Gate is the acronym of the Graduate Aptitude
Test in Engineering. A gate exam is a qualifying examination that is
being conducted all over India primarily for testing the complete understanding
of different undergraduate subjects in science and engineering. The gate exam
is conducted together by a seven Indian Institutes of Technology and the Indian
Institute of Science in support of the National Coordination Board, Higher
Education department, and office of the human resources development of India.
The marks secured in the gate exam by a
candidate tell the level of his or her relative performance. The mark of the
gate exam is exercised for admissions to different post-graduate programs such
as Master of Technology, Master of Engineering, and Doctor of Philosophy in the
higher edification institutions of India, with financial support offered by the
Ministry of Human Resources Development of India and other government
organizations. In recent times, the marks of the gate exam are being used by
numerous Indian public sector undertakings as well for hiring graduate
engineers in admission-level positions.
