Since GATE-2012 many Public sector undertaking
companies signed MOU with GATE committee to recruit GATE qualified candidate
without any other written examination.
GATE-2015 is now right gateway for aspirants to

Exam Pattern for GATE-2015
GATE exam paper will be consists of 65 questions
carrying 100 marks, out of which 10 questions carrying a total of 15 marks are
in General Aptitude (GA). Remaining 45 question will from Technical (your
Branch) and engineering Mathematics.
Types of Questions
GATE exam would contain questions of two
different types:
Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) carrying 1
or 2 marks each in all papers and sections. These questions are objective in
nature, and each will have a choice of four answers, out of which the candidate
has to mark the correct answer(s).
Numerical Answer Questions of 1 or 2 marks
each in all papers and sections. For these questions the answer is a real
number, to be entered by the candidate using the virtual keypad. No choices
will be shown for this type of questions.
Design of Questions
The questions in a paper may be designed to test
the following abilities:
(i) Recall: These are based on facts,
principles, formulae or laws of the discipline of the paper. The candidate is
expected to be able to obtain the answer either from his/her memory of the
subject or at most from a one-line computation.
(ii) Comprehension: These questions will
test the candidate's understanding of the basics of his/her field, by requiring
him/her to draw simple conclusions from fundamental ideas.
(iii) Application: In these questions, the
candidate is expected to apply his/her knowledge either through computation or
by logical reasoning.
(iv) Analysis and Synthesis: In these
questions, the candidate is presented with data, diagrams, images etc. that
require analysis before a question can be answered. A Synthesis question might
require the candidate to compare two or more pieces of information.
Questions in this category could, for example, involve candidates in recognising unstated assumptions, or separating useful information from irrelevant information.
