I have done a BTech in ECE and an MBA in Operations Management. I have qualified UGC-NET in labour laws and HRM and wanted to pursue PhD in OBHRM area in IITs and IIMs. Can I give GATE XH in psychology for the same purpose?

Hello,

Yes, you can appear for GATE XH (Humanities & Social Sciences) in Psychology if the institute you are applying to accepts GATE XH scores for PhD admissions in Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management (OBHRM) .

However, most IITs and IIMs prefer CAT, GMAT, GRE, UGC-NET/JRF or their own entrance tests for PhD admissions in OBHRM. Some IITs might accept GATE scores , but it’s best to check the specific admission requirements of the IITs/IIMs where you want to apply.

Hope it helps !
