Thank you so much for the answer. I just want to make sure - the eligibility criteria on the official site mentions only about BSc research or BS degree and that too, a minimum 4-year program is a must. Will a 3-year BSc program instead of 4 make me ineligible?

Hello,

This is the eligibility criteria for UG students who want to give GATE exam -

- An applicant who is enrolled in any undergraduate degree program's third or later year.

- Candidates who have already finished any degree programme in Engineering, Technology, Architecture, Science, Commerce, or the Arts that has been approved by the government are eligible to sit for the GATE 2022 exam.

- However, candidates who hold certification from one or more professional societies must make sure that the exams given by those societies are recognised as being equal to B.E., B.Tech., B.Arch., B.Planning, etc. by MoE/AICTE/UGC/UPSC.

- Candidates from nations other than India who have earned or are pursuing their qualifying degree: Must have completed their Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Technology, Science, Arts, or Commerce (duration: at least 3 years) or be in their third or higher year of study.

Hence, you can give GATE for sure.


Here is the criteria for BSc students -

B.Sc. (Research) / B.S. Bachelor’s degree in Science (Post-Diploma/4 years after 10+2) Currently in the 3rd year or higher or already completed
