M = Marks obtained by a candidate in a paper,
M
q = Qualifying marks for general category candidates in the paper,
M
t = Average Marks of top 0.1% or 10 (whichever is higher) of candidates in the paper,
S
t = GATE Score assigned to M
t (around 900), and
S
q = GATE Score assigned to M
q (around 300).
M
q is usually 25 marks (out of 100) or μ+σ, whichever is higher. Here μ is the mean of marks in a paper and σ is the standard deviation.
