- Identify high-priority topics based on previous years' question patterns.
- Emphasize the topics that have high weightage and which are asked more frequently.
- Classify topics into ranks:
- Main technical topics with maximum marks.
- Medium-Weightage: The supporting topics that come moderate in difficulty and relevance.
- Low-Weightage: The ones that come less often in the question paper.
2. Set clear objectives
- Divide the two months into eight weeks by measurable deliverables
- Week 1–2: High-weightage core topics and week 3–4: medium-weightage topic
- SMART Goals
- Specific: Identify what has to be covered
- Measurable: Measure progress for instance, solve 50 questions in a day
- Achievable -balanced student, to-do, and revision.
- Reasonable: The workload must always be within the capability
- Time-bound: Set time boundaries for each topic.
3. Time management for Study End
- 8-10 hours/day Daily Schedule
- New Concepts/New Syllabus - 4 Hours.
- 2–3 Hours Review of covered material.
- 2 Hours Mock test, PYQs, or any question in that subject.
- Increase Productivity
- Study the most challenging items during your most productive periods.
- Only spend it when idle so much.
4. Weak Spots Emphasis
- Weak spots- Identification of weak areas after attempting a mock test and self-study.
- Practice: Spend hours here to perfect weak areas to one's best confidence.
- Building up of Confidence: Alternate between Weak and Strong spots to go on with continuity.
5. Sample paper and PYQs
- Mock Tests:
- Take 2-3 full-length mock tests every week with time restrictions.
- Increase it to 3-4 in a week during the last month.
- Speed, accuracy, and strategies to pick questions at the time of selection of questions.
- Past Year Questions (PYQs)
- Practice PYQs daily to get habituated to the pattern of the examination.
- Trend Analysis: Topic Trends: Level Trends.
GATE Exam Revision Techniques
1. Summary of notes
- Brief Summary:
- Put together a summary of each topic with key formulas, definitions, and concepts.
- Focus on tricky topics and main derivations for easy revision.
- Use flowcharts, tables, and diagrams for complex issues.
- For example: circuit diagrams in electrical engineering, and process flow in chemical engineering.
2. Use flashcards and mnemonics
- Flashcards:
- Prepare flashcards for formulas, theorems, and key points.
- Use them on short revisions or during trips.
- Mnemonics
- Simplify the complicated by designing memory aids.
- For example, "King Henry Died Drinking Chocolate Milk" for metric prefixes.
3. Periodical reviews
- Revision daily Use 1-2 hours daily for review of previous concepts.
- Weekly Review:
- Set aside one day a week to review all topics covered so far.
- Use mock test results as guide areas of focus.
4. Adopt a subject-wise approach
- Focus on one topic and provide the depth it requires.
- Interleave all that is learned so far.
- Integrated Learning:
- Applications then might better connect subjects.
