DRDO used to conduct SET exam for entry of Scientist but this year they have resorted to GATE score. This may become rule now on wards. GATE score will be used to shortlist candidates for interview and then POINTS course i.e. Post Induction training school at DIAT Pune followed by posting to different laboratories spread across India.

Since GATE has become a standard for many PSUs and now to DRDO, you may wish to have best GATE score possible to join DRDO
