Hello aspirant

Yes, a third year btech student is eligible to write Gate exam. Previously there is no chance for a third year btech students to write a Gate exam it was applicable only for the fourth year students. Indian Institute of Bombay has brought a massive changes regarding the eligibility criteria. As there is no age limit for Gate , students has a benefit of attending the exam twice before they complete their graduation.

Hope this answer helps you.

Hello,

The basic academic qualification required to appear for GATE exam is that the candidate either have passed their engineering degree or master's degree in any relevant science subject, those candidate who are in pre-final year that means third year of their engineering degree are also eligible to appear for GATE exam.
Final year students that means 4th year students of engineering are also eligible for GATE exam.
