The Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee (IIT-R), the organizing authority of the GATE 2017 exam, has released the admit cards of the candidates who are eligible to appear in the exam. The Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is the entrance examination for admissions in post-graduate courses in IITs, IISc, Universities, Laboratories and various other institutes in India.
For GATE 2017, IIT Roorkee has received more than 9.23 lakh applications. GATE's popularity has gone up since the GATE score is being used as one of the criteria for recruitment in Government organizations such as Cabinet Secretariat and Public Sector Undertakings in India for past few years.
Gate 2017's homepage, which is hosted by IIT Roorkee has also published the list of candidates whose applications have been rejected. The reason has been mentioned as "applicants do not have the requisite educational qualification to appear in GATE 2017. Hence, these applications have been rejected."
Gate 2017 official website has also published the provisional list of candidates who need to bring eligibility/category certificate (as applicable and marked as defective in the mail to you, earlier) to the examination hall at the time of exam and hand over the same to the GATE officials.
