Faculty Feedback:
 The question paper was bit tough and was little offbit than conventional GATE papers.
 Plenty of Numerical Answer Type (NAT) questions asked.
 Online Calculator was difficult to handle without Prectice .
 Numerical & Verbal ability was relatively easy.
 Practice previous Year Questions & Online Test Series will be beneficial .
