Yes you are eligible to appear in gate in 3rd year.
In current eligiblity criteria.
It changes only once in year 2009 when only pre final year were not eligible.
But dont worry currently you are in first year so continue your engineering study with enthusiam.

Dear friend according to GATE elligibility criteria , you should have either passed your b.tech or are in last year. you are not allowed to appear in GATE in your 3rd year legally . but for experiance purpose,you can appear in it but remember you will not be allowed to take admission in M.Tech even after cracking GATE.

Hi Sagarsingla..
As you are doing B.Tech and now you are in 1st year, you will able to appear for GATE Examination in your final or pre-final year.i.e., you can appear for GATE Examination in third year of your graduation. So, you have enough time to prepare for it. As you are in 1st year only you make your basic concepts regarding your discipline very strong from very begining. Its my advice for you to study well from right now so that you can crack GATE in the very 1st attempt, i.e., in third year itself. If you maintain your study, work hard you will definitely make it out.
Good luck..

hello dear,
You are absolutely eligible for GATE examination in third year or your graduation.
During your third year 2nd sem you can write the exam.....I suggest you to take coaching before you write the exam as you know that it is very difficult to score marks in it

Yes sure you are eligible. But you need to have a deep understanding of your core subjects to crack the GATE. But doing after B.tech would be advisable.

Hello,

Yes you are eligible to give the GATE exam in the 3rd year of your graduation.
GATE is Graduate Aptitude TEst in Engineering and is conducted by the various IITs for admission to the post graduation program of IITS and IISC.

The minimum educational qualification is that you must have a bachelor's degree or an equivalent from a recognized institution.
Students in the final and pre-final year may also apply.

For details eligibility criteria, please visit:

Also, feel free to ask for any other assistance.

Good Luck!

Hi...yes you are eligible to appear for the exam while you are in 3rd year.You can sit for the exam when you reach 3rd year but the certificate of GATE is valid for only two years...You can start preparation from now onwards as its one of the toughest paper for graduates and also be attentive in class also as the question patterns will be similar to what you have studied in your B.E.If you concentrate well in your B.E then it will be easy for you to appear for this exam.You can refer to G.K.publication books also as it is having solved question paper.

Dear sagar,
now you are in your b.tech first year , so you are not eligible to write the GATE examination in your third year because , the GATE score is valid for two years only... so, if you write your GATE examination in final year it is better and it is valid after your completion of your b.tech....
all the best

Since you are still doing btech(1st year) continue doing it.
Write the exam after completing your btech.

Presently you are not eligible to give GATE exam in third year of the graduation.
Previously there is chance for writing the exam but now you don't have the chance for writing now the rules have changed 3rd year candidates are not allowed for the exam.

Hello friend,
You are not eligible for GATE in you 3rd year of engineering.Eligibility of GATE is bachelor degree in engineering,Students who are in the final year of their BTech also eligible for gate.But the student who are in 3rd year of their BTech are not eligible for GATE.Once before 2009 the student who are in the 3rd year of their BTech is also eligible for GATE ,but that rule is modified.So this modification makes not eligible the students who are in the 3rd year of their BTech.
But once you write the GATE ,this gate score is valid for 2 years.Within that span you can use this score for your higher graduation or any other purpose.
