Questions
Is it only for the last week before the exam?
No. It is a cheatsheet of the important points, formulas and facts. Keep it on your phone and use it all through your preparation: before a mock, when a topic slips, and for one full read in the final days.
How do I get it after paying?
It's yours the moment the payment clears, and you come straight back to this page with Download and Read buttons. It stays in your ProSyllabus account.
Will the kit be updated after I buy it?
Yes. We regularly correct and improve our kits as syllabi, notifications and exam patterns change. Each time you download from this page you get the latest version, at no extra cost — so check back here from time to time, and download it again before your exam.
Can I pay with UPI?
Yes — UPI, cards or netbanking on a secure payment page. If you already have ProSyllabus credits, they are used instead and nothing is charged.
Can I see it before I buy?
Yes. Page 1 is shown here in full, free. It is the actual first page of the eight-page PDF.
Does one purchase work for every GATE branch?

What is it built from?
From the official GATE papers of 2017-2026: 710 General Aptitude questions across 71 distinct sessions, each classified by topic. The rules and examples follow what those papers actually asked, and each is tagged with the year and paper.
Does it cover the full GATE subject paper?
It covers the common General Aptitude section: verbal, quantitative, analytical and spatial aptitude (15 marks). It does not cover the other 85 marks.
I bought the earlier edition. Do I get this one?
Yes. The download always serves the current edition, so earlier buyers get the eight-page version at no extra cost.
