Last option prepare solely for GATE one more year full.Not advisable looking at the sudden change of GATE paper pattern,no one knows what happens on that single day,if you go wrong again back to square one.To sum it up,if you are planning to do Phd try old government colleges,central colleges,JNU will also have entrance in sep-oct, join there in mtech and try for gate next year,if good then leave or else continue the program and try to do Phd or post-doc from outside India.If you have no job experience,suggested is to join good MNC and atleast take 2 years exprnc then try gate or try simulatenously while working.More option for less than 1 year exprnc people..try for CDAC pg diploma course,placements are excellent you can land in product company,entrance test in June-July.Or else if you have enough money or you are bold enough to take a hefty loan give GRE try to go abroad,everyone will try that only,research/higher studies in India sucks big time. 0 0 replyShare Sunny Mukherjee commented Mar 1, 2018 reply Follow flag Thanks a ton for a detailed reply Surajit !! I was pretty much sure about preparing for gate 1 more year but this 2018 Question paper pattern brings me in a big doubt, if on that very day of 2019 my exam goes wrong what after that? i will end up wasting 1 year !!! So i am trying for job but surely will not leave my GATE preparation, will continue because with out GATE, product companies seems to me next to impossible !! 0 0 replyShare Surajit commented Mar 1, 2018 reply Follow flag you are welcome...job experience even service level 2 years is very much necessary..if you are just starting as fresher in mnc absolutely no pressure in companies like tcs where if you are lucky you can enjoy some bench period...enough time to prepare... 0 0 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
