to practise problems from in subjects (i) Analog Circuits (ii) Electronic Devices (iii) EM Theory and (iv)
Signals & Systems ?
2. Which book would you suggest me to refer to for grasping the concepts of Analog Circuits and Electronic Devices ?
3. Which book, according to you, is the most helpful in Network Theory to develop and clear the concepts ?
I need to be sure. I wrote GATE this February and got AIR 13186. I am really keen to make it to the top 100. Your guidance would literally
be divine for me.

Analog : Sedra &Smith
Devices : Streetman & Banerjee
EMT : Jordan & Balmain
Signals & Systems : Oppenheim & Willsky
Network Theory : Hayt & Kemmerly
I havent gone through the books other than those mentioned in the PDF in my post, so I cant really help you with which one is the
best.

First, they conducted wrien test for 1 hour. We had to answer 20 questions,10 one mark ones and 10 two mark ones. We had
questions on op-amps, small signal analyses and networks. As far as I remember we had questions on the following topics:
1) Finding the inverting and non-inverting terminals of op-amps in a feedback loop and nding gain of the same.
2) Two port networks.
3) Thevenin equivalents.
4) BJT biasing and small signal analysis two questions on this topic.
5) RC/RL circuits, charging and discharging, etc.
In the interview, they asked the questions that we hadnt solved in the exam or those we had answered wrong.
Go through the lectures on op-amps and RLC circuits. Most of the questions are from these. Also go through T and PI equivalents of
BJT. They will denitely ask question on nding the terminals of op-amps in a feedback loop.
The questions asked by TI sta in the interview were very basic and one can easily answer them. If you happen to miss a few
questions in the exam, nd the answers after the exam. You should revise the basics because the questions are really on basic level of
understanding. Also try to solve the problem sets given in the course websites.

Should I go to ACE Hyderabad because I have heard its reputation a lot or join Made Easy Delhi only in my home city? I am very much

I have some questions regarding the preparation of GATE. The exam is closing in on FEB2014 if im not wrong. I still have only 8 months
to go. I Guess you could possibly avorsome a platform for the students of my state. Could you oer a schedule for me i.e. How many
months should i need to wipe out the basics of all subjects out the time i left? Which subject can i possibly prioritize longer time in
problem solving and conceptual vice verse?

I suggest you to complete your rst preparation 2 months before the exam date. Those 2 months may be utilized for 2 revisions. You

44 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
may spend more time on the subjects you feel dicult because GATE gives, on an average, equal weightage to all the subjects. In all
the subjects, problem solving is very important and solve problems like you are learning concepts from them. Of course, there are a
few concepts from Devices which are theoretical and they dont require problem solving.

On the emphasis of problem solving, is there any books as equally facilitates the practice coach for problems as RK Kanodia? If any, could

Solve all the problems that are taught in the class room. Make notes of the concepts and problems that you dont follow and get them
claried in the classroom. This is all I can suggest. Most of the problems that are discussed in the class room are from previous year
papers, so pay aention to them. All the best.

Hi sujith,

provided here is really fabulous. the way you explained each subject was awesome. I still wonder how could you complete 100% syllabus
, but later understood , it is nothing but dedication . I got 3370 rank (ECE) in GATE-2013. Actually i wanted to ask you one personal
question, i took coaching from ACE in 3rd year of my B.Tech but unfortunately i was not allowed to take exam in 2012 , there i missed an
opportunity for the rst time to take GATE Later in my 4th year i managed my self both college and self preparation didnt go coaching
again . i thought i could do it . but i didnt. i am very weak in communications especially random variables and probability of error
concepts , transmission lines in EMT, electronic devices that too fet based problems .let me know whether i should take coaching or self
preparation is sucient ??

Its good that you have concerns for your future even before you join college. If you study the concepts right from your fresher year,
you may not need special coaching. Electronics is a beautiful subject which involves physics and maths. I suggest you to read the
concepts keeping in mind that each thing you read has practical importance. Problem solving is very important and solve problems

Congrats sujith kumar! I have one doubt.how did u remember the formulas for various subjects.subjects like
signals,communication,network theory we need not worry much i guess.But for subjects like electronic devices,analog
circuits,EMF,control systems and formulas in maths are dicult to remember,the other way of going from the base to get to the formula
is also time consuming and risky.How did u manage this,it will be of immense help if u answer this.once again congo! and all the best for
ur future

sujithkumarb said
June 28, 2013 @ 9:52 am
I felt remembering formulae in Electronic Devices easy, probably because I had gone through the derivations many times. I would
check the dimensions each time I put down a formula on paper from my memory, for verication.
In EM theory, I think the eld equations in Waveguides are dicult to remember because they are confusing. You may not also derive
them in the exam. So, I found out a way to remember them. Antenna theory also needs the eld equations to be remembered. Rest all
concepts can be managed.
I did not remember any thing from Control Systems because there are none, I think.
In maths, only formulae from Calculus need to be remembered.
63.

53 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
What I feel is that, even if you try to remember something, after a while, memory seems to be erased. Try to get the essence of the
concepts and remember the formulae only before you aempt an exam or before you solve problems.
BTW, its actually a good doubt.

Also please tell me where to look for practice questions for the above topics which are at par with the level of GATE because what i
found was that in almost all standard books (haykin,proakis etc.) derivations are given but problems are not dealt nicely-so it becomes
more theoretical.

