30032014
Delhi & NCR, 29th March 2014: The results of Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE’14) have been announced yesterday. Aditya Reddy, Director GATEFORUM said that the students of GATEFORUM have performed exceedingly well in the test. From the results obtained so far, GATEFORUM students Ankit Goyal has got All India Rank 1 in Electrical Engineering, Shubham Singh has got All India Rank 1 in Mechanical Engineering.
From the NCR Region, Atul Mishra, from Faridabad, has secured All India Rank 16 in Instrumentation Engineering, Gaurav Malik, from Ghaziabad, has secured All India Rank 19 in Instrumentation Engineering, and Abhinav Bansal, from Delhi, has secured All India Rank 20 in Mechanical Engineering.
GATE 2014 examination was conducted for the first time in computer based mode for all the papers this year. The number of students taking the test in GATE 14 was 8,89,156 which is about 10 % lower than 9,84,855 students who appeared in GATE 13. The decrease in test takers can be attributed to a significant drop of female candidates in GATE 14. One reason for the drop is that there was no application fee for female candidates in GATE 13 while there was a fee of Rs 750 in GATE 14 for them.
Apart from admission to post graduate programs in IITs, NITs and other engineering colleges in India, GATE score is used by many Public Sector Undertakings for recruitment of fresh graduate engineers. GATE 2014 exam was conducted from 2nd February to 2nd March, 2014 over 3 weekends.
