No, usually GATE scores are required by IIST (Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology) to get into the M.Tech Aerospace program, though this might vary according to some criteria set by the institute. Sometimes, candidates who have passed a B.Tech in an appropriate branch with good grades are taken on direct interviews or through other selection processes, but that happens rarely. One must frequently check the IIST website or the admissions office for information about the current requirements and any exceptions to those requirements.
