GATE 2021 Chemical Engineering Question Paper & Answer Key

According to current predictions, the GATE XL (Life Sciences) cut-off for 2025 is expected to be around 28-32 marks for the General category, with slightly lower marks for reserved categories like OBC-NCL and SC/ST.

The exact cut-off can vary depending on the difficulty level of the exam in a given year. A tougher exam might lead to a lower cut-off.

Analyzing previous year cut-offs can give you a good idea of the range you can expect.

The number of candidates appearing, available seats in desired programs, and overall performance of candidates all play a role in determining the final cut-off.

To get a more accurate prediction of your GATE XL rank, you can use online GATE rank predictors:

Hello

Qualification Possibility

The GATE XL cutoff for the General category varies yearly but ranges between 30-35 marks.

If the cutoff this year is below 33 , they will qualify. If it is higher, they won’t.

Rank Prediction

Rank depends on the total number of candidates and overall difficulty of the exam.

A higher cutoff means more competition and a lower rank for 33 marks.

They can check online GATE rank predictors or wait for the official result.

Hope this gives you the clarity you need .

GATE 2025 rank prediction depends on marks and varies by discipline. For CSE, scoring 85+ may secure a top 10 rank, 75-80 could be within 50, and 50-56 may fall in the 1,000-2,000 range. Actual ranks depend on exam difficulty and candidate performance.

Hello Praveen,

GATE does not have a separate Avionics paper. Candidates usually appear for Aerospace Engineering (AE) , which covers relevant topics.

Key Subjects for GATE AE (Avionics-related):

1. Engineering Mathematics – Linear Algebra, Calculus, Differential Equations, Probability & Statistics.
   
   
2. Flight Mechanics – Aircraft performance, stability, control, and flight dynamics.
   
   
3. Space Dynamics – Orbital mechanics, Kepler’s laws, trajectory calculations.
4. Aerodynamics – Airfoils, wings, compressible flows, shock waves.
5. Structures – Stress, strain, aircraft materials, vibrations, and elasticity.
6. Propulsion – Jet engines, turbomachinery, combustion, rockets.

Refer to the official GATE syllabus for a detailed breakdown.

A BSc Cyber Security graduate is generally not directly eligible for M.Tech in IoT via GATE , as most institutes require a B.Tech/BE in CS, IT, ECE, or related fields . However, you can pursue M.Tech after completing MCA or MSc in a relevant field. Some universities may allow admission with a qualifying bridge course . Additional requirements include GATE score, minimum CGPA, and possibly an interview . Check specific institute eligibility criteria, and consider alternative options like MSc in IoT or PG diplomas if M.Tech isn’t available.

Hello

A BSc in Cyber Security graduate is generally not eligible for MTech in IoT through GATE as GATE is primarily for BE/BTech and MSc students. some universities may allow BSc students with an MCA or MSc in a related field.

Other requirements :

1. Eligibility – Check if the university allows BSc graduates. Some require an MSc/MCA.

2. GATE Paper – You may need to appear for CS (Computer Science) or EC (Electronics & Communication) if eligible.

3. University Specific Criteria – Some institutes conduct their own entrance exams for non-engineering backgrounds.

Hope this gives you the clarity you need.

A BSc Cyber Security student can get admission to M.Tech in IoT via GATE , but eligibility depends on the institute. Most IITs, NITs, and top universities require a B.Tech/BE in CS, IT, ECE, or related fields . However, some institutes accept BSc graduates with MSc, MCA, or a bridge course . Additional requirements may include minimum CGPA, programming skills, and entrance tests/interviews . Check specific university eligibility criteria before applying and consider alternative pathways like MSc IoT if M.Tech is restricted.

Hello there,

No, the Technical University of Munich (TUM) does not accept GATE scores for admission to its master's programs. TUM primarily evaluates applications based on academic performance (CGPA), GRE (for some programs), English/German language proficiency, and relevant experience.

However, some German universities do accept GATE scores for specific programs. If you are interested in TUM, check the exact admission requirements on their official website or consider applying to universities that accept GATE for MS programs in Germany.

Hello,

To prepare for the GATE exam, start by selecting the right subject based on your undergraduate degree. Understand the syllabus, exam pattern, and weightage of topics. Use standard reference books, NPTEL lectures, and online resources for conceptual clarity. Solve previous years’ papers and mock tests regularly to improve speed and accuracy. Focus on core subjects, engineering mathematics, and aptitude. Create a structured study plan and revise frequently. If needed, join coaching or online courses for expert guidance. Stay consistent, analyze mistakes, and work on weak areas. Time management and problem-solving skills are key to success.
