GATE 2023 AE Paper Analysis Summary

GATE 2023 AE Exam Highlights

GATE AE Paper Analysis – Previous Year

GATE AE exam paper has total weightage of 100 marks. Out of these 85 marks are allotted to technical questions and 15 marks to non- technical questions.

• Topics for AE paper technical questions are as follows: Engg. Mathematics, Flight Mechanics, Space Dynamics, Aero Dynamics, Structure and Propulsion.
• Non- technical questions are asked from the following: English, Logical Reasoning, Data Interpretation and Basic Mathematics.
• 30 questions will be asked from the core subjects, 25 questions from mathematics and 10 questions from general aptitude.
• Out of the 30 core questions, 90% of them are from the core topics and 10% from special topics mentioned in GATE syllabus.
• Distribution of questions among the 1 mark and 2 marks questions is as follow:

Types of Questions:

There are only two types of questions asked in GATE AE exam, the MCQ and NAT question.

1. MCQ: These questions carry 1 or 2 marks each; there are 4 answers of which only 1 is correct.
2. NAT (Numeric Aptitude type): The answer is a number which has to be entered with the help of a virtual keypad that is provided on the screen.

Design of questions:

The questions asked in the paper will fall in the following 4 categories only:

• Recall: The questions are based on the facts, principles, formulae or laws. It is expected that candidate would be able to solve these questions only on the basis of the memory or just by 1 line computation.
• Comprehension: The questions are designed to test the candidate understanding of the basic or the core knowledge of the field. A candidate has to draw only simple conclusions from the fundamental ideas.
• Application: A problem solving has to be done with the help of the acquired knowledge of the subject through computation or logical reasoning.
• Analysis and synthesis: These types of questions can only be solved in a sequential manner. The answer derived from question 1, will be used as a data for questions 2, and thus the series continues. So the successor-predecessor approach is used or hierarchal approach for solving the problems.
• The other approach involves common data which can be used by both the problems given, so they can be solved independently.
