Differentiate between GATE life science and GATE biotechnology.Who would choose both ,also list out the subjects in both papers and it's syllabus
Hi,
GATE Life Sciences (XL)
covers broader biology topics like Botany, Zoology, Microbiology, etc., ideal for research and teaching roles.
GATE Biotechnology (BT)
is more technical, focusing on genetic engineering, bioprocessing, and industrial biotech—best for biotech careers.
Choose XL if you’re from general life sciences; choose BT if you studied biotechnology or related fields.
Hope this helps!
