thanks for your feedback, my aggregate at the moment is above 70% which isn't a problem, my doubt was, can an engineering graduate, who's taken 5yrs to complete his/her course be eligible to sit for GATE ?

candidates eligible for the GATE Exam are: Candidates in the second or higher year of the four-year Integrated Master’s degree programme (Post-B.Sc.) in Engineering/Technology or in the third or higher year of the five-year Integrated Master’s degree programmes and Dual Degree programme in Engineering/Technology. Currently, these students they can qualify for PG scholarships only in their own Institutions. They are not eligible for admission in a fresh ME/ M.Tech. Programme.. So this z d criteria.

I don't think there is any rule that year back person can not give GATE. But please check the new rules if there are any.

You can apply!
