Scori Topics Remarks GATE 2019


ng
TOC & CD 10-12 90% All Tricky: Decidability and undecidability 14
7 marks in total and no question from
counters. Most probable topics are : Logic
gates, complement system, Boolean
DLD 6-8 90% All Counters (synchronous and asynchronous) algebra(K - Map)
Graph theory 3-4 90% All
Group theory + Algebraic
structures 0-2 100% All
Recurrence relations and
genrating functions 1-3 80% All
This is easy part of Engineering Maths, least
linear algebra 2-3 100% All effort and no tricky question. 3
if you wish to be in top 100 this is a must,
Aptitude 6-9 90% All please dont neglect this. you need preparation. 6
P & C, Probability 2-4 70% All 2
Calculus 1-3 70% All 1
[Link] 1-3 55% All Easy to score but can be tricky.

Easy topics: asymptotic notations,
master theorem, sorting& searching,
greedy( Huffman encoding, optimal
Algorithms 8-11 65% merge pattern, graphy traversals), Tricky: Rest of the topics
Tricky: SQL,RA, TRC, DRC, ER-diagram to 8 marks in total. Two 2 marks questions from
Easy: Transactions & Concurrency Relation. There is chance you can score more querying(RA, SQL). Rest of the questions are
control protocols, FD's, than the given percentage as questions asked from FD, Concurrency and B,B+ trees.
Database 6-9 65% Normalizations, File systems in GATE are of medium level. NOTE: Queries asked are bit easy to answer.
8 marks in total and one question from
demand paging, 2 from deadlock, 1 from
EASY: memory management, Tricky: Inter‐process communication, process synchronization and 1 from disk
process scheduling, file concurrency and synchronization, deadlocks scheduling. Out of them one difficult question
Operating System 8-9 65% management can be tricky sometimes from deadlock and one from synchronization.
Questions on pointers and arrays are
confusing and there is chance of making silly
mistakes. Recursion programmimg questions 11 marks in total, and 4 marks on pointers ,
C Programming 3-7 60% can be lengthy. function calling ,array are difficult questions
7 marks are covered from the mentioned
Computer Networks 7-9 60% Easy: Subnetting Tricky: Transport layer is tricky easy topics
