Preparation Tips
The following are simple preparation tips to score well in the GATE - Electrical and Electronics Engineering.
The best technique to get a top rank in GATE is solve as many number of old question papers as possible.
Be clear with the concepts without having any confusions
Stick to only one book rather than referring many books for a single subject
