BITS CSE Cutoff Trends for Past 5 Years (Pilani, Goa, Hyderabad)

BITSAT cutoffs provide the lowest score at which offers were made for each branch in the final round of counselling. Higher cutoffs mean more students compete for fewer seats. Students must note that the total marks have changed from 450 (until 2021) to 390 (from 2022 onwards). This means that the cutoffs before and after 2022 cannot be compared directly for analysis purposes. Although it still shows the trends for the competitive branches.
