GATE ME is one of the toughest competitive examinations in the world. In 2017, to qualify GATE ME, a candidate of the general category had to score a minimum of 32.87 marks. Similarly, for SC/ST and OBC candidates for 2017, the qualifying cut-offs for GATE ME were 21 and 19.7 respectively. The qualifying cut-offs of GATE ME 2018 will be declared by IIT Guwahati on March 17 along with the GATE ME scorecard. The GATE ME 2018 cut-offs for general, SC/ST/PWD and OBC candidates is expected to be 30-32, 18-20, 27-29 respectively. In absence of concrete GATE 2018 cut-offs, to be assured of qualifying, a GATE ME 2018 candidate should persevere to exceed the expected cut-offs of GATE ME 2018 and that of GATE ME 2017 by at least a few marks. Candidates should also study previous years’ GATE ME cut-offs.
Assuming that the GATE ME candidate has qualified GATE 2018, he/she has a choice between a variety of PSUs and the MTech programmes at the IITs and other premier institutes.
