One has to appear for the BITSAT examination just like JEE in which you get a branch according to your score. Admission is also done by DASA and board toopers. One must have secured more than 75 per cent in 12 boards. There are no reservations in BITS. One can find the application form on the BITS site. BITSAT is a good exam but I want them to introduce a Percentile system like JEE mains.
I took BITSAT for admission to BITS. The admission process consists of us filling out a preference sheet involving all the branches and the order in which priority we have to set. After that, approximately 7 iterations occur. In the 4th iteration you have to report to the campus alloted to you. If in the next iteration campus changes, you will have to report to the next campus before a set amount of time. The cut-off is in the website of BITS. The application form fee was approximately 2500 for me. No reservation benefits are given. I would like to change this process of reporting to different campuses after different iterations. We should only report after the final iteration.
All the students who passed their class 12th are eligible to sit in this exam. Although students can take this exam after a year gap (after completing class 12) also. To get into any of the 3 Bits campuses in India, you need to clear BITSAT which is the admission test. The level of the exam is simple, although no. of questions is comparatively more as compared to JEE. The exam fee is around 3400 for boys and 2800 for girls. There is no reservation provided by the college in terms of caste and income.
The entrance exam was BITSAT and it is scoring overall if time management is done wisely. To be eligible you must have be matriculated pass and physics, chemistry and maths as the main subjects in your intermediate for most of the courses and for B. Pharma. course you must have biology as your subject apart from physics and chemistry. BITSAT application will be available on the Bits admission website one or two months before the exam the most important thing there is no reservation policy in BITS and this is one of the best parts of any institution. BITS admission is very robust and sophisticated sometimes as it comes in iterations that prevail after the campus opening for the freshers which I think need to be analysed and should be refined. There is an application fess which in my case was three thousand rupees and has increased over the subsequent years. The applicant should have a minimum of 75% in intermediate and 60% in each of the subjects PCM/B to take admission.
I took the Bitsat exam and scored 301 marks, and I was eligible for this course. You can apply on the Bitsat website, and find all the required fees and application details there. No benefits are availed. No improvement is needed.
