GATE Civil Engineering Mock Tests
Subject-wise practice for GATE Civil Engineering. GATE rewards depth on a narrower, more numerical syllabus than ESE — so practice runs one subject at a time, with full worked solutions rather than answer keys.

Mock Tests
GATE Civil practice, organised by subject. Coverage is deeper in some subjects than others — the subject tabs show exactly how many tests each one carries today, rather than implying the whole syllabus is served.
Study Material
GATE CE — paper structure
| Section | Content | Share of marks |
|---|---|---|
| General Aptitude | Verbal and numerical aptitude | 15 marks |
| Engineering Mathematics | Linear algebra, calculus, differential equations, probability | ~13 marks |
| Civil Engineering subjects | Structures, geotechnical, water resources, transportation, environmental, surveying | ~72 marks |

About GATE Civil Engineering Mock Tests
How much of the GATE CE syllabus is covered today?
Not all of it. The subject tabs above show the live test count for each subject, so you can see the coverage before you commit time to it rather than discovering gaps halfway through.
Should I practise from the ESE bank for GATE?
For concept and codal questions, yes — the subjects overlap heavily and the ESE hub is broader. For numerical-answer practice, GATE's own format differs: no negative marking on NAT questions, and deeper multi-step numericals.
Are solutions worked, or just answer keys?
Worked. Each explanation gives the reasoning, the governing formula or IS code clause, and the steps — an answer key alone teaches nothing about why you missed it.
Do I need an account to attempt a test?
Browsing is open. Attempting a timed test and keeping score history needs an account — a free tier is available.
