Prepare a time table and stick to it:  The last month is very important for candidates to finalise their preparation. During the last month, candidates need to revise all the topics and chapters they have studied so far. They must also attempt more and more question to have clarity on concepts related to the paper. For candidates who have not prepared a schedule to revise for GATE 2021 exam, it’s high time to get into a routine. For those who already have a schedule to follow, they are advised to enhance their preparation hours for GATE IIT Bombay.

Practising GATE mock tests and previous year question papers: In the last month, candidates must attempt GATE 2021 mock tests. Subject-wise mock tests are available on the official site of GATE. Other than that, candidates can also join test series offered by various coaching institutes to practice questions related to the subject/paper. Moreover, candidates should also attempt the GATE previous year question papers to understand the difficulty level of problems and their preparation level.

Short notes: While revising the entire subject/paper for GATE exam 2021 or any other exam, it is always advisable to prepare short notes of whatever deems important from exam point of view. This practice helps candidates revise and remember again through what was read earlier. In addition to that, short notes help candidates in revising the entire syllabus one or two days before the exam.  Along with short notes, candidates must also note down all the formulas at one place. Going through the formulas a few hours before the same will help them to keep remember the same during the exam.

The above tips will help candidates to revise their studies and better their preparation for GATE 2021. Along with this, students must also take precautions to protect themselves from COVID-19 infection.
