GATE English VOCAB Material
Friends,
Can anyone suggest me some good material for preparing English for GATE? There are few questions, these days based on paragraphs and English Vocabulary.
I know Barrons is for GRE but I am not sure if it can be used for GATE.
please help me.
P.S: I am a mechanical student.

Ankita KatdareYou may use a book called 'Word Power Made Easy' to increase your vocabulary overall.
Vocabulary lists such as the one is barron's are available everywhere across the net. [even on CE]
Does GATE have questions related to Reading Comprehension (RC)? If yes, there are lot of books by Kaplan and Princeton about it.
A rich vocabulary helps in solving the RC questions quickly. It does not need separate practice as such. -
cooltwinsi recommend "Word Power Made Easy" too... it is an awesome tool to improve your vocabulary... do give it a try...

ISHAN TOPREThe course of English for GATE is not very big as such, it is definitely very less than GRE. However those marks are easy and I want to encash on them unlike University.
yes, GATE does have RC. However they are typically small paragraphs, however if we read them then the option for them look similar. I only want some practice material for it. Thanks for your help. -
