GATE 2020 Number of Candidates registered and Appeared gives you all statistical information about GATE 2020. We have been collecting GATE stats for almost a decade now. If you are curious about the previous GATE Stats do visit GATE stats at InI. All information is collected from GATE organizing institutes.
Overall, a million student appear for GATE exam each year. Don’t be stunned by the numbers, may be your field of engineering have less competition than what you think. It is most important to focus on your own preparation and compete with the highest marks possible. This will help you stay calm during preparation and perform better in exam. We also made an important tool called GATE Score Calculator for accurately given expected marks in different years.
GATE Score Calculator
GATE 2020 has observed that highest number of candidates appeared belong to Mechanical Engineering followed by Civil Engineering. Just to avoid curiosity and save your time I prepared a list of students appeared in GATE 2020 in each stream.
