GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering)

</span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is an all-India 
examination administered and conducted jointly by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Institute_of_Science" target="_blank">Indian Institute of Science</a> and seven <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Institutes_of_Technology" target="_blank">Indian Institutes of Technology</a> on behalf of the 
National Coordinating Board - GATE, Department of Education, Ministry of
 Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India. The GATE 
committee, which comprises of representatives from the administering 
institutes, is the sole authority for regulating the examination and 
declaring the results. <br />These technical institutes take turns to conduct the examination each 
year. The GATE examination for the year 2013 is conducted by IIT, 
Bombay. The variation in rules for the examination is finalized by the 
conducting institute. There are changes every year in this regard which 
is good as for one, it prevents the system being redundant and second, 
it caters to a broad spectrum of candidates. The aim of any alteration 
introduced in comparison to the previous years is that it suits the 
changing dynamic environment and favors more people.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Students can browse to any <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Institutes_of_Technology" target="_blank">IIT</a> site and they will get all the required info regarding the exam. Mainly the exam is the kind of entrance exam for getting admitted into various postgraduate courses like M Tech,M.S. M.Des, PhD in IITs and IISc Bangalore though  most of the other prestigious colleges including NITs and IIITs  make use of GATE in anyway  to enroll students in their various programmes .</span></span><br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Financial Assistance</span></span></h2>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">A valid GATE score is essential for obtaining a financial assistance
 during Masters programmes and in some cases during direct Doctoral 
programmes in Engineering/Technology/Architechture, and Doctoral 
programs in relevant branches of Science in an Institution supported by 
the MHRD or other Government organizations.  To avail the financial 
assistance (scholarship), the candidate must first secure admission to a
 programme in these Institutes, by a procedure that could be different 
for each institute.  Qualification in GATE is also a minimum requirement
 to apply for various fellowships awarded by many Government 
organizations.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">However, candidates with a Master’s degree in 
Engineering/Technology/Architecture may seek admission to relevant 
Doctoral programmes with scholarship/assistantship without appearing in 
the GATE examination.</span></span><br />

<a href="http://www.counsellingbyabhi.com/2012/11/list-of-top-20-engineering-colleges-for.html" target="_blank">SEE ALSO : Top colleges for MTech in India</a></h2>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">GATE is no more just Entrance Exam. </span></span></h4>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Gate is not just entrance exam to take admission into various postgraduate exams any more.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Many of the public sector companies namely NTPC,IOCL,BHEL,HPCL,DDA,NALCO,BARC,GAIL and many others,have started to accept GATE score as the qualifying exam to get through their recruitment process.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Global Exposure </span></span></h4>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Not just  top indian institutes,some foreign universities also accept GATE score for their postgraduate programmes. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_University_of_Singapore" target="_blank">National University of Singapore (NUS)</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanyang_Technological_University" target="_blank">Nanyang Technological University Singapore </a>are such two universities based in singapore.Both of the universities are among the top 25 technical universities of the world,even above IITs. Some European universities namely German TUM & RWTH also accept GATE score card for some of their programmes.  </span></span></div>

