Hello,

With a GATE score of 258 in the SC category and a 72% in your M.Sc. in Physics, securing admission to M.Tech. programs in Nanotechnology at IITs is challenging. Based on previous years' data, IITs typically have higher cutoff scores for M.Tech. admissions , even for reserved categories.

For instance, the GATE cutoff for SC candidates in various disciplines at IIT Madras has often been significantly higher than your current score.
