ear Students, The Questions of GATE 2014 : EC are based on fundamental and basic concepts of the syllabus. There is no ambigu-
ity and misprint noticed till now, however, it is an observation based on students feedback. The level and standard of GATE 2014 questions are relatively easier than the exam of GATE 2013. There are 3 important observations made by me about GATE 2014 exam.
1.
The GATE exam 2014 has been conducted in 4 seatings. The questions were different in each session and difficulty level of questions were also different from session to session. The papers of 15th Feb. evening and 16th Feb. morning session were relatively easier than rest two sessions, however it varies on the perception of person to person also.
The average marks on all the papers should be equated and necessary scaling criteria should be adopted for this purpose.
2.
The GATE 2014 cut off is expected to be slightly higher than previous year. The cut-off may vary between 27-30 marks (General Category). Total Marks obtained by all the candidates GATE Cutoff = Total number of candidates GATE cutoff < | 25 Marks
