Comments on GATE 2017 Computer Science Engineering session 2 by GateForum
- CSE paper I has more MCQ questions and theoretical type.
- Compared to last year, in Discrete Mathematics weightage has come down while it is increased in Engineering Mathematics.
- In remaining topics IIT Roorkee has followed almost the same weightage compared to last year.
- In general the overall difficulty level of the paper is Easy than last year.
