10. I belong to B.Tech Computer Science. My seniors say that GATE is useless for computer science. Please clarify?

You may get a job in software companies in service sectors, in packages of Rs. 2.5 L to 3.6 L per annum. If you do your M.Tech in premier institutes like IITs, IISc, NITs, IIITs, Central universities and other good government engineering colleges, the salary packages may range from Rs. 6.0 L to 18 L per annum which is really respected.

Software jobs are of two types.

  1. Service Sector in which students of all branches, EE, EC, E & T, IN, ME, CE etc., are eligible apart from CS & IT students. The salary packages will be around Rs. 3 lakhs. You can verify from your seniors in service sector, a student will be selected based on results of General Aptitude, Communication skills. Strength of computer science subject may not be evaluated in depth.
  2. Product based companies: The salary packages of product based companies start from Rs. 6 lakhs to even above 1 crore per annum. They mainly focus on core computer science subjects like Data Structures, DBMS, Operating Systems, Programming Languages, Computer Organization, Discrete Maths, Theory of Automata & Compiler Design along with coding.Once you prepare seriously for GATE exam, these concepts will be crystal clear. On this foundation you build, by GATE preparation, you can get jobs through off campus in various MNCs.

Remember “A war never goes waste”

11. I am an average student. Can I crack GATE?
Our experience with thousands of students shown that

  • You can crack if you prepare systematically with strategy.
  • Even B.Tech second class students cracked GATE with good score/rank and joined premier institutes like IITs/NITs
  • Past is Past. Have a proper plan of action. Our subject experts will guide you systematically till the last minute. Persistence is the Habit of success. Work, Work …… Work ….. you are sure to be the winner.

12. What score should be targeted to get an admission in IIT/NIT?

Based on score:

We all know the jobs in majority of the PSUs are through GATE rank/score. Due to this more number of repeaters are writing GATE exams. Also the aspirants of Engineering Services and civil services are also seriously writing GATE. They don’t join M.Tech in premier institutes like IIT/NITs. Hence majority of the toppers are not trying for higher education.

In view of this,

  • Rank upto 500 may get seat in IITs Directly. (In general category)
  • Rank upto 1500 may get seat through written test/interview (In general category)
  • Rank upto 3000 may get seat in NITs. (In general category)
