The National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) and the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras have launched a free portal to help students prepare for Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE).
The portal— https://gate.nptel.ac.in— will be accessible to all students. GATE scores are used for admissions to postgraduate courses and Ph.D programmes in the IITs, IISc and other reputed institutions, and for recruitment by several public sector undertakings (PSU). Bengaluru-based Amadeus Labs’ corporate social responsibility arm has funded the portal. IIT-Madras director V. Kamakoti, who participated in the launch, on Friday said: “NPTEL is leveraging its content to guide and help candidates prepare and create a level playing field by providing equal opportunities for people to attempt GATE.”
