what is the better choice going for GATE OR CAT to crack ,please reply iam confused.

There's nothing to be confused about.You first need to decide what do you want to become exactly.If you can decide what you want to become exactly in your career then you can definitely make up a decision according to me.If you want to go through your M.tech course and want to settle down either in your core industry or in teaching side then going through GATE will be the best option.GATE exam consists of your core subjects along with Mathematics.If you feel that it's easy then you can definitely go through the exam.

If you want to go through the Management course from top Institutes in India then going through MBA will be the best option.You must have heard that CAT is the toughest exam being conducted in India hence you need to prepare well if you want to secure a good percentile and get selected in IIM's. CAT exam is related to Verbal Analysis, Data Interpretation, Quantitative Aptitude.

Choice is in your hand.It's never late do better take a wise decision regarding your career hence prepare well according the exam you want to go through.

Hello friend ........

Both the GATE and the CAT are good at their own place .
Both of them are the entrance exam one for the M.Tech degree and the other for the MBA degree.

If you want to do higher studies in the Engineering stream then GATE is the better options or if you want to do the management after the engineering b.tech degree then you can give the CAT exam and depending on the CAT percentile you will get the college

Depending on the today's demand most of the students are doing the MBA after completing their B.Tech degree.
Also you will be handsomely paid after the MBA degree.

So i would suggest you to do the MBA after the B.Tech degree so you can give the CAT exam ..

So best of luck

hello dear

see, both GATE and CAT are exam for doing higher study.

if you are interested about to get more technical knowledge from reputed college/university like IITS,NITS etc. then you have to give GATE exam.

but if you want to be a part of managing body in a global company then you have give CAT exam. through the CAT exam you can get opportunity to get admitted top B-Schools like IIMS,ISB,SP jain etc.

but you must remember whether you will do M.TECH or MBA from top college, you have to get good percentile in GATE/CAT .

all the best...........

but GATE is very tough than CAT

because in GATE there is every question is different from
previous year question
there is no same in question pattern .

but if you want to build your career through technical ground
So you go & try for crack this GATE.

So always prefer to CAT easily
But if you build your career through
company sector then you go and CRACK this exam easily...............

dear friend,
both the options are good. the only thing is that in which field you are interested.
if you give gate exam, then you will have to take admission in m.tech only. as m.tech is a purely technical line, it is mostly preferred for b.tech students.
if you are interested in doing business management, then you must give cat exam. after passing the exam, you will get admission in mba which is made only for business purpose.
both the exams are equally tough and needs a lot of hard work to crack.
if you get good marks in any one of these entrance exams, then only you will get admission in a good college.

it is better go to CAT because the exam pattern has been changed and easy to score marks and select good placement based colleges

hey friend

nowadays so many students confused while choosing career option between CAT or MTech
but no need of this.

do a self analysis:

1. are you comfortable in managing?
2.do you feel more enjoyable with technology?
3.do you like being working under someone?
4.do you want to give employment to others rather being working for others ?
5.do you want to exlore the new dimensions in your subject ie research ?


after answering this questions you will have a thought of choosing which the field

well both exams are tough and tact is require to handle them.

in presen era both have equal importance.

Hi,
choosing CAT or GATE depends mainly on your bachelor course as it will be better going in the same field .I thing you have completed BE.
so it is better to do GATE rather than CAT as demand for master degree holders are more when compared to MBA. as number of bachelors doing MBA is more.
But if you are interested in administration then you can do it.

Hello dear.....

Its just like a two side of the same coin....each one has its own importance....

It is totally depended on you....if your interested in continuation of your graduation then you can go for gate entrance exam....by this you can persue your m.tech...where there are many core sector jobs...this is totally technical field...

If your interested through managment course..then i suggest you to go for cat entrance exam....where you can do mba....

At present & in future there is great demand for mba....to crack cat the only thing you need is be dedicated towards your work...self confidence plays an important role...

Make a good choose...

Bright future is waiting for you.....

All the best dear....

Talking about Gate Exam if you would like to have specialization in your branch you can go for M.Tech.Completing Engineering gives you general idea of all the things in your branch. And doing M.Tech. Gives you specialized knowledge in the branch you selected for specialization.

Now if you do not like to study further in technical field and want to change the career path then you can go for MBA. Where you will learn management skills and prepare for CAT.

Hi friend....

Both GATE and CAT are good at their own place

If you are interested to do higher studies in engineering stream you are better to prepare for GATE

If you are interested to do MBA then you will prepare for the CAT

It is totally depended on you

According to your branch you need to select generally GATE will appear for M.Tech

Generally who are interested to do lecturer job they will do M.Tech this is not only for lecturer purpose some other job purpose also

If you want to work in big MNC companies, this companies ask your GATE score so it's useful

If you are interested through management course you will crack the CAT entrance exam

once you crack CAT the only thing you need is be dedicated towards your work and also the self confidence plays an important role

Make a good choose

All the best.......
