When Should I Start Preparation For GATE Electrical Engineering (EE)?
The best time to start preparing for GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) is the first time you heard or thought about it while purshuing graduate degree in engineering. Now as per our experience, there are mainly 5 different time-period in which students normally hear or think about GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) Exam. Identify your time-period and start preparing accordingly.
| Time-Period | When To Start Preparation For GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) |
| Thinking or planning to prepare 3-4 months prior to actual GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) exam | If you are thinking or planning to prepare and you have left with 3-4 months in hand, it would be best to plan & prepare for GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) Exam using the bottoms-up approach. Start with solving GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) section tests and Mocks of Career Avenues course and not with theory. Whichever questions you are not able to answer / understand, read up theory only on those topics. |
| Thinking or planning to prepare 6-8 months prior to actual GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) exam (typically students who start in 7 semester) | If you are thinking or planning to prepare you have 6-8 months in hand, plan a schedule of 4-5 months with 2-3 weeks per GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) subject. Make sure that after every 2 GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) subjects, you keep 1 week free for practice tests. For each subject, study the subject from Career Avenues theory material and solve the questions in the book. After finishing 2 subjects, answer the online section tests from Career Avenues test series. Do this for 4-5 months. After finishing all subjects, revise all subjects (1 per week) and keep taking 1-2 Mocks each week. |
| Thinking or planning to prepare 10-18 months prior to actual GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) exam (typically students who start in 5th or 6th semester) | If you are thinking or planning to prepare and you have 10-18 months in hand, this is the best time to plan & prepare for GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) seriously. Choose GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) subjects that you have studied upto 4th semester in your college first. For each subject, study the subject from Career Avenues theory material and solve the questions in the book. Do this for 3-4 months. Do not answer section tests or Mocks now. Now choose subjects from 5th, 6th and 7th semester of your college. For each subject, study the subject from Career Avenues theory material and solve the questions in the book. Do this for 3-4 months. You are ready now for tests and revision. Start solving online section tests and Mocks of Career Avenues course. Whichever questions you are not able to answer / understand, go back to theory booklets and once again read up theory only on those topics. |
| Taken GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) in the past but did not plan & prepare seriously earlier | This is as good as NO preparation. So start from scratch. Choose study plan based on how much months you still have for GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) Exam. Use one of the above 3 study plans. |
| Taken GATE Electrical Engg. (EE) in the past and also planed & prepared seriously earlier | It is important to identify areas that you are strong and weak in. Make strong areas stronger while at the same time work to remove weaknesses. Contact our faculty who will help you make a personalized plan, write to info@cavgate.com |
Strategy To Prepare For GATE Electrical Engineering (EE) Exam
Steps And Strategy To Prepare For GATE Electrical (EE) Exam
- Take a diagnostic test – best diagnostic test is a GATE paper of any of the previous 3 years.
- Note down what you have scored and what was the actual GATE qualifying score cut-off. Note that qualification does not help you much. What you need is a good score. So note the good score mentioned above and measure the gap between your score and a good score.
- Note the GATE syllabus and mark your topics that you are good at. First try to master subjects that you are good at.
- However, some subjects like Analog and Digital Electronics, Conrol System and Power Systems have a high weightage. So you should definitely prepare these.
- General Aptitude does not require preparation. It requires practice. So just practice solving Aptitude questions every day for 30 minutes.
- Mathematics may have a very high weightage. But note that to get these 6-10 marks, what you have to study and practice is typically more than a core subject. So if you wish to eliminate some topics in Maths, it is fine. Master topics that you are good at.
- Take lots of section tests and Mocks. Career Avenues provides an excellent test series for GATE Electrical (EE). For more details click here.
- In case you require focused GATE study material and books, you should take Career Avenues GATE Electrical (EE) study material which has been made by IIT alumni and is focused towards GATE. For more details click here.

