- Besides, it has been found that the institute often misleads students about the placement stats they have established over time. It is one reason why several GATE rankers get lured in for admission purposes.
- The degree you receive will unfortunately not be having a vital demand industrially. These institutes often also maintain a high fee structure and simultaneously employ low-quality faculty members. It is one of the major drawbacks the institute is part of.
- Sometimes, several fresh graduates find it essentially hard to secure jobs worth 10,000 to 15,000 per month.
This whole scenario has resulted in untimed deception for GATE aspirants.
