GATE

Hey rio,I got 69 marks in 12th Board math and got 92% in jee. I cant apply for nit's but I got good college with this rank. Let me give the details:You can write jee marks withouy any minimum marks in board but for getting admission in NIT, IIT or gift universities you should have 75% [65% for sc/st] in your boards or top 20% in your repective board. With good jee percentage like above 90%, you can get many good unversities. So if you have low marks in 12th, you can consider jee as option.For the GATE again, there is no minimum percentage required in the qualifying degree. Any qualified graduate degree in engineering, technology, or Science is acceptable to be considered for GATE.UPVOTE if u find it helpfull.

For admission to IITs through GATE in the General-EWS category, the required score varies depending on the branch and competition. However, here's a general guideline:Required GATE Scores for IITs:Core Engineering Branches (CSE, ECE, Mechanical, Civil):Top IITs (e.g., IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi): 700+ GATE score.Mid-tier IITs (e.g., IIT Guwahati, IIT Roorkee): 600-700 GATE score.Newer IITs: 500-600 GATE score.Interdisciplinary Programs (e.g., Data Science, Energy Studies):Scores between 450-600 may suffice, especially for newer or less competitive programs.Factors Affecting Cutoff:The difficulty level of the exam.Number of applicants in your stream.Availability of EWS category seats.To improve your chances, aim for a rank under 500 or score above 600 for most branches.
