GATE Scores

For PSUs, it is 2 years and for IITs, it is for 3 years.

Hello Shweta,
You can get a college through this percentile. My advice is:
1. Join to some job and prepare simultaneously for GATE.
2. Take a year drop and prepare for GATE aiming rank less than 100, join IITs for VLSI, you will get minimum package of INR. 12 LPA guaranteed in your core sector.
All the best.

Most of the colleges take admission only when you clear the GATE exam. Moreover, you should check the cutoff of the different colleges, as it gets changed every year.

The admission process is different in every college. Here is the list of the M.Tech food technology colleges:

Your GATE score should be more than 550 for this college.

Your GATE score should be above 500 for this programme.

GATE score required for IISC-Bangalore is more than 750. For safer side, your score should be 800 above to get good branch.

There is no meaning of marks in GATE. It depends on the rank and also in branch. If you are from MECH, CIVIL or EE, then only you can get your state government college. But, if you are from ECE, then you can apply for new NITS or IIITS.

You cannot get M.Tech in older IITs, but I think you will get interview calls from the newer IITs. You can even apply for M. S and Ph.D. programs in IIT if you are interested in pursuing a research career. Just focus on 3 subjects, because in the interview you will be asked only questions on your subject of interest. Try to write GATE again to get in a good college.

Hello Ayush,
It is indeed great to hear from you that you are interested in doing your M.Tech in environmental engineering branch. It is the branch of the future.
