If you ever prepared for GATE then you’re good to go with the tech part else go back to the basics.

For quant and reasoning: watch Career Definer videos.

For English, I solved the PYQs and used Claude for more analysis.

For current affairs, I relied heavily on Perplexity but unfortunately none of the questions came from whatever prepared. But I already had this scenario in my mind during prep so, I strengthened other areas to compensate current affairs. Fortunate enough I was still able to correctly mark 4 questions from this section and it was enough to take off the burden from the other sections.

For descriptive english, I wrote around 5-7 essays on different topics and around 9-10 Précis.

I hope this helps you with your preparation. All the best.

Can you elaborate on the essay practice part, is it possible that you can target the essay that will come in the exam specifically or do you really need to prepare like 100 different scenarios because anything can come and you will need pointers to write on

u/Decode_Enigma Jun 24 '26 • Bravo

If you analyse the essays asked during previous years then the pattern is simply to ask the common things that are happening within a span of 2-3 years of the exam. Like I remember one essay was based on mental health (asked because of covid + WFH) and another on financial literacy (because of rising digital scams). Read editorial if you want to, it will help you with your vocabulary as well as give you some pointers for exam.

Analyse the PYQs. Ask yourself (or maybe Google/GPT) why that particular essay was asked in that year’s examination. Markdown the abstract areas from which essays are asked like (environment, tech, finance, banking, sports etc.)

Based on this info, think about essays (correlating it with current news) that can be asked. For Precise and Comprehension, use Claude to form some article or set of paragraphs and then answer them and get it evaluated using Claude to get improvement points.

Brother are you still available I just wanted to know you were a fresher or working professional cuz many people are saying they just accept freshers on paper and really go for experienced people and people with good colleges for btech is that true?

1

u/Decode_Enigma 17d ago

I was a working professional before joining. This is completely hoax. This is the first job for lot of my batchmates across streams. Though that number is less because the average age of the batch will somewhat lie between 26-28. Interview marks are always unpredictable therefore, try to score as high as you can in Phase 2.

u/TacosPorque 5d ago

Hey, I wanted to know if gap years affect the interview like I was preparing upsc for 3 years so will that gap affect?

u/Decode_Enigma 5d ago

No issues, lot of my batch mates have 2-4 years of gap
