GATE 2009

The Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is an all-India examination administered and conducted in eight zones

across the country by the GATE Committee comprising faculty from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and seven Indian

Institutes of Technology on behalf of the National Coordinating Board - GATE, Department of Education, Ministry of Human

Resources Development (MHRD), Government of India.

Admission to post graduate programmes at engineering and other professional colleges in the country such as IISc Bangalore,

IITs, NITs and other colleges are open to those who qualify through GATE. GATE qualified candidates in Engineering disciplines

are also eligible for the award of Junior Research Fellowship in CSIR Laboratories. Some government organizations prescribe GATE qualification as a requirement for applying to the post of a Scientist/Engineer.

GATE is held on the second Sunday of every February in 21 disciplines, of which Electronics and Communication engineering

(EC) and Computer Science (CS) form the largest chunk.

GATE 2009 Pattern and Changes

The GATE pattern has undergone significant changes over the last few years and the GATE’09 announcement threw up another

surprise. Instead of the usual 85 questions totaling 150 marks, GATE’09 had only 60 questions totaling 100 marks (visit

www.gateforum.com to see the complete pattern details). Another significant change has been in the penalty for a wrong

answer - up from 1/4th in GATE’08 to 1/3rd in GATE’09. Also, the validity of the GATE score has been reduced from two years to

one year. This means that an aspirant has to take up GATE again if he/she wishes to apply the next year.

Though there was a drop in the difficulty level of the questions asked across all streams, the questions had gotten trickier. A

complete understanding of the concepts was required of the candidate in order to succeed. And since the penalty for a wrong

answer was higher, it made the question paper riskier than the earlier ones. We believe that this paper was designed so as so

clearly segregate the good students from the others (For a complete analysis of the GATE’09 paper, visit www.gateforum.com).

Increase in Competition

Although the number of aspirants had been steadily increasing since 2001, GATE’09 saw a significant jump with more than 2

lakh students appearing. ECE and Computer Science had more than forty thousand aspirants while the electrical and

mechanical papers saw more than twenty thousand test takers. This increase in the number can be attributed to the current economic recession which has made jobs scarce and has increased the attractiveness of an M.Tech degree.

The GATE’09 Results Analysis

This is the first time that the marks scored by a candidate have also been displayed. All the ambiguity surrounding the exam has vanished and we can analyze the results objectively.

The table below shows the marks required for a corresponding range of ranks.

AIR Range �

Stream

1-50

51-200

201-500

501-1000

1001-2000

Qualifying

ECE >70 60 – 70 52 – 60 44 – 52 38 – 44 ~ 22

CS >60 52 – 60 46 – 52 41 - 46 35 – 41 ~ 20

EE >48 39 – 48 32 – 39 26 – 32 20 – 26 ~ 16

ME >66 55 – 66 47 – 55 39 – 47 32 – 39 ~ 19

IN >26 22 – 26 18 – 22 15 – 18 ~ 15

The above table clearly shows that the IN paper, along with the EE paper, was the toughest and the ECE paper was the easiest.

The extreme toughness of the IN paper makes a strong case for an instrumentation engineer to appear in the ECE discipline as

the chances of qualifying the exam are better. Also, we can see that the qualifying marks are nearly the same in all the papers.

This years results have also shown that despite the papers being slightly easier, the deceptiveness incorporated in the papers

coupled with the increase in penalty and the increase in number of test takers have intensified competition in the AIR >200 range.

After GATE what?

Once the initial hurdle (GATE) is cleared, an aspirant is faced with another – that of the admission process of various colleges.

