Scope of PGG

The document prepared serves as a reference and helps a candidate obtain prior information
about the rough cut-offs for colleges. The information is as a result of collation of data from
previous GATE cut offs thereby projecting an idea of what the forthcoming cut offs would be.
Further, the latest information on M.Tech/M.S./PhD admission and job related announcements
will be available on the website: www.thegateacademy.com

ECE Post GATE Guidance

The GATE 2014 Committee with the NCB has the authority to decide the qualifying marks for
each GATE paper. In case any claim or dispute arises in respect of GATE 2014, it is hereby made
absolutely clear that the Courts and Tribunals in Mumbai and Mumbai alone shall have the
exclusive jurisdiction to entertain and settle any such dispute or claim.

GATE Result
GATE result is announced in the month of March and is published on its website.

GATE 2014 score is valid for TWO YEARS from the date of announcement of the result. GATE
2014 result may be made available on payment basis to interested organizations (educational
institutions, R & D laboratories, industries, etc.) in India and abroad based on a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) between IIT Bombay and the requesting organization.

After GATE what?


Subsequent to the GATE exam, even before the result is declared, the student faces another
difficulty regarding the admission process of various colleges.

Different department of a college has different selection procedure which often creates
confusion and indecisiveness in the minds 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.

One has to apply separately to each department since there is no common counselling procedure.
Hence each candidate has to judiciously select departments where he/she has the best chances
of getting admission, given his GATE rank.

A rank below 100 would generally pose no problems as it would guarantee a seat in either
the IISc or IIT. But if you have secured a rank above 100, the options get confusing with
regard to the institute and its specialization or in cases of inter disciplinary admissions. This is
where a student will do well on taking expert guidance. We wish you luck in your pursuit of
M.Tech.

Bangalore on the next day of declaration of the GATE result.
IISc entrance test (independent of GATE) month of April.
Last date to apply- Generally one week after the notification.

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. Centre of Electronic Design and Technology (CEDT) and Computational
Science department offer M.Tech 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. The admission is purely based on Gate
Performance (AIR/Score). There is no test and interview. A rank below 50 can almost guarantee
a seat in ME Course.
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.

Process Modeling, Special purpose Signal Processors and their application in Biomedical
Instrumentation, CAD of LSI/VLSI Systems, Device Modeling, MEMS

Admission Procedure: - Selection is based on performance in GATE and Personal Interview of


short-listed candidates. Marks obtained in GATE and in personal interview will have 70% and
30% weightage respectively. Personal interview will be held to test the following: (a)
Motivation and aptitude for the programme (b) Oral communication skills (c) Skills in basic
science, engineering, and relevant areas. The institute does not conduct any test/interview
except for candidates appearing in GATE from XE/XL papers. The cut-off score for getting
Counselling letter varies from branch to branch. Applicants can choose a suitable course out of
47 courses offered by the institute by their academic background (degree or equivalent in
BE/BTech/BArch/etc.).
At the time of counselling, applicants will be offered seats depending upon their GATE score,
eligibility and options given in the application form. Those applicants who do not report for
counselling 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.

How and when to apply?


Application forms will be released after the GATE result. Watch the admission notification space
on www.thegateacademy.com for updates.
