This set provides a Simulated Full-length Test for GATE. The purpose of this test is to provide you with a fairly accurate evaluation of what your scores would be barring any special preparation. Find a quiet place to work, in order to simulate examination conditions. Keep an accurate record of your time. Don’t be worried, if you are not able to answer all questions in the allotted time. This may also occur on the actual test. The paper is generally so broad based that it is difficult to expect that the examinee will know answers to all questions. No penalty is imposed for guessing. The score is determined by the number of correct answers. Therefore, it is to your advantage to answer every question. Economy of time is of utmost concern. It is best to work rapidly and carefully and not to waste time on questions that contain difficult or unfamiliar material. Detailed explanatory answers are provided. After the rest is over, you may have self-evaluation of your paper. Irrespective of whether you answer to a particular question is correct or wrong, you should go through the explanatory answers provided. Based on your performance in this test, now you can identify strong and weak areas. Now you should be in a position to approach your review program realistically and plan your time for study.
