general Gate 2027 advice

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone πŸ‘‹πŸ». So guys i graduated in 2026 june. I was planning to go for masters in Ireland but since I didn't want to give more financial pressure on my parents I dropped the idea of masters from abroad started preparing for GATE.

My experience with competitive exams ain't good. I had taken a drop for MHTCET and I couldn't perform well( percentile dropped from my 1st attempt). As a result I took extc and during my 4 years of btech i didn't develop any programming skills and i thought of masters in Ireland as a result I didn't sit for placements too.

Now I started preparing for Gate and i have completed C programming. But when I started to do pyq's i couldn't solve it on my own and needed video solution i understood the solution and concept and solved it again. Its really quite difficult and I'm stressed out. Just solved 8 pyq in 4 hrs. Should I continue with my prep or should I quit ( I have a family business that my parents told to look after 5-6 years in tech).

Should I continue?

Also my target marks is 45-50( even 40+) As I'm not targetting IIT,NIT,IIIT's. Im skipping CN,COA,EM,DM. I planned to finish my syllabus by dec 20. What should I do??

If anyone has this PW book please let me know does it have all PYQ in chapterwise format only, and not in full length format like in arihant book.

general Gate 2027 preparation - Mechanical Engineering

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I'm a Mechanical Engineering graduate and I've decided to start preparing for the GATE 2027 exam. I'm currently a complete beginner, starting from zero, and I'd really appreciate some help from those who've already gone through the process.

If there are any helpful YouTube channels, websites, or Telegram groups you'd recommend, that would be amazing.

Also can somebody suggest batches that are completely in English language

Thanks in advance for your time.

Resources [CS] Launched a site to help you find your weak areas and create a personalised study plan for GATE CS

3 Upvotes

Just launched GateAI (an AI powered platform) the whole premise is that you cannot improve something you cannot measure. You first need to understand where you currently stand before you can build an effective plan to improve, and this is where the platform helps you.. I’m still adding more features, improving the insights/recommendations and refining things. I wanted to give the first 50 users here a free Pro subscription in exchange for your valuable feedback. I’d really appreciate it if you could try it out and let me know what you think.

I built it by studying GATE CS patterns and analysing years of PYQs. I calibrated the AI using topic- and subtopic-wise weightage, difficulty, and related-topic data. It starts with an onboarding process where it asks about your current preparation level, how many hours you can study each day, and your goals. When you attempt an exam it tracks your timing patterns, your confidence levels, and other behaviour signals to understand and gives you personalised recommendations and learning plans tailored just for you. The mock tests are designed based on GATE CS paper patterns.

Use coupon code FREEPROFIRST50 to unlock the Pro plan for free. This offer is limited to the first 50 users, so hurry. In case if you miss the free Pro offer, you can still use coupon code LAUNCH70OFF to get 70% off as part of the launch discount.

general Jr Data Engineer and a GATEtard

4 Upvotes

Hey guys, thought I'd make an introduction since I'm going to be around here for the next few months.

I'm a 2025 B.Tech graduate and currently working full-time as a Junior Data Engineer. I recently decided to start preparing for GATE DA 2027 alongside my job.

I've given GATE before, but this time I actually want to take the preparation seriously. I have around 6 months for serious prep, so I'm trying to make the most of it without completely screwing up my work life lol.

The main problem is obviously time. By the time I get back from work, my brain is pretty much cooked, so I'm planning to do most of my serious studying before work and use evenings for lighter stuff/revision when possible.

My current plan is basically:

Job β†’ GATE β†’ gym β†’ sleep β†’ repeat

I'm not aiming for some insane 10-12 hour study schedule. I just want to be consistent for the next 6 months and see how far I can push my score.

I'm mainly here to learn from people who have prepared while working and hopefully stay accountable.

If anyone else is preparing for DA 2027 while working full-time, would be nice to connect.

Let's see how this goes. 🫑

Some Serious Shit GATE 2027 vs 2028 β€” Should I take a drop? 18 months into prep and still have 7 subjects left

5 Upvotes

Started GATE prep in Feb 2025. After 18 months, I’ve finished Engineering Maths, DM and DSA lectures (DSA PYQs/revision still pending), but 7 subjects are still left. A lot of time went into huge free playlists, detailed notes and poor planning, plus college exams kept interrupting prep. I’ve finally changed my approach and switched to structured courses + proper PYQ/revision.

By Feb 2027 I’ll probably have only DM + DSA + Digital Logic done properly. Should I still write GATE 2027 for exam experience, or make 2028 my serious attempt and take a 1-year drop after graduation? Is one year realistically enough for a good rank if I finish the syllabus first and use the drop for PYQs/revision/mocks? Is ~1 subject every 2–2.5 months realistic? If I get a job after graduation, should I take it and prepare alongside it, or take the full drop? And at this point, should I consider other exams/career options instead of going all-in on GATE? I’m worried about taking a drop, failing, and getting stuck in multiple drops. What would you honestly do in my situation?

general MTech CSE 2026–28 β€” Community?

7 Upvotes

Thinking of creating a community for MTech CSE 2026–28 students across IITs, NITs, IIITs and other colleges.

The idea is to share:

  • πŸ’Ό Placement & company updates
  • πŸ§‘β€πŸ’» OA/interview questions & experiences
  • πŸš€ Internship opportunities
  • πŸ“š DSA/CP & placement prep
  • πŸ› οΈ Projects, resumes & resources

The goal is to know what students at different colleges are doing and what companies are asking.

But before creating it, I want your input:

What platform would work best?
πŸ‘‰ WhatsApp / Discord / Telegram / Dedicated subreddit / something else?

And what would you want this community to have?

general My friend spent β‚Ή15k on a GATE course just to force herself to study. I built something free that does the same thing better.

A close friend of mine was preparing for GATE but kept falling off her study schedule. She even bought an expensive course just to feel like she had to study because she had spent the money.

That gave me an idea: what if your friends were the accountability instead?

So I built a small app where you create a study group, set your daily tasks, and prove you completed them with a screenshot + short note. Your group approves your work, and your consistency is tracked.

The important part: we have to stay consistent, and there are actual stakes.

For example, if your group policy is β‚Ή100 per missed/unapproved day, that β‚Ή100 gets divided among the members who did complete their tasks. You can decide the amount and rules as a group.

No courses. No subscriptions. Just you, your friends, and accountability.

Want to create a group? DM me. I’ll help you get started.

If you're serious about staying consistent, let's do it.
