CS EXAM

gate-181

Many students presume that MCQ subjects is all about focusing  on whole syllabus  and not on important topics. But there is a slight difference if you have analyzed the papers properly ,there are lot of MCQ’s FROM IMPORTANT TOPICS which are easier and can be prepared with 100% accuracy in short span of time. Rather than devoting timing on preparing on WHOLE SYLLABUS (and getting it wrong in exam hall) students can easily cover these important topics in a considerable span of time (and score 50-60 marks with full accuracy). If you prepare for MCQ subjects as guided by us, then you can easily score more than 80 marks and if not you wont be able to pass individually in that subject.

Theory:-

 

While starting, you can go to practical topic in Costing and Taxation, But never ignore or try to underweight theory part, these cover 30-40 percentage of exam paper . For ILGL you should thoroughly know sections and relevant case laws.

Theory portion plays a vital role in MCQ Subjects. If nothing will work, then surely theory will work in these papers. Weightage of theory portion usually remains 35-40 marks, in COST AND TAX. So, make your plan accordingly.

We recommend you to read theory portion at least one hours on daily basis then only you can able to memories and able to recall in exam hall.

Effective Method Of Studying-

 

Please understand the concept. The institute will not ask any irrelevant questions. All the questions are based on the concept. This correction you need to be made during the time of study. The clarity in the concept will help you for dealing such type of questions.
