GITAM GAT PGTA 2026 Exam Pattern

What is reported and what remains unconfirmed

Permitted 2026 secondary coverage describes the postgraduate engineering test as an English-language computer-based MCQ examination lasting 150 minutes. It reports 100 questions: 40 in quantitative and logical reasoning and 60 in a subject-based section, with two marks for each correct answer. This numerical description is retained as secondary-reported information, not a fully reconciled current official scheme.

The university's general admissions FAQ gives a different B.Tech summary, and its reference application page includes inconsistent subject blocks and placeholder content. Those pages do not provide a clean confirmation of the complete postgraduate scheme. In particular, this review does not establish the current PG negative-marking rule, detailed branch syllabus or whether all programmes use the same subject section.

A candidate should request the applicable test instructions before using this table to build a final timed simulation. Preparation can continue meanwhile through degree fundamentals and reasoning practice. What should wait is a claim that a particular timing split, penalty or list of specialised topics is definitely the official 2026 paper.
