GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) 2016 Mechanical Engineering Exam Set 1,2 & 3 Paper was conducted on 30& 31th Jan, 2016. Through this post we will be covering the overall analysis of GATE 2016 Electronics & Communication paper.
GATE 2016 Mechanical Engineering Paper Analysis & Expected Cutoff
Overall Analysis of GATE ME Papers
- Technical Subjects: Easy, Moderate
- Multiple Choice Questions: Easy
- Numerical Type Questions: Formula based and tricky
- Paper 1 and Paper 3 were easier, Paper 2 was lengthy.
- Many numerical type questions came in all the three sets.
- Expected marks for topper after normalization is 70 Marks
- General aptitude section is easy and moderate in all papers
- Mathematics is having easy, moderate and difficult questions in all papers
Overall expected weightage of marks in all three papers
GATE ME 2016: Jan-30 (Forenoon) Paper Analysis
– Paper was moderate and tricky
– Many Numerical Answer Type questions were asked
– General Aptitude portion wasd easy
– Mathematics questions are moderate (Questions asked from gauss seidal , Newton Raphson )
– Theory of Machines & Vibrations: velocity analysis
– Many questions were asked from Fluid Mechanics, Engineering Mechanics and Heat transfer.
– Strength of materials and Theory of machines are having easy and moderate questions
– No questions are asked from RAC and IC engine, Material science.
– TOM questions are based on slider crank and vibration and damping
– Many questions are asked from thermal sciences.
GATE ME 2016: Jan-30 (Afternoon) Paper Analysis
– This paper is Tough paper among three sets
– General aptitude questions are moderate and difficult
– Many numerical type questions were asked (More than 25 questions)
– Theory of machine questions are asked less in this paper.
– Mathematics questions are lengthy and time consuming
– Heat transfer questions were easy
– Maths section was quite hard. More Questions from thermodynamic compared to others
– Machine design questions are very less
– Many of 2 Mark questions are asked difficult
– Many were Formula based questions
– Fluid mechanics, manufacturing science and thermal science questions were less compared to other papers.
GATE ME 2016: Jan-31 (Forenoon) Paper Analysis
– Paper was easier than other two papers
– Similar to other paper many Numerical type questions were asked in the paper
– More number of questions was asked from thermodynamics and Heat transfer
– General Aptitude portion was very easy.
– Mathematics questions was also easy to moderate (questions were asked from limits, Eigen vector, Laplace)
– Theory of Machines & Vibrations: Questions were asked from mechanism, balancing, gear & rest)
– All technical questions were easy and moderate.
– Easy questions were asked from theory of machines and manufacturing.
Overall the paper was of moderate difficulty level and the cutoff is expected to be around28-29 marks.
All the Best!!
