Should do, but it's easier just to try it. If you don't like it, you can switch desktops from the login screen.
One thing I noticed, 'gdm' appears to use gnome-shell, so if you have a system w/out accelerated graphics, your CPU will still be eaten by gnome-shell even if you log into MATE. I ended up removing gnome-shell (and gdm, etc) and then just start mate via startx from the equiv of runlevel 3. Thanks, Ben
