No, objections cannot be raised after the declaration of GATE results. Candidates can only challenge provisional answer key. 

Of course, it is.  A Civil Engineering career is stable and high-paying, to be honest. You can get a job in Construction Firms, Defence Forces, Development Boards, Municipal Bodies, etc. 
This is an ever-growing field, and the construction never stops. Be it Bridges, dams, roads, Railways, aerodromes, ports, buildings, Sewage Treatment, and so on, one after another project keeps going.

After the declaration of GATE result, the qualified candidates will have to participate in counselling process. It must be noted that, IIT Guwahati does not conduct GATE counselling. 

Admission counselling is done by COAP and CCMT portals. 

• Common Offer Acceptance Portal (COAP) is the centralised portal for counselling used by IITs and IISc that allow GATE qualified candidates to view and accept choices for M.Tech or PSU jobs based on their scores. 

• On the other hand, CCMT (Centralised counselling for MTech/MArch/M.Plan) portal used for offering M.Tech admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs. 

Candidates who are appearing in their class 12 exam in 2026 need not provide their mark details while filling the JEE advanced application form. They just need to fill their year of passing class 12 year as 2026. However, they must ensure to score minimum 75% marks in order to be eligibile for admission in IITs.

To be honest, both fields are poles apart. So, it would be unfair to compare them. Their focus, curriculum, career prospects, working fields, everything is different.
