✅ Number of candidates appeared (subjectwise) — available in the scorecard for your specific paper.

This scorecard is an official document you can use for admissions to postgraduate programmes, PSU recruitment, or applications where a GATE score is required.

When Can You Use the Scorecard?

  • Admissions: For M.Tech, ME, PhD programmes in IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other universities
  • PSU Jobs: Many public sector undertakings consider GATE scores for recruitment
  • Scholarships & Fellowships: Some institutes require a valid scorecard

What Your Rank Means

  • Higher marks usually mean better rank
