Engineering Sciences XE*
Life Sciences XL*

#GG (Geology &

Geophysics) paper will
consist of two parts: Part
A and Part B. Part A will be common to both Geology
and Geophysics candidates. Part B will contain two
sections: Section 1 (Geology) and Section 2
(Geophysics). Geology candidates will attempt
questions in Section 1 only. Geophysics candidates
will attempt questions in Section 2 only.
*Papers XE and XL are of general nature and will
comprise the following sections:

XE paper sections (Engineering Sciences)

XL paper sections (Life Sciences)

A candidate appearing in XE or XL paper will be

required to answer three sections. Sections (A) and (H)
are compulsory in XE and XL papers, respectively. The
candidate can choose any two out of the remaining
sections listed against the respective papers.

The choice of the appropriate paper is the

responsibility of the candidate. Some guidelines in
this respect are suggested below:

Candidate is expected to appear in one of the papers,

according to his/her admission plan, keeping in mind
the eligibility criteria of the institutions in which
he/she wishes to seek admission.

GATE Sc orec ard

The GATE scorecard will consist of actual marks

obtained by the candidate, the GATE Score, Percentile
Score and All India Rank (AIR). Scorecard will be sent
only to the qualified candidates. No information will
be sent to candidateswho are not qualified.GATE
scorecard is valid for ONE YEAR ONLY. Additional
scorecards (up to a maximum of two) will be issued
only once on request and on payment of Rs 300 per
scorecard. Such requests should reach the Organizing
Chairman, GATE. These scorecards will be labeled as
AdditionalScorecard -1 and Additional Scorecard - 2.
The GATE score, awarded in the range of 0 to 1000
reflects the candidates academic ability and will be
based on his/her performance in GATE 2009 and the
performances of allcandidates who appeared in GATE
in the last four years. Candidates with the same GATE
score from different GATE papers and/or years can be
considered to have the same performance level.

GATE Sc ore

The GATE Score of a candidate is in the range 0 to

1000. It reflects the performance of a candidate,
irrespective of the GATE paper or year in which he/she
has qualified.Candidates with same GATE Score from
different GATE papers and/or years can be considered
to have the same performance level.

The marks obtained by the candidate is normalized on

the basis of the average and standard deviation of
marks of allcandidates who appeared in the paper
mentioned on thescorecard in GATE. Subsequently,
this is scaled with respect to the global average and
global standard deviation so as to facilitate
performance comparison across GATE papers and over
a block of years since GATE 2004.

Formula For GATE Score is as given

sites.google.com/site/rrsecedept/…/gate 3/4
26-09-2010 GATE - Dept.of ECE, RRSCET

Where

m = marks obtained by the candidate.

a = average of marks of all candidates who
appeared in the paper mentioned on this
scorecard in GATE for that year
s = standard deviation of marks of all
candidates who appeared in the paper
mentioned on this scorecard in GATE for that
year

= global average of marks of all candidates

who appeared across all papers and years
(2005-2008)

= global standard deviation of marks of all

candidates who appeared across all papers and
years (2005-2008)

GATE Percenti le Sc ore

The percentile score of a candidate indicates the

percentage of candidates who appeared in the same
paper and scored less marks than him/her. It is
calculated as follows: If N is the total number of
candidates appearing in a paper, then the percentile
score P is given as,

P = (number of candidates who have scored less

marks thanthe candidate / N) x 100

The Maximum Score can be 1000.

GATE Score Range Ability Level

800 to 1000 Outstanding
675 to 800 Excellent
550 to 675 Very good
425 to 550 Good
300 to 425 Above average
100 to 300 Average
Below 100 Below average

The evaluation of the ORS is carried out by a

computerized process using scanning machines, with
utmost care. Requests for revaluation of the answer
script and re-totaling of marks will not be entertained.

The GATE result and particulars of the qualified

candidateswill be made available to interested
organizations (educational institutions, R & 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.
