This question is asked few friends, instead of answering individually I m writing this and hope that this will help many like them.
Valid GATE score the term is little confusing for students as everyone got a GATE score and think its valid that is why they have score.
There are two things associated with it. One is valid time period and qualifying marks. Both the conditions should be satisfied to apply for admission to that institution.
GATE score are usually valid for two years, for example if you give GATE in 2010 and your marks are above qualifying marks, you are eligible to apply in 2011 for Master of Engineering admissions. But in 2012 your score is considered as invalid.
The next condition is about qualifying marks. Mere getting score does not show that its valid GATE score. Your score is only valid when it is above or equal to the score of qualifying marks. For example, if you have 16 marks and the qualifying marks for that year are mentioned as 25, then your GATE score is not valid.
Another question may rise, for this year I got 16 marks and qualifying score was 25, if next year qualifying marks decreased to 15, does it make my score valid? The simple answer is NO. The results for the same years will be considered for valid and invalid scores.
Hope, this cleared doubts about Valid score or not. I wrote this because I got lot of questions about valid GATE score and GATE percentile calculation and for more details about different GATE related tips visit GATE and M.Tech admission tips.
Please feel free to answer in case of any doubt and also do not hesitated to suggest or correct me if I m wrong. This will help thousands of students across India.

I would like to correct you on your following statement:-
“Mere getting score does not show that its valid GATE score. Your score is only valid when it is above or equal to the score of qualifying marks. For example, if you have 16 marks and the qualifying marks for that year are mentioned as 25, then your GATE score is not valid.”
As per my research on http://www.gate.iitb.ac.in/gate2010_website/ and http://www.gate.iitb.ac.in/gate2010_website/score.php ;
1) The Qualifying Score is the minimum mark that needs to be secured to become eligible for availing assistantships provided by MHRD, GOI.
2)Some institutions specify GATE qualification as mandatory even for admission of self-financing students to postgraduate programmes.
Hence, unless the colelge specifies on the rules that they have some other provision for self-financed students, the GATE score is VALID for self-financed students.
So please correct you statement or correct me if I am wrong.

Hello Sir
If a student qualified in GATE 2011 then how he can take admission to ME/M-Tech in the year 2012 on the basis of GATE 2011 score? How his performance (i.e. rank, GATE score, etc.) are analyzed with the students who appeared for the GATE 2012 exam? If a student A gets a score 30 in GATE 2012 and his score is less than a student B who appeared for GATE 2011 and scored 31 then how both the students rank are made or compared?
