Hello,

With a GATE score of 255 in Computer Science (CS) and belonging to the SC category, securing admission to top IITs may be challenging, as their cutoffs are generally higher.

With a score of 255, your options might include:

• State Government Engineering Colleges: Many state-level institutions have varying cutoff scores and may offer M.Tech admissions with your GATE score.

• Private Engineering Colleges: Some private institutions accept GATE scores for their postgraduate programs and might have more flexible admission criteria.

• Self-Financed Programs: Certain universities offer self-financed M.Tech programs where the competition might be less intense.

Hope it helps !
