GATE 2012 ECE Test Series

I am taking classes for 12th grade students and helping them to prepare for engineering UG entrance, hence I know the importance of practise and most importantly I know the value of checking it (practice) out. I always try to keep them busy with tests almost 1 - 2 everyday. And fire them when they perform poor.And so far so good, they are responding it well and almost covering everything which I couldn't even cover myself if I was in 12th now.
Thus, I decided to take a lesson from my special batch and design something which do same thing for me and my GATE preparation. Firstly, all I wanted is tests which I had from last 2 years with me and couldn't get ample time to solve, so why not use these papers now.
I had 2 sets of subject-wise tests and 15 full length papers. And I think thats enough (but remember these papers are not designed by me and due to copyright thing, I will not mention from where I took them. I am not selling this paper to make my personal profit and I myself paid for the papers 2 years back, so I think I am not doing anything wrong morally)
Now it was time to plan the schedule, I had test materials and need to look out the problems while preparing for GATE (ECE) and also had to keep in mind about the practice. My favorite blogger from Inspire & Ignite recently posted a series of video of interview with Nikhil who secured AIR 4 from ECE branch and now pursuing his dreams in IISc, Banglore. (Click here for video interview). So back to topic, in that video Nikhil has mentioned some sort of Study Group in his college which was active and he was constant touch with the GATE syllabus and practice. So taking lesson from him, I decided to design test series which had papers/test on regular interval (giving same amount of time for all subject whether subject is easy or hard) and I used to sleep in noon and GATE paper is in noon time for ECE offline it is from 2pm to 5pm. Hence, I targeted this time as the best time to solve the papers.
From last few months, whenever I had time and desperately wanted it to waste, I used to surf on google with keywords GATE, ECE, 2012, etc etc. And came across my forums, articles, communities in orkut and also came across my favorite blog Inspire & Ignite. :) Ok, so I observed onething common in most of them. Those who qualified GATE previous or recently always said to look the previous years GATE paper. I always used to wander why previous years paper hold so much importance because every year IIT who conduct and prepare GATE paper changed. I still wander about the same but as many or its better to say most of the qualifiers mentioned it, I have to practice them, afterall its about my future and my dreams. So I tried to cover as much paper as possible in the schedule and during extra time, I can always look at the papers. I kept this previous year papers in morning time, because these papers were designed by IITs and hold the exact structure of question which we may face on 12th Feb, 2012 in our GATE paper. We need our mind in alert state to remember the question even after the paper so that during revision we can be able to enhance the part for ourselves. So I suggest to follow the TEST Series along with the time as everything in the time table has single or many reasons to be there at that particular position.

Here is the schedule for the test :-
