Hello learner,

The purpose of the GATE exam is to test students knowledge and understanding of their under Graduate level subjects in Engineering and Science. The GATE score of the candidate is also used by several public sector undertakings (PSU) (i.e., government-owned companies like Indian Oil, GAIL, and Hindustan Petroleum etc.) for recruiting graduate engineers in entry-level positions, to get Fellowship Programs from CSIR and Scholarships in ME/M.Tech and many more.

IIT Bombay releases the eligibility criteria for GATE via online.GATE 2021 eligibility criteria will consist of parameters like academic qualification, nationality and more which candidates will have to meet in order to appear for the entrance examination.

Academic Qualification is, Candidates must have passed graduation in engineering/technology or Master’s degree in any relevant science subject. The Candidates who're pursuing Science, must accomplish their Masters in order to take up GATE.Because, only BE/B.Tech students are permitted to take, GATE after their undergraduate.

So, if you desire at taking up GATE, it is practically impossible now. Whereas, you can successfully complete your Masters, and take up GATE.

Good Luck!
