Is it good to prepare previous years’ question papers for the IGNOU exams?

YM
Yajnaseni Mukherjee Posted On : October 21st, 2022
MA in English Literature & English Literature, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

It would be insufficient to prepare last year's questions in order to write your answer this year.

To perform well on the exam, you must practice with at least 5 years of questions. Because there are a lot of questions in the exam. So, in order to improve your performance, try to attend to more and more questions.

One thing you should keep in mind is your writing ability. To get good grades in exams, you must have good writing skills that are clear and concise. This is an important factor in any exam, so you must work on it.

How is the GATE paper pattern by IISc Bangalore different from the IITs for the computer science branch?

AB
Aditi Bhardwaj Posted On : March 6th, 2023
Senior lead at Qualcomm

In the GATE exam, you can expect more math-related questions, as well as questions on subjects like the theory of computation and algorithms. However, the question paper is not necessarily set entirely by the organizing institute. Different institutes submit sets of questions, and the final paper is decided by IISC.

Some subjects are especially important for chemical engineers, and this is often reflected in the GATE paper. For example, topics like CRE and ProCon may be emphasized.

The pattern of the paper is mostly determined by the professors who are setting the questions, rather than the institute itself. However, every place has a research culture, and the exam is designed to test whether students are suitable for that particular environment. At IISC, the culture is focused on core scientific research, rather than application-based research. Therefore, you can expect questions that test your basics, logic, and conceptual understanding.

The video below explains the differences between GATE paper set by IITs and IISc

It's important to note that, no matter which institute is setting the paper, all subjects are generally covered more or less equally. So, if you plan your studies accordingly, you'll be well-prepared for any type of question that may come up. For example, in one institute, a question may ask for a straightforward answer, while in another, the question may require you to apply your knowledge and choose the best option based on given properties. By focusing on understanding the concepts, you can be prepared for any type of question that may appear on the exam.

SN
Shubham Naik Posted On : March 15th, 2023
B.E in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya, Bhopal (Graduated 2018)

When it comes to B.E program, there are typically two papers that you will have to deal with at RGPV University: theory and practical. The theory paper usually accounts for 70 marks, and in order to pass it, you will need to score at least 22 marks. The other paper is practical, and in this examination, the marks you receive will be based on how well you answer the questions asked by the external examiner, as well as your attendance record. Your head of department (HOD) will then assign a score to your practical based on these factors.

To summarize, in order to pass your theory paper, you need to aim for a minimum score of 22 out of 70. Meanwhile, your practical score will depend on your performance during the examination, as well as your attendance record. Keep in mind that it is important to focus on both aspects of the examination in order to succeed in your B.E studies.

Can I prepare in 1 month for a B.Ed entrance exam at DU?

I
Inayat Posted On : October 10th, 2022
BA English literature from University of Delhi

The requirements for B.Ed admission to DU are as follows:

Written Exam:

If you work smartly and analyze the pattern of questions asked in previous examinations, devote a focused time period to preparation, followed by sufficient practice tests, you can certainly clear in one month. 

If you are well-versed in your subject matter, there is very little required for you to do. Hard work comes after good fortune. So, first and foremost, your planning should be smart, and then, you must work and prepare well beyond the planned strategy. Each of us has our own set of self-beliefs and abilities. Thus, you do not have to compare yourself with any other person. Just believe in yourself and go ahead. 

Interview: 

During the interview, a panel of teachers/interviewers/professors will fire off all sorts of questions at you, including subject questions, psychology questions, general knowledge questions, confidence check questions, and, most importantly, your honesty, which is one of the most important aspects of being a good teacher. A good strategy, a lot of planning, focused work, confidence as well as a strong belief in yourself, are required.