iPhone 5 or Galaxy S3

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The smartphone battle increasingly comes down to Apple versus Samsung – but with two top-rated phones currently available, which is best for you?</span></h4>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While Samsung S3 is claimed to be the best smartphone available on the planet, Apple iPhone 5 needs no words to boast its quality.Lets have some fair comparison between the two:</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUiiZpPw_xhmWW9IUsut-zzVuDz_Bw9kxbPDCYsWFE4q2tOLxBk8lg4p4xalwkYX0dUYHoDEZhYLks3M9UkyjrnAmrqE87hTaLb5v6pb9i42rxkiCeGweIk9knMNrHutR0ZJhnMWQCeo77/s1600/iphone-galaxy_2426969b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUiiZpPw_xhmWW9IUsut-zzVuDz_Bw9kxbPDCYsWFE4q2tOLxBk8lg4p4xalwkYX0dUYHoDEZhYLks3M9UkyjrnAmrqE87hTaLb5v6pb9i42rxkiCeGweIk9knMNrHutR0ZJhnMWQCeo77/s1600/iphone-galaxy_2426969b.jpg" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Both Apple and Samsung S3 uses different operating system. Apple uses its own iOS while Samsung S3 makes use of Google's Android Operating system. To have a fair comparison between the two devices we also must have a look over the capabilities of both operating systems.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div class="firstPar" style="background-color: white; color: #282828;">
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Android v iOS</b><br />Samsung uses Google’s Android operating system; Apple uses its own iOS. They look very different, with Apple’s iPhone dominated by the now familiar grid of icons for apps and functions such as the web and calls. Android is infinitely customisable, with widgets that take up as much of the screen as you want sharing space with standard icons. So if you want to see your inbox on a main screen, rather than clicking through to it, you can do that on Android but not on iOS.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="secondPar" style="background-color: white; color: #282828;">
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Equally, however, if you want a neat and friendly grid of icons on every screen, then the iPhone will do it for you with very little hassle. Both will let you put apps into folders to make things easier to navigate.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="thirdPar" style="background-color: white; color: #282828;">
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the heart of the iOS v Android debate is the idea of a highly curated experience, iOS, where everything must match up to Apple’s strict rules, or Google’s approach which is open and different on each handset. Samsung is aware that that can make Android seem unfriendly to new users, so there is an easy screen mode which presents users with standard options, and the default is to a mixture of icons and widgets for, say, news and weather. It’s added features such as ‘Direct Call’ which mean you can phone someone automatically by lifting the device to your ear if you’re looking at their contact details.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="fourthPar" style="background-color: white;">
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="color: #282828; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 1.48em;">Besides the look and feel, however, Android and iOS differ in what software developers are allowed to build to enhance your phone. Baked in to the S3 is Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube and other standard Google features such as Google Now, which aims to second-guess what you want to know and suggest it before </span><span style="line-height: 23.66666603088379px;">you've</span><span style="line-height: 1.48em;"> actually searched the web for it. Think flight delays if you’ve previously searched for a flight. Apple prefers to let developers add features such as that, and its most recent foray into doing such things for itself with Maps was a disaster.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #282828; line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
</div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hardware</span></b></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #282828;"><span style="line-height: 1.48em;">Now comes the hardware</span><span style="line-height: 1.48em;">. i</span><span style="line-height: 23.66666603088379px;">Phone 5</span><span style="line-height: 1.48em;"> looks more premium product than anyone else in the same category,though Samsung S3 gives it tough battle by its </span><span style="line-height: 23.66666603088379px;">re configurable</span><span style="line-height: 1.48em;"> hardware features.</span></span><br /><span style="color: #282828;"><span style="line-height: 1.48em;">It would be easy to say that the iPhone 5 is made of glass and aluminium, the S3 is largely plastic, and so one feels far more like a premium product than the other. But that would be a harsh, black and white view. The S3’s 4.8” screen defines the device, making it feel large and luxurious; the iPhone’s 4” equivalent is much more rectangular, and while both look lovely, they also look different.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="color: #282828; line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It’s worth pointing out too that the S3 can be upgraded with removable memory cards and for wireless charging, while the iPhone is what it is.</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="color: #282828; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 1.48em;">The S3 weighs 133g to the iPhone’s 116g; the difference is noticeable but insignificant. The iPhone processor is dual core while the S3’s is quad core, but the difference </span><span style="line-height: 23.66666603088379px;">isn't</span><span style="line-height: 1.48em;"> noticeable. In terms of battery life, both, in my experience, last a similar period of time but the iPhone is often just ahead. Both, thankfully, now get accessories that combine a sleeve with a built-in extra battery.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #282828; line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Both record in HD, Apple’s Siri voice assistant is less imperfect than Samsung’s S Voice. The S3 also has features such as ‘Smart Stay’, which aim to keep the screen on when the front-facing camera detects you’re looking at it. It works, most of the time. 4G versions of both are available.</span></div>
<div style="color: #282828; line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All in all, however, the S3 and the iPhone mimic their operating systems: the iPhone is neat, contained and elegant, perfectly formed while the S3 has more options that leave things open to consumers. You could argue that makes the S3 either harder work or more rewarding.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The App war</span></b></div>
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The main thing which matters is the fuel of the device that is the available apps for the devices.<br />By general consensus, the iOS app store is slightly larger than the Android Play Store, but it’s quality rather than quantity that matters. For now, on that measure, iOS is still winning but Android is catching up. So if you want, for instance to download Jamie Oliver’s latest app, it’s in both stores. If you need to instantly access bus timetables, they’re in both too. The really luxurious applications that are popular on the iPad, such as The Orchestra, are missing from Android but that’s less of an issue on phones.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">More functional things, such as banking apps, are increasingly available equally on both, and Google’s class leading maps software is finally on both platforms too.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Price</span></b></div>
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Price is a big factor.On current UK contracts, you can easily pick up an S3 free at <b>£26 per month</b> and an iPhone 5 for <b>£36 per month</b>, plus £25 up front. Both deals are via Carphone Warehouse on a two-year contract. Network prices vary, but the differential remains; free phones for both on Vodafone, for instance, make the iPhone £10 per month more expensive.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Conclusion</b><br />The iPhone has become an icon, a totem among its fans. It’s not cheap, but those fans say you get what you pay for. Others argue the S3 does more for less money and offers far greater flexibility.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 1.48em; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is, however, no right answer. Many argue, too, that the iPhone is an easier device for users to start with as a smartphone. But the momentum, for now at least, seems to be with Android and Samsung’s S3 is its best advert.</span></div>

Money vs Happiness.