Best Study Material For GATE Electrical Engineering (EE) Exam Preparation In India
Best Study Material For GATE Electrical (EE) Exam Preparation In India
There are two types of GATE Electrical (EE) Exam Preparation Study Material:
- Single Books for entire GATE Electrical (EE) Branch
& - A Set Of Books (typically broken-up subject wise) for GATE Electrical (EE) Branch.
| Let us discus both types of GATE Electrical (EE) Exam Preparation Study Material | |
| Single Books: | Again, these are of two types: Only Past GATE Electrical (EE) Questions (about 200-300 pages books): These are good books to have, but many of these books have lots of errors and wrong answers. Books written by good coaching institutes are normally more reliable than those printed by general publishing companies. Theory + Questions Books (about 800-1500 pages books): These are not strongly recommended. They do not have theory in detail, and only contain brief points. These books could be partly useful while doing revision after complete GATE Electrical (EE) preparation, but not good for complete comprehensive GATE Electrical (EE) exam preparation. |
| Set Of Books: | Normally Known As Study Material. These are very good books to prepare for GATE Electrical (EE) Exam They contain comprehensive theory focused on GATE Electrical (EE); and have lots of solved questions. But some of the coaching institutes provide limited theory. So make sure you go through the sample of the books before you purchase. CAREER AVENUES has the best Study Material for GATE Electrical (EE) Branch. |

Best Test Series For GATE Electrical Engineering (EE) Exam Preparation In India
Best Test Series For GATE Electrical (EE) Exam Preparation In India.
There are many good Test Series for GATE Electrical (EE) Exam Preparation. But student should be able to identify the good and the not so good test series before making a purchase.
The key points to note are –
- Many Test Series are very tough and are not of GATE Electrical (EE) level. Most Questions of GATE Electrical (EE) can be solved in maximum of 3-4 minutes. But if a test series gives questions which a student will take many steps to calculate and 8-10 minutes to solve, then test series is not having GATE Electrical (EE) type of questions.
- Many institutes who train both for GATE and IES mix questions from both types of tests.
This is not a good test series as the type and style of questions of both exams are different. - Blocking Test Series:
Some institutes have a practice of blocking your test series if you do not submit your GATE Admit Card details. This is an illegal practice. When you have purchased a product, at no point does any institute have the right to block access on such frivolous grounds. - CAREER AVENUES provides an excellent Test Series for the GATE Electrical (EE) Branch.
Here are the features of Career Avenues GATE Electrical (EE) Test Series.
- GATE Electrical (EE) like platform including virtual calculator.
- Strong GATE Electrical (EE) test analysis that help you understand your strong and weak areas.
- Require very little internet bandwidth.
- Can be answered on Smart-Phones as well.
- All numerical questions with detailed explanations.
- All India Rankings for select mock papers.
- Questions made by GATE Electrical (EE) toppers, of the perfect level.
Are NPTEL Electrical Engineering (EE) Videos Useful For GATE Exam Preparation?
NPTEL Videos And GATE Electrical (EE) Exam Preparation
- NPTEL Videos are great videos for learning a subject. They have been made by the best teachers in India, and are very detailed.
However, in our opinion, they are only partly useful for GATE Electrical (EE) exam prepararion. - The NPTEL Videos were not made from the perspective to coach for GATE Electrical (EE). They were made to teach/explain a subject. It is similar to subject books written by good authors. They teach the entire subject.
- But GATE Electrical (EE) is focused on a few parts of the subject and is more application oriented.
- So you should ideally use some GATE Electrical (EE) focused study material or Video Lectures to prepare for GATE Electrical (EE). In parts of the subject where you may want to go in depth, you may refer to NPTEL Videos.
It Is Very Important That Students Use GATE Electrical (EE) Focused Video Lectures. That Being So, Our Dedicated IITian Faculties At CAREER AVENUES With Years Of Experience While Facilitating GATE Electrical (EE) Coaching, Have Prepared Comprehensive Videos Focused On GATE Electrical (EE) Exam.
