Note 1: On NCERT Mathematics books of Class 11 and 12, I would recommend if you can solve them end-to-end during your preparation (specially the miscellaneous problem at end of each chapter)

Note 2: Below are two non-technical videos. But might help you get started

@Harshit07979 there is a priority when you are learning things. Understanding concepts and reasoning should be first, solving GATE style questions should be second. Post that you can within 1-2 days create brief notes, by solving questions you will also realise what you should put more in notes, and what you can skip. I highly recommend hands-on in Python for both DSA and ML, but considering the limited time for upcoming GATE 2025, that can be avoided. But if you are in 3rd year or early, doing the same for any concept will push it into your memory 10x stronger if you code it down for yoursel

Hi @rrdhanush, I'd recommend if you can read the concepts and solve the miscellaneous exercises that should suffice. But if you struggle with this, anything advanced would not make much sense
