Get Details on GATE 2020 Exam Date, Pattern and Application Form.
About GATE Exam - Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering - GATE is an examination conducted jointly by the IISc Bangalore and the seven IITs (at Bombay, Delhi, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee) for admission to postgraduate programs (Master's and Doctoral).
Organising Institute - IIT Delhi
The GATE 2020 score is valid for THREE YEARS from the date of the announcement of the results.
Several Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) have used GATE scores to shortlist the candidates for employment. A few such organizations are:BHEL, GAIL, HAL, IOCL, NTPC, NPCIL, ONGC and PGCI.
GATE 2020 Eligibility -
Age - No age limit.
GATE 2020 Pattern -
Duration - 3 hours
No of Questions - 65
Total Marks - 100
Mode - ONLINE Computer Based Test
GATE 2019 would contain questions of two different types in all the papers:
(i) Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) carrying 1 or 2 marks each in all the papers and sections. These questions are objective in nature, and each will have a choice of four answers, out of which the candidate has to select (mark) the correct answer.
Negative Marking for Wrong Answers: For a wrong answer chosen in a MCQ, there will be negative marking. For 1-mark MCQ, 1/3 mark will be deducted for a wrong answer. Likewise, for 2-mark MCQ, 2/3 mark will be deducted for a wrong answer.
(ii) Numerical Answer Type (NAT) Questions carrying 1 or 2 marks each in all the papers and sections. For these questions, the answer is a signed real number, which needs to be entered by the candidate using the virtual numeric keypad on the monitor (keyboard of the computer will be disabled). No choices will be shown for these type of questions. The answer can be a number such as 10 or -10 (an integer only). The answer may be in decimals as well, for example, 10.1 (one decimal) or 10.01 (two decimals) or -10.001 (three decimals). These questions will be mentioned with, up to which decimal places, the candidates need to present the answer. Also, for some NAT type problems an appropriate range will be considered while evaluating the numerical answer type questions so that the candidate is not unduly penalized due to the usual round-off errors. Wherever required and possible, it is better to give NAT answer up to a maximum of three decimal places.
There is NO negative marking for a wrong answer in NAT questions.
In all the papers, there will be a total of 65 questions carrying 100 marks, out of which 10 questions carrying a total of 15 marks will be on General Aptitude (GA), which is intended to test the Language and Analytical Skills.
