Test-2014
About
(BITS)-Pilani:
The
Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS) Pilani is an all India
Institution declared as Deemed to be University under Section 3 of the UGC Act.
This is also called BITSAT,
which is a Computer based online test for Admission to Integrated First Degree
Programmes of BITS Pilani Campuses in Pilani, Goa and Hyderabad. ‘Computer
Based Online test’ means the candidate sits in front of a computer and the
questions are presented on the computer monitor and the candidate answers the
questions on the computer through the use of keyboard or mouse. Each computer
is connected to a server, which prepares the question set and delivers it to
the candidate on the computer. This is unlike the traditional paper-pencil
based test. This test will be referred to as ‘BITS Admission Test–2014’ or
BITSAT-2014.

Pattern of BITSAT:
BITSAT is a Computer Based Online
Test. If a candidate answers all the 150 questions without skipping any
question, the candidate will have an option of attempting 12 extra questions (if
there is still time left). These extra questions will be from Physics,
Chemistry and Mathematics only; four questions from each part. Further, once
the candidate has opted for extra questions, he cannot go back for correction
of any of the earlier answered 150 questions. The questions are so designed
that a good student will be able to answer 150 questions in 180 minutes.
The extra questions will give a chance
to highly meritorious candidates to score higher. However, candidates should
keep in mind the fact that there is negative
marking for wrong answers. Candidates should bring a pen for the purpose of
rough work, signing etc. Blank sheets for rough work will be provided, if
required.
There is no time limit for individual
parts of the test. The candidate can go back and change any of his/her answers
among the 150 questions. While the candidate skips a question, the computer
will not allow the candidate to choose more than one option as correct answer.
The test consists of four parts.
The number of questions & marks in each part is as:
