electronic and telecommunication AND electronic and communication are not same

you can give

I am a Electronics and Biomedical engineering B Tech student under cusat kerala. Can i write GATE 2013 Exam ? Then What will bd the sylabus for gATE ? Is it same sylabus for ECE ? Pl give direction .

Mano said...

You can appear GATE 2013 ece stream. it is same sylabus for ECE

Anonymous said...

sir, plzzzzz tell us about the electro. & telecommunication branch syllabus.

Anonymous said...

gate electronics and telecommunication branch syllabus is also same as gate electronics and communication branch syllabus

Unknown said...

I hv done B.tech In AEI wheather I M eligible to give Gate under another optional subject i.e. EC

manish said...

i want to know that the syllabus which u give are better to crack the exam.and are all the question is come from syllabus topic. or i also study more than syllabus

ABHISHEK SINGH said...

which engg. branch will be best for gate
ECE or CSE
