GATE 2023: Ultimate Guide to Prepare for General Aptitude

The GATE Aptitude paper can make or break your exam. Aptitude cannot be learned in a matter of days or a month so it must be made a daily habit.

Dedicate one hour each day to practice aptitude. Even if you do 10 questions daily, it will be enough. You can take the time to study this subject.

Do not focus too much on the learning methods involved in aptitude problems as each problem can be approached in a different way. You just need to focus.

Try to visualize each and every problem of General Aptitude because if you can do that then the problems can sometimes become clear. So don't worry.

Your calculations should be quick at the time of General Aptitude test as many times aptitude problems do not require a calculator. So definitely prepare for it.

While giving the paper many times we leave the question when we don't understand it, before giving up and looking for the solution try to solve a problem multiple times and try to try it from a different approach each time.
