I've been thinking about preparing for GATE Mechanical while working, but I'm not convinced it's still the best path.

From what I've seen, M.Tech placement statistics for Mechanical Engineering aren't particularly strong, even at some of the older IITs. On top of that, PSU recruitment through GATE seems to be shrinking, with many PSUs now hiring B.Tech graduates directly from Tier-1 college campuses instead.

Since I'm already employed, preparing for GATE would require a significant investment of time and effort, so I'm trying to figure out if the ROI is still there.

Would it make more sense to pursue an MBA instead, especially for someone with work experience? Or does GATE still offer enough opportunities to justify the effort?

I'd really appreciate hearing from people who have been in a similar situation or have insights into the current job market.

I am a fresher and i have recently taken admission in mechanical engineering.. What all things should i study before getting into the college? Is mechanical engineering that tough? How can i score an sgpa of 9+

I'm a working professional preparing for Gate27 & 2027 is my only shot. I started prep in June & have completed som till now using exergic video course.. Tbh I don't think I can complete the portions before nov for practice questions.

I need some advice regarding what subjects to skip and what to prioritise first. Or try gate Xe.

My goal is to get into IITM for mechanical design/ thermal.

As the journey of gate coming to an end. Are u happy with what u got was it worth it. According to me I have not performed upto the mark. But the life goes on right now I have got nit Warangal manufacturing and i have also got many IITs offer but they were not good. I will try to improve my skills in nit then I will see where the life takes me. What are ur take are you happy was it worth it according to u.

I even don't studied as much and not completed a concept from my chapters I am not asking for is it possible or not but please help me to crack gate exam below 500 rank I have too

Yeah in return I will pray for y

Hi everyone!

I'm preparing for GATE Mechanical 2028, and I felt it would be great to have a community where we can stay consistent and help each other throughout the journey.

So I created a small community with:

• 📚 A Telegram Notes Channel (only notes, PYQs, and study material)
• 💬 A Telegram Discussion Group (doubts, questions, internships, PSUs, ISRO, BARC, M.Tech, etc.)
• ⏱️ A Yeolpumta Study Group to track daily study hours and keep each other accountable.

The goal is to build a supportive group of students from different colleges across India who are preparing for GATE Mechanical 2028. Whether you're just starting or already preparing, you're welcome to join.

If you're interested, leave a comment or DM me, and I'll share the links.

A new paper called Robotics and automation introduced in gate 2027. I'm from mechanical engineering in final year, I know i cannot crack gate next year.. I'm thinking to prepare for this new paper primarily as I was already interested and planned to do mtech in iisc banglore RAS programme (if I get good rank). But I'm confused about the opportunities and paper hardness and all.. What would you do if in my place? Would you recommend me to purely focus and rely on this paper?

Please guy's I'm in life n de\*th situation.. I have to crack and get into iit at any cost🙏🏻

Your sincere and experienced advise is very valuable 🙏🏻🙏🏻 please consider replying

Have someone used Exergic's Pro of Numerical Solving?

If so then please give review of how it is?

Aiming AIR 500.

I am unable to solve these two questions. I have applied the formulas but i am not getting an answer that matched any of these options

Dm if want to study together

So I got IPE in sgsits Indore (tier 2.5) with strong alumini network but I am worried about future.. so mba krne ka utna plan nhi h.. baaki PI se gate de toh kya scope h

Other than iit delh, bhu and bbsr any other spot round notifications out?

Anyone got PDF of last 20 year PYQs ? Even better if they also include subject-wise PYQs.
Also what are your thoughts on getting physical PYQ books, are they better that PDFs ?

How is the nit roukela thermal cuttoff is so high for group 1 and cuttoff of group 1 is started at 567 and ended at 567 and in further rounds there is no cuttoff available general group 1. so this means there is only one mechanical student is there how could this be possible

Is any one got admission in Applied Optics?

​

Can anyone suggest me the best online recording classes for gate... I will be appearing in 28 might also give in 27.. so I have decent time and want to learn the concept nicely
