Should I join an NIT for M.Tech (CE) & prepare for ESE, etc. along with it or drop a year again and take coaching from a good institute?

I am 24 & finished B.Tech in 2015. Then I took coaching classes for a year but couldn't qualify GATE. Next year, I did self-study and got 45 marks, a score of 520 in GATE. On checking the notes, the notes I made & that of the Made Easy coaching are totally different. I don't want to drop again.

    Go for a reputed coaching institute for GATE preparations or best books instead of notes.

    Hello Shaifali,
    You are already engineering graduate. I feel you should go to a good coaching institute to pursue your passion of PG in NIT. Good coaching will enable you to clear entrance exam.
