With a **GATE 2024 score of 473 in Data Science & Artificial Intelligence**, getting into top old IITs is very tough because their cutoffs are usually **much higher (often 600‑700+)** for AI and related M.Tech programs. You may get chances at some **NIT / GFTI colleges like Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (AI/Data Science range ~466‑472 in recent rounds)** depending on category and counselling. Considering overall opportunities, placements, labs, and female scholarships, **LPU (Lovely Professional University) is a strong choice** for M.Tech in Data Science/AI with GATE score, as it offers direct admission, good curriculum, industry exposure, and support for female students.
