WBUT PGET 2026 PREPARATION TIPS

WBUT PGET 2026 PREPARATION TIPS

WBUT PGET 2026 (MAKAUT PGET) preparation should be built around the official syllabus, a strict but realistic study plan, and intensive practice of branch-specific technical questions along with general aptitude. The exam level is moderate and typically easier than GATE, so smart coverage plus revision and mocks is more important than very advanced theory.

Understand Pattern, Syllabus, Weightage

  • Check the latest pattern: computer-based test, about 60–100 MCQs, 60–90 minutes, 1 mark per question, usually no negative marking (verify from the current brochure).
  • Syllabus has three broad parts: General/Reasoning, Mathematics & Basic Sciences, and Relevant Engineering (branch-specific), with the maximum weight usually on the engineering section.
  • Download the official syllabus (MAKAUT PGET/WB PGET) and map each topic to specific textbooks or notes before starting.

8–12 Week Study Plan

  • First 4–6 weeks:
    • Revise core undergraduate subjects relevant to your branch (e.g., Networks, Machines, Control, DBMS, Data Structures, Thermodynamics, etc.) focusing on formulas, definitions, and standard numericals.
    • Parallelly practice 20–30 questions daily from reasoning/aptitude topics like coding–decoding, series, seating arrangement, syllogism, inequalities, and data interpretation.
  • Next 3–4 weeks:
    • Start mixed-topic practice sets that combine General + Maths/Science + Engineering in one sitting, simulating the actual paper.
    • Use chapter-wise and full-length mocks to identify weak topics; revisit only those chapters instead of rereading everything.

Topic-Wise Strategy

  • General/Reasoning/English:
    • Practice questions on logical reasoning (puzzles, arrangements, syllogism, statements & assumptions, cause–effect) and basic verbal ability.
    • Time yourself; aim to reduce average time per question so you can devote more time to engineering questions in the exam.
  • Maths & Basic Sciences:
    • Focus on frequently used engineering math (calculus, linear algebra, probability, complex numbers) and basic physics concepts, depending on your branch.
    • Maintain a formula notebook and revise it every 2–3 days.
  • Relevant Engineering (Branch Section):
    • Prioritize topics that overlap with GATE/your university syllabus and are frequently asked in past PGET papers.
    • For each major subject, solve previous years’ questions and topic-wise question banks.

Use Previous Papers and Mocks

  • Download and solve past MAKAUT/WB PGET papers and available answer keys; treat them as full mock tests with strict timing.
  • After each mock:
    • Classify mistakes into “conceptual”, “formula/recall”, and “silly mistakes” and fix them separately.
    • Track your section-wise scores and gradually shift practice towards low-scoring sections.

Last 10–15 Days Strategy

  • Stop learning new topics; focus on revision of formulas, short notes, and repeatedly asked question types in your branch.
  • Give 4–6 full-length mocks in the actual exam slot to tune your body clock and practice speed/accuracy balance.
  • Ensure adequate sleep and short breaks; light revision of your formula sheet and a few solved examples on the day before the exam is better than long, stressful study sessions.
