GATE question of the day

Regarding GATE and LIFE


Well! I am sure most of you are familiar with this phrase, but let’s have some delighted discussion today. Apart from really technical and professional backgrounds let’s capture couple of minutes to have a look over point of views regarding ‘GATE and LIFE’. Sometimes I wander, why the candidate take ‘Year Drop’ for guaranteed!!! Indeed it needs triple hard-work and determination. ‘Year drop’ doesn’t mean that you are going to be topper. On the other hand there are few, who think that the competition is increasing day by day so fetch the best possible seat this year so as to get in-to masters program under MHRD.
Do you know the reason behind the immediate rise of statistics of cutoffs/number of students! It’s all about increasing education and increase in engineering aspirants. It depends upon recession (which force the candidate to go for masters) as well as the number of candidates appeared in IIT-JEE four years ago!!! Yes, these stats were as shocking (at the time of IIT-JEE/AIEEE – 2008 also) as GATE – 2012 results. On the contrary, the number of students entering into Non-Medical has increased during 2005 to 2007. This effect was due to education system of India. Usually students are unable to decide in the age of 15 when they pass out their matriculation. They want to be with their childhood friends and enjoy the freedom after school. So, they pay least attention towards their career and finally parents decide engineering/ doctors’ field for them. Apart from this, 44 marks in 2010 got NIT Trichy and 44 marks in 2011 got NIT Bhopal (in spot round). The competition will remain high on the basis of statistics of corresponding IIT-JEE/AIEEE aspirants!!!
GATE Marks have corresponding GATE scores but ranking changes are diverse. For instance, 35 marks had 7000 ranking in 2011 and 35 marks have 15000 ranking this year. If tomorrow the recession drags down to 0% and need engineers then 90% among us will not go for Masters. Thus, this ranking may again come back to 7000 rank at 35 marks. It may be possibility. So, we can never analyze the stats. We cannot say that if this year cutoff hikes, next year too it will hike even more. You cannot say what is on the other side of line.
Even if we do well, we cannot be sure of other students who are appearing in exams. If you are good, it doesn’t mean that others are not attempting up-to that mark. All the candidates are equally talented. But each one of us cannot acquire IIT. Excuses after exam are mere wastage because 99% of the candidates were unable to give their 100%. Finally, scholars land where they deserve and desire. The struggle of studying for GATE examination is equivalent to the struggle for acquiring a seat in some college premises. Both of these are equally necessary. Even while preparation, do target the best (IISc Banglore) but expect the worst. During admissions, try out for the best and put in your efforts to gain the best but expect for the worst. This is because prior higher expectations may lead to disappointment.
This disappointment is the main reason of depression and pressurized career. Accept what is being provided and live it lively. This may encourage you and cherish you. Your low expectations and best results will lead you to another set of happiness and joy. These moments and its celebrations will be more precious and priceless memory of your life… These examinations are part of the youth life and not the art of the life. We are studying since 20 years of our life. Your various dreams and aspirations are equally important. If you are a true engineer, ‘Maters’ tag in itself will make you proud, you need not be a bookworm and waste 3-4 years of your life for IISc Banglore. Your efforts and achievements will always be appreciated. So, install little livelihood in your life. GOOD LUCK!!!
