For GATE aspirants

A GATE plan that respects how much you have to cover.

Lighthouse Prep structures your branch's full GATE syllabus into a daily plan — weightage-aware, revision-aware, built for engineers.

The GATE syllabus is dense — 10–13 subjects depending on your branch, plus Engineering Mathematics and General Aptitude. The candidates who score well don't study harder; they distribute their time according to weightage and revise relentlessly.

Lighthouse Prep is built for that approach.

Set up your branch

You pick:

  • Your GATE branch (CS / ECE / EE / ME / CE / others)
  • Subjects you want to prioritise
  • Target exam date
  • Daily hours

The AI plan structures the syllabus into a daily schedule, weighted toward high-marks subjects based on recent papers.

A typical GATE study day

  • One deep subject session (60–120 min) — a core branch subject in depth.
  • One Engineering Mathematics session — calculus, linear algebra, probability rotated.
  • One General Aptitude session — verbal and numerical aptitude practice.
  • Revision blocks — topics from earlier this week and last month.
  • Optional PYQ slot — solve previous year questions for the subject just studied.

Why revision is the GATE differentiator

GATE has 10+ subjects per branch. By the time you finish subject 8, subject 1 is fading. Most candidates don't revise because they don't track it.

Lighthouse Prep handles this automatically. Every topic re-enters your schedule at 1 day, 3 days, 7 days and 21 days. The full syllabus stays warm in your head right up to exam day.

Features for GATE prep

  • Weightage-aware sessions — heavy subjects get more time.
  • Engineering Maths integration — runs alongside branch subjects daily.
  • Focus timer — measures real study, not desk time.
  • Wastage analytics — see where your day breaks.
  • Spaced revision — automatic, no manual scheduling.
  • Study groups — collaborate with other GATE aspirants.
  • Lumi AI mentor — clarify branch-specific concepts in plain language.

Who this is for

  • Final-year engineering students preparing for GATE alongside coursework
  • Working engineers preparing in 2–4 hours daily
  • Repeat attempters who underperformed last cycle and want stronger revision

Frequently asked questions

Does it cover all GATE branches?
Yes — CS, ECE, EE, ME, CE, Chemical, Instrumentation, Biotech and others. You add subjects for your branch and the planner balances them around General Aptitude and Engineering Mathematics.
How does it use PYQ weightage?
When you set up your branch, the planner uses recent-paper weightage to allocate more time to high-yield subjects. Low-weightage subjects still get coverage, but not at the expense of high-yield ones.
Can I do GATE alongside a full-time job?
Yes. You set your daily hours — 2, 3, 4 — and the plan generates a realistic schedule for that constraint. The wastage report shows which days you're actually hitting your target.
How does revision work for GATE?
Spaced revision is automatic. Every topic you cover gets scheduled back at 1, 3, 7 and 21 days. This is what most self-study GATE plans miss.
Is it free?
Yes — core features are free.
