APSEd has analysed the GATE 2021 paper. The key highlights of the ES papers are as follows:
GATE 2021 ES paper being introduced, the only source of information we had to access beforehand were the ES syllabus and sample paper. Overall the paper was moderate, neither too tough nor easy.
The paper had more conceptual questions rather than memory-based questions. A clear understanding of topics was required to attempt the questions. There were a few tricky questions as well.
The GATE ES paper had about 10-12 MSQs.
Aptitude and Mathematics turned out to be easy and direct questions were asked from these subjects.
There was a good emphasis on NATs with 12-15 questions asked, especially from subjects like Solid Waste Management, Water & Waste Water Engineering and Environmental hydraulics.
The questions were divided among all subjects, almost in line with the Environmental Science sample paper subject weightage
Solid and hazardous waste management carried the maximum weightage in the paper out of all the ES subjects. Water & Waste Water Treatment and Management was next to this, in the paper around 8 questions were asked from the same.
Global and regional environmental issues, Environmental Chemistry carried the least weightage in the paper.
APSEd will release the answer key as soon as the response sheet is out by IIT Bombay Officials in the 3rd week of February.
Based on the paper analysis, and the previous year new GATE papers introduced - experts at APSEd have predicted the cut-off for GATE Civil Engineering 2025.
In recent years when they introduced some new papers in GATE, their cutoff went pretty high, as high as 35. These papers' cutoff (having fewer candidates) is very volatile, so it is difficult to predict. It goes 35 in one year and 25 in the next year. This was probably due to less number of candidates appealing for the paper or easy level of the papers.
This GATE ES paper had around 15000 candidates, so we compared the paper with GATE Physics, Chemistry and Instrumentation, which had around the same number of candidates. The OC cut-off may swing around 30.
Coming to the rank part, a paper which has less number of candidates generally gives you a very good rank with a comparatively low score. Talking about GATE Physics, a 70+ mark would give you a top 100 rank, and a 60+ in GATE Chemistry would give you a top 100 rank. In these papers, just 40+ marks give you a top 1000 rank. The GATE ES paper is comparable with these papers.
Disclaimer: The highlights, paper analysis, subject weightage and expected cutoff are memory-based and based on students who appeared for GATE 2025 ES.

Hello, with an AIR of 25070 and a score of 499 in NEET PG 2025 under the General category, getting a government seat in West Bengal for highly demanded branches like General Surgery or Orthopedics may be difficult, as these usually close at much higher ranks. However, you still stand a chance for other clinical or para-clinical branches through the state quota counselling. I suggest using the NEET PG college predictor link I’m sharing here, which will give you a clearer idea of the colleges and branches you may get based on your rank and category.