Each department of each college has a different selection procedure which often creates confusion and indecisiveness in the

mind of the aspirant. For example, the ME program at the IISc has direct admission whereas the M.Tech program has a written

test followed by an interview and the MS program has only an interview. Hence a candidate has to prepare for all processes

thoroughly. Also, one has to apply to each department separately since there is no common counseling procedure. Hence each

candidate has to judiciously select departments where he has the best chance of getting admission, given his GATE rank. A

rank of below 100 would pose no problems as it would guarantee a seat in either the IISc or IIT Mumbai, but if you have

secured a rank above 100, the options get confusing, especially while choosing the combination of institute and specialization

and also in cases of inter disciplinary admissions. This is where a student will do well to take expert guidance. (Please visit

www.gateforum.com for a comprehensive post GATE admission guide)

We wish you luck in your pursuit of an M.Tech.

IISC

The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) was started in 1909 through the pioneering vision of J.N. Tata. Since then, it has grown

into a premier institution of research and advanced instruction, with more than 2000 active researchers working in almost all

frontier areas of science and technology. IISc is an institute of higher learning and is constantly in pursuit of excellence. It is

one of the oldest and finest centres of its kind in India, and has a very high international standing in the academic world as

well.

Academic programs leading to M.E. or M.Tech by course work and Ph.D. and M.Sc.(Engg.) by research are available in almost

all the departments. Excellent laboratory and computational facilities, an unique library, outstanding faculty with strong

interests in both basic and applied sciences, make 'dream come true' kind of environment to students with strong interest and

aptitude for research. These programs attract students from all corners of the country, in addition to some international

students.

IISc offers ME/MTECH/MS/MSc/PHD in 18 departments/centers. The major research areas of Computer Science, Electrical

Engineering, Electrical Communication Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering are as follows:

Computer Science: - The main areas of research are:

Theoretical Computer Science

Admission Procedure: - The process is different for all the four programs (ME/MTECH/MS/MSc) offered by IISC.

ME: - The admission is purely based on Gate Performance (AIR/Score). There is no test and interview. Rank below 50(AIR 50)

can almost guarantee a seat in ME Course.

MTECH: - Admission to this program is based on the performance in test and interview conducted by respective department.

Center of Electronic Design and Technology (CEDT) and Computational Science department offer MTech Course. A rank of 400-

500 in EC/CS/EE can be said safe range for getting the call for CEDT Course whereas rank in the range of 80-90 is considered

to be safe for getting call from Computational Science department.

MS/MSc: - These are research-orientated programs and admission to these programs is also based on test/interview. Rank as

high as 700-800 could end up in giving an interview call for these programs.

IISC also conducts its own entrance test and good performance (Score/rank) in this test will also be helpful in getting the

interview calls if Gate Score is not sufficient enough for applying.

procedure for every department is as follow

Computer Science: Normally, half of total seats are filled up by direct admission i.e. based on Gate performance and for the

remaining seats test and interview is conducted.

There are no hard and fast rules for total number of student taken each year. The interview panel can take as many students as

possible depending upon their performance in interview. Final merit list is made based on the performance in test, interview

and Gate Score. As per the opinion of previous year students higher the rank in test is, better is the chance of making in the

final merit list. Gate Score hardly makes any difference.

Electrical Engineering: The department offers four different courses. The department does not conduct any test for the

admission to MTech course. Admission is purely based on the interview. The students who got interview call are asked to fill up

one application form once they reach and they have to choose one course/specialization out of four. Finally there are four

separate groups and interview is conducted separately for each group or specialization. Final merit list is made based on the

performance in interview and Gate.

Mechanical Engineering: - MTech seats are offered direct and based on test/interview, similar to Computer Science department. One common interview is conducted for all the specialization falling under Mechanical Engineering and final merit list is based on the performance in interview and Gate Score. Once Again it is the performance of student in interview, which plays a major role for selection.

At the time of counseling, applicants, one-by-one in order of merit (in GATE score), will be offered seats depending upon their

eligibility and options given in the application form. Those applicants who do not report for counseling will not be eligible for

admission in the session. The selected applicants will have to hand over the original Gate Scorecard along with demand draft

towards fees.

One advantage with IIT Kharagpur is that there is no need to fill up different form for different department as one can give

eight preferences (maximum) in a single application form, which is not the case with other IITs. Website: - http://www.iitkgp.ac.in/
