The Bachelor of Engineering in Chemical Engineering at BITS is known for its competitive admission process primarily based on the BITSAT exam, a 390-mark test with a +3/-1 marking scheme including a section for logical thinking and English. For Indian students, the sole entrance pathway is the BITSAT, while international students may apply through SAT scores. BITS has no reservation policy, and admissions are strictly merit-based. The eligibility criteria require a minimum of 75% aggregate in PCM in Class 12, with at least 60 marks in each subject.

Recent trends indicate that cutoffs have significantly increased, with the 2023 cutoff rising by around 50 marks for some of the lower branches. Although the cutoff marks for Chemical Engineering saw a hike, successful candidates have scored around 220. The admission process, conducted through the BITS official website, is smooth but competitive due to the absence of direct or management quota admissions. Post-registration, campus allotment adjustments based on cutoffs continue for approximately 15 days.

The BITS curriculum is renowned for its flexibility, earning the institute a strong reputation for placements, vibrant campus culture, and a rigorous academic environment without the pressure of attendance mandates. This distinctive approach, alongside a strong global alumni network, positions BITS as a preferred choice over various IITs, NITs, and other institutions.

bits and pieces of BITS goa

I applied to Thapar College of Engineering as well, but I chose BITS Goa over it because BITS had better placements, better infrastructure and also promised a better environment because of its various active clubs, societies and departments. The admission process of BITS included giving an exam called BITSAT. It was like JEE mains but more on the easier side and had a section of logical thinking and English. It was 390-mark exam.

BITS Pilani, Goa Campus- A road to an interesting life.

Student Snaps:

I applied to IITs, NITs, GFTIs and VIT apart from BITS. I got confirmed admission into VIT while the process for other colleges was ongoing. I withdrew from the process of other as soon as I got into BITS. I also withdrew my application from VIT. I chose this college over other colleges is because BITS is known for its excellence and great alumni network . It also has one of the most successful statistics of placements over other private colleges. The admission to BITS is done through BITSAT. It takes place every year along with Jee Mains and Jee Advance . The cutoffs vary every year for the courses and can be easily found on Google. This exam is of high eminence and is held high in place along with the JEE exams. After scoring well, the course selection and campus selection process is done through BITS's own portal and is solely based on the marks you score in BITSAT.

Bits Pilani K.K Birla Goa Campus Review

My personal preference to join this college as a freshmen was to be among the peer group that wanted innovation and ideas hovering around for my own betterment and a safe future. Also i was only getting the third generation IITs which i didn't prefer even till today to join and advise the same to everyone. I invested in myself. For admission in this college you need to score well in BITSAT or else, you need to be state board topper. Many will think that rejecting third generation iits and taking this might cost me alot later, but prefer investing in myslef which was required, because the new genaration iits or even nits would not have offered me what i am getting today, a healthy and innovative environment, a promising placement, robust alumni connection & much more. Now talking about other colleges i applied to, i also applied to other private colleges around the country apart from from iits, nits, & iiits but still chose to prefer bits because it was the only private college that had the potential to compete with the first generation iits. I got rejected from many first gen iits as i was not that well scored when it comes to their criterion selection, and being from general category, i didn't had the unsaid advantage of getting selected into top iits or iiits as i prefered.

ZERO RESERVATION POLICY: Admissions are given only on merit basis.

Why BITS over other colleges: No reservation policy and pure merit based admission Better campus life and less Pressure than IIT/NITs Fully flexible curriculum Global alumni network and strong placements No attendance policy JEE advanced is highly needed and requires in depth understanding of the subject even though your speed is a bit low and your whole syllabus is not covered BITSAT requires overall syllabus to be covered and high speed because the number of questions are more.

BITS Pilani is a reputed college and is a disciplined place. While the other colleges were infamous for either the discipline or the infrastructure. My college provides hostel services to all students and there are no day scholars. There is a zero attendance policy here at BITS.
