Pattern of Examination:
GATE Entrance test is of 3 hours consisting of 65 objective type questions carrying 100 marks. Every question has 4 choices. There is negative marking also for a wrong answer. GATE candidate’s needs to appear in one of the papers available according to the qualification and the degree/branch he/she want to pursue.
