PreparationTechniques for EKT:
- · Firstly I want to say that you are engineeringstudents like me, you have the capabilities of reading the whole book in night.God has gifted you capabilities of doing miracles. Any finally most of youfeels that you are weak at technical side.
- · No need to worry for that just relax pick a bookthat can give you over view of your branch and if you have done engineeringwith efforts then no one can stop you to qualify EKT exam. Pick your subject booksand have a overview. There is no particular syllabus decided officially so youcan study basics things first. I have tried to put a syllabus for EKT and thatyou can find above.
- · For those who are weaker at technical side justpick any of books available in market, like Arihant publication is providing a separatebook for practice, and also if you are having any GATE Preparation material orbook then it is also sufficient.
- · One of my friend told me that, he had a book ofGATE preparation-GK publication you may have heard about that. If you have it,it is best.
- · And for those engineers who have less knowledgeand their luck is high, I will say go in your way no one can stop you again.
