Well its not possible for you to apply GATE 2014 on basis of 57 %.
but if your universities will allow you to appear for final year exam just to increase your percentage this is the only thing you can do.
BUT it happens only in few universities with some "terms & conditions".
you should ask your university for this kind of arrangement to increase percentage.
hope this will help you.
best of luck.
