Hello Dear,

GATE score will be calculated using the formula,

Gate score =Sq+(St-Sq)(M-Mq)/((bar of)Mt-Mq)

In the above formula,

  • M : marks obtained by the candidate (actual marks for single session papers and normalized marks for multi-session papers)
  • Mq : is the qualifying marks for general category candidate in the paper
  • t : is the mean of marks of top 0.1% or top 10 (whichever is larger) of the candidates who appeared in the paper (in case of multi-session papers including all sessions)
  • Sq : 350, is the score assigned to Mq
  • St : 900, is the score assigned to M̅t

In the GATE score formula, Mq is usually 25 marks (out of 100) or (μ+σ), whichever is larger. Here μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation of marks of all the candidates who appeared in the paper.

The GATE Committee has the authority to decide the qualifying mark/score for each GATE paper. In case any claim or dispute arises in respect of GATE, the Courts and Tribunals in Roorkee alone shall have the exclusive jurisdiction to entertain and settle any such dispute or claim.

hope you meet the answer.

good luck
