Highlights of GATE CE Set-1 Paper:
- Most of the questions were concept based.
- Fliud Mechanics, Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering had high weightage.
- Overall the paper contain 50 percent of questions are easy, 30 percent of questions are medium, and 20 percent of questions are tricky/tough.
All the above review based on the feedback and discussion of Gradeup users.
Thanks,
Team Gradeup!!
