The GATE 2025 exam will be administered via computer-based testing (CBT). There will be thirty exam papers in total for GATE 2025. Only English will be used on the test papers. Candidates may choose to take one or both of the permitted two-paper combinations of tests.
In 2025, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee will host the GATE exam. On behalf of the National Coordination Board (NCB)-GATE, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Education (MoE), Government of India, IISc and seven IITs—IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, IIT Kanpur, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madras, and IIT Roorkee—conduct this examination in tandem.
In order to pursue admission to Masters' programs and doctoral programs in Engineering, Technology, Architecture, Science, Commerce, Arts, and Humanities, as well as in relevant branches of these fields, candidates must pass the GATE 2025 exam in order to be considered for financial assistance from the Ministry of Education (MoE) and other government agencies. The candidates' GATE scores will be valid for three years following the date of the results announcement. Certain colleges and institutions also take the GATE score into account when admitting students to postgraduate programs without MoE scholarships. The GATE score is also being used for hiring by a number of Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs).
