Hello dear,

The GATE exam is conducted all over India for the admission to the IITs and other renowned institutions. According to the gate score,you will be allowed to admit, and of course the best part is that you will also get a monthly stipend of about 8000-10000 as your financial aid.

So as far as GATE is concerned,there is no "point" about considering the so called"CGPA",you have to clear all the subjects and you should not have any standing arrears or backlog.

So,go for it, prepare well and you can do it.

regards,
yash

Some of the main M.Tech colleges are : IIT's, NIT's, Jadavpur University, BITS, etc.


The Basic Eligibility Criteria's to apply for the GATE exam are :
