But my question is what do you think , were your mistakes, if not committed, could have get you more marks.?
Ans: i feared a bit... during jee mains i got so many negatives that my nit seat was lost... So this time in gate i calculated my marks during exam... it was around 70...so i was confident that i am getting a seat in iit...so no need to take unnecessary risk and loose it this time...
but later i found that i could have scored a lot more...4 questions i left unattempted whose answers that i calculated were correct...😅... but doesn't matter..in real gate with so much of pressure it is not wise to take such risk...1 mark might get you from iit to nit...very risky !!!

is it if we do competitive programming after GATE as i am in 6th sem and its diffcult to manage time ?
ReplyDeleteAfter gate is fine if you manage time properly. NO worries.
DeleteBro can you share your login id id pass of Ravindra sir . I will pay you money.if u share
ReplyDeleteSir I gave gate this year but i'm getting around 40 marks (this was my second attempt).So should I drop one more year and try again?
ReplyDeleteOne of my friend gave gate this year. he was in tcs. this was his 3rd attempt. He is scoring around 73 this time. pretty good enough to be in an iit. So i believe you should do some job and prepare simultaneously. That helps !!!
Deletebhaiya i am from mechanical background and i want to do iit delhi mtech cse as this course is restricted to ckt branch. if i score top 10 rank will iit delhi administration relax this btech restriction if i approach them ????
ReplyDeleteIIT's are not like that. They are very strict about their rules. You might need to approach Supreme Court for that !!! You might have heard of the recent btech IITB student who said he bymistakely deselected IITB seat. IITB denied admission at any cost. FInally Supreme Court intervened and that boy was allocated a seat in IITB. So from this example you should be aware that IIT's are very strict about their rules and regulations. Once they declare something they abide by it.
