The four components of the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) are speaking, reading, and listening. There are four recordings in the listening phase, each followed by 10 questions. Three sections and 13-14 questions follow each in the reading part. Two activities make up the Writing portion, one of which calls for an essay of at least 250 words. You will be evaluated on criteria like pronunciation, grammar, and fluency during the speaking segment, which comprises a face-to-face interview with an examiner.

Please check the Reporting Time on your email. You should reach the centre 30 minutes early. Once the main GATE is closed, the security will not allow anyone to enter. You will lose your exam fee. So please check traffic and plan properly.

You must bring your Original Passport. This is mandatory. Please check that the passport number is same as what you used during registration. If you bring a photocopy or just a photo in mobile, you will not be allowed to sit for the exam. No other ID card like license or Aadhar is accepted.
