With a GATE score of 406, it’s unlikely that you can secure admission to IIT Madras for CSE or ECE as the cutoff for these programs is much higher, especially for the General category.

IIT Madras GATE Cutoffs (2024):

CSE: Around 845 for General.

ECE: Around 510 for General.

Alternatives:

Other IITs: Consider newer IITs where the cutoff may be lower.

NITs and IIITs: They may have more accessible cutoffs for M.Tech.

State and Central Universities: Institutes like Jadavpur University or Anna University could b e good options.

With a GATE 2025 CS score of 406 and AIR ~14,000 , securing M.Tech in Cybersecurity at IITs is unlikely, as they typically require scores above 750. For PSU recruitment , most companies have cutoffs ranging from 750 to 850 , making opportunities limited.

Alternative Options

• NIT Patna : In 2024, the ST category cutoff for M.Tech Cybersecurity was 277 . With your score, you might have a chance, especially in later rounds.

• Private Universities : Institutions like UPES Dehradun and Shiv Nadar University offer M.Tech in Cybersecurity with more flexible admission criteria.

• Certifications : Enhance your profile with certifications such as CEH or CISSP to improve employability.

For a personalized list of colleges you might be eligible for, you can use the Careers360 GATE College Predictor .

Hello Seema,

With a GATE score of 325 in Civil Engineering (CE) and being from the SC category, you have good chances of getting into various reputed institutes. Here's a breakdown of potential options for M.Tech admission:

1. Top NITs (National Institutes of Technology):

• NIT Delhi : As you're from Delhi, NIT Delhi could be a strong option, considering your category and GATE score.
  
  

• NIT Trichy (NIT Tiruchirappalli) : It might be slightly competitive, but you can get into branches other than the top ones in Civil Engineering.
  
  

• NIT Warangal, NIT Calicut, NIT Surathkal : While your chances in these institutes will depend on the branch preference, your score places you in a good position for several Civil Engineering specializations.
  
  2. New IITs:

• IIT (ISM) Dhanbad : A decent chance to get Civil Engineering specialization.

• IIT Patna, IIT Roorkee : These newer IITs have good infrastructure and a growing reputation for Civil Engineering.

• IIT Gandhinagar : A potential option, though the competition might be high.
  
  3. State Universities:

• Delhi Technological University (DTU) : As you're from Delhi, DTU could be an option for your M.Tech in Civil Engineering.
  
  

• Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI), Delhi : Offers M.Tech courses in various branches, including Civil Engineering, and has a fair chance with your score.
  
  

• University of Delhi (DU) : They also offer M.Tech courses in collaboration with various departments.
  
  4. Other Universities (in Delhi/NCR):

• Indraprastha University (IPU) : They may offer M.Tech courses through GATE scores, and you can consider applying there.
  
  

• Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) : Also another option in Delhi NCR.
