See percentile is a relative one and it depends on the no of students writing the exam , so it is not a metric . If the no of sudents appeared are more than even if u perform bad also your percentile will be high . So rank is the metric u have to keep in mind . Your aim should be to get a Rank below 100 then u will be in the safe side getting a direct admission in IIT free from all tension . Even if u could not get a rank below 100 for some reason on the day of writing exam don't worry , try to get at least 99%ile . The IIT people think that all the top 1% engineers have equal caliber only due to some reason on that day there was a mishap . So u will be called for the written test and interview there u can prove your metal . Don't worry there are many options like BARC , DRDO , recently KRESIT ( IT branch ) at IIT bombay which has almost 100 seats calls for written test and interview to all the students who got above 94%ile and above , NTPC , BEL , BHEL , HAL , TIFR , ISRO , SAIL etc as well .
coming to written test , it would also be in a similar format as your GATE i.e , objective questions and you need not prepare something more for this but you need to refresh your memory because there is almost a gap of 3 months between your GATE exam and these written tests . Normally it is the case that if you are in the top 10 among the students writing the written test conducted , it means you will get a direct admission with just a formal interview . coming to interview , you would be asked mostly your choice of subject from any of the core subjects like TOC , Databases , compilers , Operating systems , Data structures and Algorithms , Networks .
*** The story is something different when comes to the case of IISc . There are four branches computer science , Internet sciences ( no difference between them as far as i know ) , system science and automation , SERC ( super computer education and research center ) .
Let me tell you an incident sometime back a student was asked in the interview " what do you know ? " , the student answered " Sir , i know mathematics only " , the Professor was all praise for the student and was given admission after a formal interview . The reason behind telling you this incident is that , i want to emphasize the importance given to mathematics at IISc . I promise you if you are good at mathematics there are high chances of getting admission into IISc even if your GATE percentile is less .A student good at mathematics means its a big boon to him which would help him a lot to grow professionally in this computer science field that is what i can say .
