    GATE Score Card

    * Score card will be sent only to the qualified candidates. No information will be sent to candidates who are not qualified.

    * The GATE score card is a valuable document. Care should be taken to preserve it. Additional Score Cards, (up to a maximum of two) will be issued on payment basis only once.

    * The Score Card cannot be treated as a proof of category.

    * The score card of the Qualified Candidates will include GATE Score, Percentile Score and Rank.

i. GATE Score

The GATE SCORE of a candidate is a statistical performance index in the range 0 to 1000. It reflects the ability of a candidate, irrespective of the paper or year in which he/she has qualified. Candidates with same GATE SCORE from different disciplines and/or years can be considered to be of equal ability i.e. they have same performance level.

To facilitate performance comparison across GATE papers and over a block of years since GATE 2004, this PI is scaled with respect to the global average and global standard deviation. 

NOTE: The Maximum GATE Score can be 1000.

  Percentile Score

The percentile score is not the same as percentage of marks. The percentile score of a candidate shows what percentage of candidates, who appeared in the same paper in GATE 2006, scored less marks than him/her. It is calculated as follows:
Let N be the total number of candidates appearing in that paper and nc be the number of candidates who have the same all India rank c in the same paper (there can be bunching at a given all India rank). Then all the candidates, whose all India rank is r, will have the same percentile score P,  

P = {(no. of candidates securing marks less than the candidate concerned)/N}x100

    * Requests for revaluation of the answer script and re-totaling of marks will not be entertained.

    * The GATE result and particulars of the qualified candidates will be made available to interested organizations (educational institutions, R and D laboratories, industries etc.) in India and abroad based on written request by the organization and on payment. Details can be obtained from GATE Chairmen of IITs / IISc.
