New in GATE 2016

The organizing institute for GATE in 2016 is Indian Institute of Science (IISc). Students appearing for the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) next year will have the option to challenge the answer keys that are available two weeks after the tests. According to the notification released by IISc, “After completion of GATE 2016 examination, all answer keys will be made available for dispute within a short time. Every answer key can be challenged. A nominal fee will be levied to prevent frivolous challenges.” Apart from challenging the answer keys, this year, students will not be allowed to carry their own calculators into the exam as they will be able to perform calculations on the screens. The GATE notification says that mock tests will also include the on-screen calculator so that students can get used to it. Moreover, a new paper- Petroleum Engineering – has been introduced.                       Source : hindustantimes.com
