Government of India.
The GATE 2015 score of a candidate reflects a relative performance level in a particular subject in the exam across several years. The score is used for admissions to post-graduate programs (e.g., M.E., M.Tech, direct Ph.D.) in Indian institutes of higher education with financial assistance provided by MHRD and other Government agencies. The score may also be used by Public and Private Sector Undertakings for employment screening purposes.
Marking: There will be Negative marking for GATE 2015 with a deduction of 1/3 marks for a wrong answer to a 1-mark multiple-choice question and 2/3 marks for every wrong answer to the 2 mark questions.

- Candidates must know that all papers will have a section on General Aptitude which is compulsory with 10 questions that carry 15 marks.
- All question papers will have 65 questions for 100 marks where 55 questions will be for the subject on hand and Engineering Mathematics if applicable.
- Question Papers with codes - AE, AG, BT, CE, CH, CS, EC, EE, IN, ME, MN, MT, PI, TF and XE will have a section devoted to Engineering Mathematics. This will carry 15% of the total marks while the Engineering Mathematics section will carry 15% and the rest of the 70% will be for the subject specialization.
- Question Papers with codes - AR, CY, EY, GG, MA, PH and XL, the subject questions will carry 85% of the marks while the remaining 15% will be devoted to the General aptitude as mentioned above.

Types of Questions in GATE 2015 Exam Paper: Questions will be of two types as follows
1. Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) :
- These carry 1 or 2 marks each in all papers and sections.
- These questions are objective in nature with a choice of four answers, out of which the candidate has to mark the correct answer(s).
2. Numerical Answer Questions:
- These carry 1 or 2 marks each in all papers and sections.
- The answer for these questions is a real number which has to be entered by the candidate using the virtual keypad.
- These questions will not be showing any choices
- An appropriate range will be considered while evaluating the numerical answer type questions so that candidates are not penalized due to the usual round-off errors
GATE 2015 Question Paper Design: Candidates will be tested in the following areas of ability
1. Recall:
- The questions are based on facts, principles, formulae or laws of the discipline of the paper.
- Candidates are expected to be able to obtain the answer either from memory of the subject or from a given one-line computation.
For Example:
Q. During machining maximum heat is produced
(A) in flank face
(B) in rake face
(C) in shear zone
(D) due to friction between chip and tool
2. Comprehension:
- These questions aim to test the candidate's understanding of the basics of his/her field.
- Candidates are required to draw simple conclusions from the given fundamental ideas.
For Example
Q. A DC motor requires a starter in order to
(A) develop a starting torque
(B) compensate for auxiliary field ampere turns
(C) limit armature current at starting
(D) provide regenerative braking
3. Application:
- In this section, candidates are expected to apply their knowledge through computation or by logical reasoning to arrive at the answers
- Questions in this section may be a mix of single standalone statement/phrase/data type questions , a combination of option codes type questions or a match items type questions
For Example
Q. The sequent depth ratio of a hydraulic jump in a rectangular channel is 16.48. The Froude number at the beginning of the jump is:
(A) 5.0 (B) 8.0 (C) 10.0 (D) 12.0
4. Analysis and Synthesis:
- Candidates are presented with data, diagrams, images etc. that require analysis to answer the questions in this section
- A Synthesis question requires comparison of two or more pieces of information that is given.
- Questions may also involve candidates in recognising unstated assumptions, or separating useful information from irrelevant information.
