Hi guys I am in 3rd year right now and have secured a good GATE AIR < 100, will be joining for Mtech CSE in 2027.

I have 2 back(both in MCAT, forgot to give once and other time my browser glitched) and a 8.57 cgpa, will this affect my chances for placement?(I have cleared 1 back and got A+ grade in that, the other one I will clear in next year)

Or am I good.

Or can I collect more backs? : )

(the backs are not me just being lazy, I had some personal/family issues which lasted from 1st - 3rd year, but I dont want to explain that to an interviewer.)

I am in 3rd year right now and 2 weeks ago I received my GATE exam result, I am in top 0.4%ile which is very good, but....

But since I was very locked in my GATE prep I did not apply for any internships. I thought you apply for an internship and next month you are at work, I am completely dumbfounded right now bec now I realize that you have to apply almost 8 months to 1 year in advance.

In 3 months I will be in 4th year.

Is there any hope I can get a good Internship now?
