Questions about GATE PYQs

Which GATE papers are available on Lemyte?

71 official papers: Computer Science & Information Technology (23), Civil Engineering (14), Mechanical Engineering (10), Aerospace Engineering (7), Electronics & Communication Engineering (7), Electrical Engineering (7), Data Science & Artificial Intelligence (3). Each one has its own page with the official answer key.

Are these the real GATE questions?

Yes. Question text and figures are taken from the official papers, and answers come from the official answer keys published by the organising institutes, including marks-to-all decisions and range answers for numerical questions.

How is a GATE paper marked?

Each paper has 65 questions for 100 marks, taken in 3 hours. A wrong MCQ answer costs one-third of its marks (−⅓ for a 1-mark question, −⅔ for a 2-mark question). MSQ and numerical (NAT) questions have no negative marking, and an MSQ earns marks only when every correct option is chosen.

Can I take a past paper as a timed test?

Yes. Every paper runs as a full 3-hour test on a screen laid out like the real exam, with the virtual calculator, and is marked with the official key. A short General Aptitude demo is free.
