GATE 2021 Rank vs Marks, GATE 2021 Rank vs Score – What will be my GATE 2021 rank? is the topmost question in the minds of all candidates who have appeared in the exam. Now that IITB has released the response sheet, and answer keys are to some extent already there, the rush to predict rank has begin.

With this in mind, we have given here an analysis of GATE rank vs marks vs score for GATE 2021 candidates. This will help you get an idea of what rank to expect at what score and marks.

Latest – GATE 2021 response sheet released!

Highlights of GATE Rank vs Marks vs Score

To know what rank to expect at what marks and scores, we have to check last year result records. For the same, we have gone through candidate answers on quora threads and other places where they have provided their score, marks, ranks in past GATE results to provide you the following data.

Here are some quora answers that throw some light on marks vs score vs rank.

You can check the following curated threads for best answers on rank vs marks vs score analysis:

• GATE rank vs GATE score in GATE 2020 discussion on quora
• Quora thread on GATE 2020 result discussion

GATE 2021 Rank, Marks, Score

To arrive at the GATE 2021 rank, you have to first arrive at “Marks”, then “Score” and then the “Rank”. Here is how to go about it.

GATE 2021 Marks

GATE 2021 examination was conducted for 27 subjects. Candidates could opt for upto 2 subjects as per their preferences. Each paper had 65 questions of maximum 100 marks. Therefore to calculate the “marks”, candidates will be awarded marks out of the 100 numbers.

You can calculate marks as per number of correct and incorrect answers that you observe in your GATE 2021 response sheet, versus the GATE 2021 answer key. Use the marking scheme to get your “Marks”

GATE 2021 Normalized Marks

This step is only for Civil Engineering, Computer Science, and Mechanical Engineering candidates. This is because you had papers in multiple days and shifts. For you, your marks will undergo normalization as the following formula.

After obtaining the marks, the authority will derive a normalization process  to give the score. The normalization process will run on a basic formula derived by the authority.

GATE 2021 Score

And finally, you will get score. The score will be awarded out of 1000 marks. This will be as per the following formula.

GATE 2021 Rank

And finally, the rank will be awarded based on your score, in comparison to scores of other candidates. The AIR (All India Rank) is a rank which is awarded to the candidates as per their marks obtained in the GATE exam. On the basis of this rank, the candidates can get the further admission in the M.Tech colleges.

GATE 2021 Marks vs Score vs Rank

The actual data on what rank will be derived for what score, at what marks, will be available after GATE 2021 result is announced. However right now we can give you the data of past years to help you understand the marks vs score vs rank details.

Note – The below data is of past years. It is only to help you get an idea of ranks in respect to marks and scores.
