Hello, Yes, it will be helpful for you. It will clear all your concepts and you do not have to dedicate lot of time for preparation. But, don't let GATE preparation affect your B.Tech preparation. Best of luck.

Yes, it is beneficial because GATE exams consists of questions from 2nd year and 3rd year. So, if you prepare from 2nd year itself, then you can get good score and this can help in getting a good government job or decent colleges for M.Tech.
