GATE 2022 Environmental Science Questions
GATE 2022 ES paper being introduced for the second time, the only source of information we had to access beforehand were the ES syllabus and sample paper and previous year analysis.
The paper had more theoretical questions. A clear understanding of topics was required to attempt the questions. There were a few tricky questions as well.
There were more MSQs this time as well, which made the paper tougher. But still, we stressed more on MSQs in our ES tests with about 8 questions in our full-length tests. It turned out to be useful, as the GATE paper had about 13-15 MSQs
Aptitude and Mathematics turned out to be easy and direct questions were asked from these subjects.
As expected, there were about NATs with 17-19 questions asked, which is in line with the previous year GATE paper and APSEd full-length tests.
