All it depends on you are interested in which branch. If you are interested in your branch then it would be easy for you to learn the syllabus of gate for that branch. Dont focus on easier branch but your interest then no one can stop you clearing gate exam.
first of all if you interest in your particular branch and you work hard you can crack the exam .
Interest and hardwork is most important.
civil has more opportunities for government jobs .Mechanical branch has most candidates appearing for gate i.e around 2.5 lakhs and in all branches a rank below 500 general rank is required for psus and below 2000 for mtech in iits.
all the best
Competition is tough in every branch as this is a national level exam.But if you compare these three branches then i would recommend you civil engineering as it has a no. of seats each year and also the syllabus has a lot theoritical parts so it may be easier for you to crack.But, don't think that you can clear GATE by just studying two three months.You have to be consistent.Otherwise all branches have a tough competition.So,be prepared for that.You should opt engineering branch not for GATE it should be according to your interest.Competition is almost same in each branch.
Thanks.
