The overall impression which one gets from analyzing GATE-2012 CSE Paper is that in terms of the level of
difficulty, it is same as that of the previous two years. The weight age
given to subjects were more or less evenly distributed with a notable
exception in case of Software engineering and Web Technologies where
there were no questions. While there was no element of surprise in the
difficulty level of the paper,the questions asked were tricky and
misleading. The questions on Computer Networks in particular would lure
the student into a trap of attempting them and spending a lot of time.
In last few GATE papers, GA was given for 15 marks;
Engineering Mathematics was given for 10 marks. But this time as
specified in the GATE 2012 Information Brochure, GA and E.M both were
given for 15 + 15 = 30 marks.
The General Aptitude section of GATE 2012 provided much
need avenues to increase overall GATE Score of the candidate. Most of
the questions were easy or of Moderate Level of difficulty .A candidate
who has put in the required effort in practicing General Aptitude can
score upto (10-12) marks in this section and
this can go a long way in helping him meet the basic qualifying criteria. The candidates who found the level of difficulty of Engineering stream and Engineering Maths questions high would have gotthe much needed relief they were looking for in their quest to increase the GATE Score. A candidate scoring (50-55) can expect a rank of 1000 and below.
