BITSAT 2014 Exam pattern:
BITSAT is an exclusively online entrance exam – there is no paper/pencil version of BITSAT. You have to appear the exam in one of the thirty two BITSAT test centres (including one abroad in BITS, Dubai). BITSAT is a Computer Based Test (CBT) but is not an Internet based online test, which means you can appear in the exam only at those test centres.
BITSAT is a 3 hour long exam with four paper sections of total 150 questions, 450 marks as below:
Each BITSAT question is of 3 marks and there is negative marking: -1 mark for each wrong answer. You can skip any question and come back later again to answer the same.
For very meritorious among you, BITSAT has bonus questions: if you can answer all 150 questions within time (i.e. without skipping any question), you can opt to go for 12 extra questions – four question each from Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, each question of 3 marks with negative 1 mark for wring answer.
But once you opt for bonus BITSAT questions, you can not go back and review those first 150 questions!
How much to score in BITSAT 2014 exam?
There are 2000 seats on offer (800:Pilani, 600:Goa & 600:Hyderabad). So your goal must be to stay within the top 2000 students. Which BITS institute or which stream would you get if your score is say “X”? Read in detail about it in my previous blog article titled:BITSAT 2010 Cut-off: Institute-wise/Stream-wise.
