Whenever such a question appears in GATE, they'll mention all the assumptions. So you need not worry about that.

In GATE question it will clearly mention if context switch at the beginning and end will be calculated or not. (as done in questions asked in previous year)

Operating System | Round Robin | Preemption & Context Switch
Suppose only a process P1 is executing, using Round Robin scheduling. After the time slice expires, the same process comes back into execution. This could be considered as: (Time Slice of RR is smaller than burst of P1) Only preemption Only context switch Both preemption and context switch None
