GATE 2024: Eligibility Criteria
A candidate who is in the last year of any undergraduate degree programme or who has previously finished any government-approved degree programme in Engineering/Technology/Architecture/Science/Humanities is eligible to take the test. There is no upper age limit to take GATE 2024.
GATE 2024: Application Fee
Applicants from the general category must pay an application fee of Rs 1,800, while those from the SC, ST, PWD, and female categories must pay Rs 900. Candidates applying for two papers would have to pay twice as much as those applying for a single paper, stated to the institute.
GATE 2024: Exam Pattern
GATE 2024 will include 30 objective test papers, all of which will be in English. Candidates are only permitted to take one or two exam papers. Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ), Multiple Select Questions (MSQ), and Numerical Answer Type (NAT) questions are among the different question formats. There is only one right answer in MCQs out of a possible four. In MSQs, one or more of four alternatives are correct and in NAT questions, the answer must be entered via a virtual keypad. For calculations, applicants must only utilise the on-screen virtual calculator offered.
For incorrect responses, a negative marking will be applied which means that for a 1-mark MCQ, a third of the score will be deducted. Similarly, for a 2-mark MCQ, an incorrect answer will result in a 2/3 mark deduction. There is no negative marking for incorrect MSQ and NAT responses.
The GATE 2024 scorecard will be valid for three years after the results are announced. Candidates with BDS, BVSc, and BSc degrees in agriculture, horticulture, and forestry may also sit for the GATE 2024.