I have aempted GATE 2013 ECE, but could not get an eligible score.
I am trying for GATE 2014.
I have a job and could not leave it due to some personal reasons.
I have just started preparing from Aug 1st and I have to begin from scratch as I work in an IT company for past 3 years and no touch with
the topics for quite a long time. I have some of the below clarications:
1) How many hours do I need to spend minimum a day to get a good rank?
2) Is NPTEL video and web lectures helpful in preparation?
3) Is the correspondence study material of ACE same as that of the regular classroom coaching? How much is it useful in GATE
preparation? Or can I obtain a good score by preparing from the textbooks alone mentioned by you?
Even though I have start preparing, I am still in confusion, which materials to follow, how to get enough number of problems related to
each topic to practice and what timetable to set etc
It will be very helpful to me if you provide a reply for me. So, Please be kind enough to reply back.
Thank you in advance!
Regards,
Ramya

Hello, I really liked and inspired by your story(OK not a story). I found it in the middle of search results on how to prepare for a two digit
gate rank. So I am one like you, aempted in my nal year (with you in 2013), and got a 1815 rank, which I thought was between OK and
good (isnt it?). Now I am preparing for GATE 2014. I think (even my dad too) that I have enough potential but, I wont use it totally, or
concentrate enough.

65 of 101 28/03/2014 6:54 PM
1.I want to know from you, how does one really stick to it. How to make it our obsession.
2.And also isnt it enough if we prepare for the topics listed in syllabus individually, should we cram every page of all reference books?
3.I am also afraid of the subject Communications like you, but in addition to that, I am also of EMT, and vectors. Any suggestions on
how to overcome these?
4.As you know, I have less than 6 months time, I started preparation a fortnight back, and in the middle of control systems, I want to
know in your opinion is it possible for me to get a 2 digit rank this year, with the time?

How to prepare for GATE-2014.?
Its online for the First time and also Numerical Questions are also included.
So what should be the preparation strategy of a candidate so that He/She can edge the EXAM with the highest score..?
How dierent should this preparation strategy be dierent from the one a candidate has been used to prepare GATE for the previous
years (i.e. 2013,2014,2011 etc..)..?
How Online Tests can help a candidate in GATE-2014..?Is it necessary..? Or is it an option of the candidate preparing for the
examination..?
Please do advice me as these are the questions i am pondering of for a couple of weeks..

Hey Sujith, 1st of all congratulations to you. For your courageous thinking. Actually it matched with mine. Im passed out B. Tech this
year. Since from 3rd year of my college Im thinking to prepare properly for GATE. But all the time Im messing up. I had to complete my
Oracle Global Certication. at the time of 6th sem I did it. So couldnt concentrate for GATE. Again at fourth year I had to manage a job.
Again the same happened. But GATE was always in my dream. Then now Im doing a job at Kolkata as a Web Developer. Working on
Joomla and WordPress. But I realized Im not for this one. My dream is dierent. Mailed my HR for the resignation. Because I was geing
weak after giving the most of the time (09:30 a.m. to 08:10 or 08:30 p.m.) at oce project work, it was so tiring to spent time N/W or OS or
Engineering Maths. I could sleep only for 4 hours. But my HR refused to give me the break only because my bond period. So Im in a
dilemma. Hope god will make a good solution very soon. But it was very inspiring for me. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
And congratulations to you again for your future.
And this website can be given a more beer look as I have worked on WordPress. If you dont mind Id say make a banner at the top of
the site with all your personal pics which you added laer. Those images will fetched from the database. Any way it was good see this
blog. God bless you.

Hi Sujith. Congrats on your splendid achievement !!! My name is Abhijeet Pedgaonkar. Im a GATE aspirant. Thank u very much for
posting the list of standard books that you have followed. That has simplied my preparation to a large extent. I was searching for some

exactly what I was looking for. So thank you. Can I know where did you do your B.Tech ? How is the academics in IIT? How is it dierent

answers, there i found two problems, i am unable to solve those problems, please help me to solve those kind of problems. I am
mentioning those problems below.
1) Determine the base of the numbers in each case for the following operations to be correct:
(a) 14/2 = 5 (b) 54/4 = 13 (c) 24 + 17 = 40.
2) The solutions to the quadratic equation x 2 11x + 22 = 0 are x = 3 and x = 6. What is the
base of the numbers?

hi brother this is the solution for this pb.
1a) consider base as x and convert this to decimal so numerator will be 4+x and denominator will be 2 and rhs is 5 solve for x similarly
for 1b and 1c
for 2nd pb use sum of roots = (-b/a) and product of roots is (C/a) using these properties this can be solved.

Dear Sujith,
Your blog keeps on serving batches after batches of GATE aspirants.
I am one among the GATE 2014 aspirants.
It will be very helpful if can share your thoughts on how to cope with the social and familial activities during preparation at home.
Your words made a lot of sense in this regard that goes I did not mention any of the other problems that I faced in my life. That doesnt
mean that I didnt face any. I had my own and I never wanted them to be excuses. Hope a lile bit of illustration, generic or specic,
would make it easier to relate to and in turn solve others.
Best wishes for your future endeavors, especially the big ones

hello big brother your journey of topping gate has become a true inspiration for me. your story is almost the same as mine. i appeared
in gate 2013 . i was a 4th year student then and i qualied with 30 marks. then i worked very hard for the 2014 gate and just like you
messed up in exam even though my preparation was goodi was able to solve the problems but my speed was not enough and i could
not even see 15 questions. the results wiil be out on 28th march..hope to get 40 marks. but that is not satisfactory because i want to get a
psu job and not m.tech..i will work much more harder and will get the top rank in gate 2015..thanks for providing condence to all the
mediocre students like me.
by the way forgot to mention my stream is electrical.
thanks a ton . do reply
