    Any changes for 2013 will only be visible in September first week of 2012 on the Gate office websites of IITs. This has been the way since past many years. No one can tell about 2013 at this point.

    Yep, and I keep wondering why people write to us (using 'Contact us' form!) enquiring about the GATE eligibility criteria!

    I think they should allow pre-final year students to enroll in GATE, if not more atleast don't allow them to take part in counseling, atleast they can test themselves in examination and get prepared better in final year.
