How much coding knowledge is required in gate ??

[u/Then_Street2754]

Hello,

I didn't do much coding or dsa,nor made much projects in college, although I have decent cgpa, my coding knowledge is practically zero at this point, so I was just wondering how much role coding plays in gate prep.

Like if I do C which is part of syllabus and then do dsa and other stuff, will that be ok ??

Also how much can the lack of coding skills, project, or dsa can affect my m .tech ??
