Dear Sir/Madam,
i have completed my degree in this june,2015. My provisional certificate as well my degree certificates have not been issued yet from the college. When i asked before about the certificate to be enclosed, i was directed to upload my final sem result. I helped my friends with that idea too and we registered our applications uploading our final sem results. Everyone got accepted except mine which says defective certificate ,upload provisional certificate or degree certificate. i tried uploading two three times and it keeps displaying the same notification of defective certificate. I have no other option for now rather than the final sem result. please help. thanking you in advance.
yours truly,
Suchil Luwang

Hello sir,
Is there any use of getting only qualified mark(16.67)……
thanks in advance
Hello Priya,
There are two main uses of qualifying GATE exam :
1. Getting job in PSUs
2. Getting admission for Higher education
For 1st you have to score high for 2nd if you just qualify you may get admission in a good college. If you want to do M tech and don’t want to waste one year for preparation for next year GATE. Also you will get scholarship if you get admission in any college using GATE score.

Hello Sir
I accidentally selected B.Tech instead of B.E in educational qualifications section. What should I do now?
You said it is not a major mistake, but is that ok? Will it not be a problem later? Or should I submit a new form? My application status is under scrutiny as of now. If it gets accepted, does that mean it isn’t a mistake?

There is a clause in GATE Exam Form for final year student i.e. Final year students have to upload authorization letter from College Principal/HOD as a proof of final year student. As IGNOU is an open university, how could I submit the authorization letter from College Principal/HOD? May I upload the last mark sheet as a proof of final year student?

What does year of qualifying degree mean? Please do make it clear.
1) Does it mean the year in which you completed your b.tech course at your college?
OR
2) Does it mean the year in which you pass the all the semester exams and standing backlogs?
I completed course at college in 2012. Is my year of qualifying degree in 2012? or the year in which I will clear my standing backlogs?
Am I a graduate? Because if you put NO in “have you graduated?” it says year should not be less than 2015 or more than 2016.
If I put YES then there is no problem.
Please give me a reply because the helpdesk won’t respond to my emails or respond to phone calls and I am terribly confused.
Hello Aswin,
Year of qualifying means year in which a candidate clear his/her B E / B Tech completely without any active backlog.

Sir the 2 nd option in certificate from principal is only for those who have completed the course or for those also who are in final year with backlog
Hello Amrutha,
1st option is only for those candidates who are in final year.
2nd option is for those candidates who are in final year as well as have backlog from earlier semester/year.
So if you have backlog then only you need to select 2nd option otherwise not.

Hello Neha,
Either they will provide advanced kind of online virtual scientific calculator same as you use for GATE preparation or they will not provide such kind of question in question paper. Because almost all candidates will not be able to solve such questions using normal calculator.

hello..!
currently i m in final year of engg. i.e. 7th sem of engg but having live kt in 5th sem . i am appearing in gate 2016 . so what am i suppose to mark in certificate from principal i mean should i mark 2nd option also that is “he/she appeared in final semester/year exam in 2015 and has backlog to be cleared from earlier semester/ year and therefore can not produce course completion certificate” ?
i have read brochuer but i am confused because in the format of certificate form principal it is mentioned that “for final year or backlog applicant” so what does it mean? that 2nd option is only for 2015 pass ? or should i mark 2nd option also ? plz reply
Hello ankita,
You are currently in final year (7th semester) but have backlog so you have to upload certificate from principle and check mark both the options.

Hi,
I completed my BTech(EEE) in 2012. I Completed Masters in Computers without GATE Score in 2015.
Now can I apply for GATE in computer science for joining PSU’s and for phd admission, If possible should I give my qualifying degree as BTech(I couldnt find Masters in option).
Thanks in Advance
Hello Dhanunjay,
As per GATE 2016 office Information :
You can apply for any of the the two GATE papers (a) Electrical Engineering & (2) Computer Science.
What GATE 2016 office says :If a candidate is pursuing any higher degree or already obtained a degree higher than that mentioned in the above table, then the candidate can select the relevant minimum required qualifying degree while filling the application form.
Click here : http://www.gate.iisc.ernet.in/?page_id=130
But in case of PSUs, As you said you want to use this score for selecting in PSUs then :
For any PSU application through GATE there are two kind of restriction for a candidate.
First in which branch candidate have done B Tech degree.
Second in which GATE paper he/she appeared.
Point to be noted here is they need a candidate with both of these combine correctly.
When you will go through any notification of any PSU which recruit through GATE then you will find that they mention GATE paper for particular post as well as your B Tech degree for that particular post.

sir now i am in final year,but i have a backlog in 6th sem.my doubt is should i submit any records signed by principal for this backlog of 6th sem.
Hello Amrutha,
As far as I know during GATE online application form filling there would be no such option of submitting extra documents. If you find any you may submit it.
Your 6th sem result would be out with your 8th sem. So no need to worry much about it. You are eligible for GATE.
