Mano said...

@ Sweety Raj
You are not eligible since you are in third year of your engineering from next year ie gate 2014 onwards you are eligible to give the gate exam. It is based on your interest, if you are interested in research oriented jobs then MS is good otherwise do MTech.

@ Sneha
Choosing MS is good option for your career because it is research oriented course. You need to appear GATE exam next year ie when you are in your final year. actually coaching is not necessary unless you are not good in your basics. ACE and made easy are the good gate coaching centers in hyd

All the best!
