Total Marks: 100
Difficulty: Medium

INSTRUCTIONS
The Questions in this model paper is prepared by our team of experts according
to the weightage given in the previous gate papers. In some of the questions
the engineer is supposed to memorize certain formulae and expressions, in
others he/she is supposed to know the concepts, basic assumptions and
theories, fundamental methods etc.in some of the questions several answers
may appear to be correct but the student has to select the most appropriate
answer.in some of the questions, the depth of the working knowledge of the
student is tested. Although every care has been taken to ensure accuracy, yet
some errors might have crept in and the authors will be grateful if the same
could be brought to their notice.
Note: - This is the same free online mock test that is provided to u as free in petrodice free test
series.
