GATE 2021 Civil Engineering (2) Question Paper & Answer Key

Based on the GATE 2024 cut-off scores, the qualifying mark for the SC category in the Humanities and Social Sciences (English) paper (XH-C2) was 32. Given that you scored 25 marks, which is below the previous year's SC category cut-off, securing admission to IITs this year may be challenging. However, cut-off marks can vary annually based on factors like exam difficulty and the number of applicants. It's advisable to consult the official GATE 2025 results and individual IIT admission criteria for the most accurate and current information.

Hi,

Based on the previous year analysis, With your GATE 2025 marks which is 15.33 marks in SC Category, in electronics and communication engineering branch. You don't have any chances to get a seat in any of the engineering colleges for M.Tech course.

For more information, you can predict colleges in which you have chances to get admission using the career360 Gate 2025 college predictor tool provided below

Hope this information will help you

Yes, you can apply as EWS during CCMT 2025 if you have a valid EWS certificate, even if you filled your GATE 2025 form as General. The category selection in GATE does not affect CCMT counselling eligibility.

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.

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.
