Session-5, EC, 10th Feb, 2017, forenoon slot, 9:00 am - 12 pm:

Compared to the previous year question paper, this year GATE exam sees a difference as more weightage was given to digital logic in comparison to the analog and communication, which are considered as the core subjects. For other subjects, the weightage was more or less the same. Candidates found no NAT (Numerical Answer Type) questions as maximum number of questions were conceptual based. Those who had a very clear concept would surely bag good score. However, the overall paper was pretty much reasonable.
