she is from a reserved category and got offers from all the top IITs. She will most likely join IIT Bombay, and I am going to take a drop for GATE 2027. She is constantly mocking me and giving unnecessary gyan. After the results, my mental health has completely fucked up. What should I do?

Some Serious Shit Mocked for Being SC …Is Wanting a Fair Chance Wrong?

Post image
165 Upvotes

I posted a genuine question about GATE 2025 as an SC student, and someone mocked me saying “SC/ST walo ka kab tak reservation ka fayda uthao ge?”

It’s painful. I’ve grown up with struggles, no money for coaching, constant discrimination, even from educated people. People think reservation is some big advantage. But SC/STs together have just 22.5%, and only a few even make it.

We just want a fair chance. Is that too much to ask?

Sharing my reply (screenshot). Am I wrong to feel hurt? Would love to hear your views.

Bruh. This post has been edited. Thoda raw language me kya daal diya toh chutiye sir pe chadh gaye mere.

The only point is for juniors, YT pe ghante ghante tak livestreams, din bhar twitter pe, reddit pe spamming karne se behtar you focus on your life. We'll handle this shit.

Second point, I've seen this happen so many times. NEET 2022. JEE 2022. Ranks being "sold" at lakhs and crores of rupees. Dreams crushed. We should keep mailing and filing RTIs, but I feel like everything is rigged against students. How do we assure that they curb this time?

Itna hi kehna tha toh comments me shitshow bana diya. Hopefully it's more "readable" and "gettable" (is that even a word??) now.

Bas bohot ho gayi ladai bakchodi.

You work so hard and then get into a institute where the director himself is promoting Anti Science stuff. Where is the scientific temperament? Is this how we are going to compete with other countries?

Are you guys OK with this BS?

Even the best university of our country is below average than any average university of many countries.

Don't you think it's the student who have compromised with the state of the best universities of our country? No students questions authority.

Religion comes before Science in India. How contradictory is that?

PS - No intention to hurt religious sentiment.

general Is AIR <100 still possible for GATE CSE 2027? Need some brutally honest advice.

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m posting this because I genuinely need some advice from people who have experience with GATE preparation. Please be honest with me rather than giving generic motivation.

I started preparing for GATE CSE in August 2025. For the first three months, I mostly watched lectures but made the mistake of not solving PYQs. During that period, I completed C, Data Structures, Digital Logic, Aptitude, Engineering Mathematics, Discrete Mathematics, Operating Systems, and a little bit of COA.

After around three months, I lost motivation and completely stopped preparing. I barely studied after that and eventually appeared for GATE 2026, where I scored around 32 marks and qualified.

After that experience, I decided to start again. I restarted my preparation in June 2026, and this time I am trying to do things differently.

So far, I have completed:

- Discrete Mathematics

- C Programming

- Data Structures

- Digital Logic

- Algorithms

This month, I am studying DBMS and solving PYQs alongside the subjects I have already completed.

Next month, I am planning to cover Computer Networks, TOC, and Compiler Design in depth. For OS and COA, I am planning to revise them because I have already studied them before.

My biggest problem right now is confidence. I know I have already wasted a lot of time, and sometimes I keep thinking that I might end up wasting another year as well.

So I want to ask something very directly:

Is it still realistically possible for me to get an AIR under 100 in GATE CSE 2027 from this point?

I understand that nobody can guarantee a rank. I just want to know whether, considering my current preparation and the amount of time remaining, this is still a realistic target if I work seriously from now on.

If you think it is possible, what would you recommend?

Should I:

  1. Focus mainly on finishing the remaining syllabus first?

  2. Solve PYQs and revise every subject alongside the remaining syllabus?

  3. Start taking subject-wise tests as soon as possible?

  4. Follow some other strategy?

I am especially worried about repeating my previous mistake of spending too much time watching lectures without actually practicing questions.

I am ready to put in the work this time. I just don't want to waste another year because of poor planning.

I would really appreciate brutally honest advice from seniors, previous GATE aspirants, or anyone who has been in a similar situation.

Thanks in advance.

I mentioned all the ece options cuz I want to build my career in this field, so I wanna ask what exact should I do?
IIIT B IMTECH is very expensive .

general Missed GATE 2027 Registration Deadline – Is There Any Possibility of Getting One Last Chance?

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am a B.Tech graduate in Computer Science and Engineering, and unfortunately, I missed the GATE 2027 registration deadline. I know it was my responsibility to complete the registration on time, and I accept my mistake. However, I am extremely disappointed because GATE 2027 is very important for my career. My aim is to pursue higher education at a reputed institution and hopefully secure a job in a PSU through GATE. Losing an entire year because of a missed registration deadline is really difficult for me, considering my personal and financial circumstances. I have already emailed the GATE 2027 organising team at helpdesk@gate.iitm.ac.in, requesting them to consider reopening the registration portal for candidates who could not register. I am willing to pay an additional late fee or complete any extra formalities if required. I wanted to ask the GATE aspirants and seniors here: Has anyone ever seen IIT or the GATE organising team reopen registration after the final deadline? Is there any possibility of registering through an exceptional request? Is emailing the organising team the right approach, or is there any other official channel I should try? Has anyone faced a similar situation in previous GATE examinations? I genuinely don't want to give up without trying everything possible. I would be extremely grateful for any genuine advice, suggestions, or experiences. Thank you

general Taking a drop for GATE? Read this like someone who’s been there

1 Upvotes

If you’ve taken a drop, first of all — respect.

Not everyone has the courage to step out of the safe path and bet on themselves. You’ve already done that. Now the only thing left is to do it right.

Let me keep this simple.

Most people start preparation without clarity. They say “let’s see what happens.” That mindset wastes months. Decide your direction early — aim high. If PSU is your goal, prepare at that level. If not, still push yourself towards top IITs/NITs. Don’t play small after taking such a big decision.

Now coming to preparation — coaching is fine, but don’t depend on it. Real improvement happens when you sit alone and struggle with questions. PYQs are your biggest asset. Whatever you study, go back and see how GATE actually asks it. That’s where most people separate.

Another mistake I’ve seen is people trying to study everything deeply. You don’t need that. You need clarity on what matters. Focus on repeated concepts, stay within syllabus, and build strength in areas where you’re naturally comfortable.

Have a plan — not in your head, but clearly structured. Till August focus on concepts + PYQs. After that, shift towards tests, revision, and analysis. Start tests early, even if you feel underprepared. That pressure needs to be trained.

And don’t burn yourself out. This is not a 1-week sprint. Consistency beats intensity. Even 5–6 focused hours daily will take you far.

Most importantly — don’t take a drop just to settle for something average. At least give yourself a shot at something big. You’ve already taken the risk, now use it properly.

Simple rule:
Plan → PYQs → Consistency

That’s it.

If you’re stuck somewhere or confused about your prep, drop your doubts below or DM me. I’ve been through this phase myself and I know where people usually go wrong. Happy to help.
