GATE 2009 has many new changes coming in that  you might want to know. Here are some of the changes that have come into GATE. Take note AeSI guys they might affect your score and final preparation

 

 

  • From GATE 2009, the validity of GATE score will be ONE YEAR only
  • There will be 1/3 negative marking for wrong answers
  • There is a Change in Structure of GATE Papers in GATE 2009
  • In GATE 2009 examination paper will be of 3 hours duration and will contain 60 questions carrying a maximum of 100 marks. The question paper will consist of only multiple choice objective questions.  Each question will have four choices for the answer. Only one choice will be correct. Candidates have to mark the correct choice on an Optical Response Sheet (ORS) by darkening the appropriate bubble against each question.

I guess the one with one year validity will affect you the most. What do you think?

Now one third of the marks will be cut for a wrong answer.

Apart from this some papers have been  been dropped nothing important for AeSI guys but if you want to know click here.