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<i><span style="line-height: 1.24;">If you had to choose between a job that made you happy doing what you loved</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> </span><span style="line-height: 1.24;">or</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> </span><span style="line-height: 1.24;">a job that paid more but made you unhappy which would you like to opt?</span></i></h4>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;">The answer would be different for different persons.Most of us will choose the first option and most of rest will choose the later one. But my take is that </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">before</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> going for any final decision we should think that why we need money?  Everyone wants to be happy in his/her life and that the reason one works so hard in life to get more and more money because it is the conception set in our mind that more money means more happiness.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;">Its true </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">up to</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> some extent also. Without money how would you be able to </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">fulfill</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> you basic needs , how would you ensure your children's future and there are many more basic things which requires money. Money and happiness have relationship of direct </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">proportionality</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> till all your basic needs gets </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">fulfilled</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;">. One should work hard enough also to achieve all this also.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;">But once all these needs are </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">fulfilled</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> then happiness does not remain dependent on the money any longer.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;">After that there are other things also, which will make you happy not just money. So my take is to lead a life having enough money ( not a lot of money) with comfort , entertainment and </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">time for</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> loved ones. I have been  in IT services for almost 2.5 years now and in IT your working hours are not </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">constrained</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> by the </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">company's</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> policies. You must be ready to work in the </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">stretched</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> hours as well. I have seen many </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">colleagues</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> of mine drawing very handsome salary but always keep on complaining about the work , about long hours office stay. They are really not 'happy'.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;"><br /></span>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXqwfJdiQbaaEZJVRPdLiPUPHuxs9Yb3k40pGBSPcga97h-mqiSoig92O7av4EUihM7dt_-A0TIe7m8t6UP-yBW3iTkFd2-OKJqRQuW1J5AoGlyD_IITx3GY0xBwXWGhQV3gPloicu1-jW/s1600/maxresdefault.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXqwfJdiQbaaEZJVRPdLiPUPHuxs9Yb3k40pGBSPcga97h-mqiSoig92O7av4EUihM7dt_-A0TIe7m8t6UP-yBW3iTkFd2-OKJqRQuW1J5AoGlyD_IITx3GY0xBwXWGhQV3gPloicu1-jW/s1600/maxresdefault.jpg" width="640" /></a><span style="line-height: 1.24;"></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 1.24;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;">Actually the thing is they will continue their same job </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">because</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> they know that their job is paying well to them. Generally we only see that how much money we are getting by this job. We seldom think how much comfort we will get by this job. One of the reason for </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">continuing</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> this practice is that we all are involved in an unseen hidden race. We always are in the race to show </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">our self</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;">  in the front row in terms of  prosperity , social and economic status before the society. We always </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">think</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> my </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">neighbor</span><span style="line-height: 1.24;"> has purchased a BMW 7 Series Car, How can I survive now with Honda City. We should avoid that. These things never bring happiness, they can only make you to feel proud if you manage to be ahead in the race but never can give you the real happiness.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 1.24;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 19px;">Its not that only I am saying this, this is the fact.</span><span style="line-height: 19px;"> </span><span style="line-height: 19px;">Recently, In a survey done in Cornell University, most of the students chose the job with higher salary with stretched working hours and high job pressure in comparison to a cool job but with lower compensation. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 19px;">What would be your choice in this scenario? </span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 19px;">My choice would be the second one. As I said earlier that once all the basic things are not an issue then we should move towards other things which really makes you happy. What's the meaning of having money if we have not time to spend it.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 19px;">Somewhere I read very beautiful lines,"<i><span style="color: red;">Don't be the slave of money, make money your slave</span></i>"</span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 19px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 19px;">Spend time with your friends, spend time with your parents, have time for your health, give time to your hobbies and do the stuffs which makes you happy. If you lead this kind of life , you will never be the victim of mental stress , a high proportion of the population  is affected with. After all, we are not money making machines,we are humans ,bestowed by God, with the ability to enjoy , to be happy and to make others happy.</span></div>
