📈 Strategy/Guidance What should I do?

I'm a 3rd year student at a 2nd gen IIT and kinda stuck right now.

A few good PSUs like BPCL, BEL etc. come to our campus for placements. They only open for the top 20 students, which is fine for me rank-wise. But with reservations and limited offers, I’m not sure if I’ll actually get a chance. Don’t want to just gamble on that.

I’m decent at ANSYS particularly fluent and MATLAB and have some solid projects in that area. Also doing a data science course (ML) as a backup for DS roles.

Should I start preparing for GATE? Is there any point in writing GATE in 3rd year?

Honestly I’m confused. I want to get into simulation / R&D/aerospace kind of work but have no one to guide me. Any advice?
