By: Yash Singhal

BITSAT is a common admission test for admission in different courses in these campuses. Since the college is so good, thus the competition as well. So, how to prepare for this exam in order to get good marks and the desired campus for engineering with the desired branch?

BITS, one of the best colleges in India and the only private college to get Institute of Eminence tag. BITS mainly has 3 campuses in India in Pilani, Hyderabad and Goa. BITSAT is not as tough as it is considered by the society. Yes, the questions might sometimes be tricky but one can easily solve these questions if his/her concepts are clear for each and every topic of the syllabus. Firstly, clear your concepts. For that, you can study/revise the whole syllabus thoroughly.

Apart from the main core subjects of engineering, you also have to focus on English and logical reasoning (LR). A total of 15 questions are there from these 2 topics. This can drastically change your rank and your chances of getting into the top campus with the desired branch. So try to solve these questions regularly. These are the main topics that will support your score and your rank as well.

At the end, the most important thing that you have to do is to practice mock tests. Practice as many as you can, if not then try to solve atleast 2-3 tests per day, as this is the only way to boost up your speed and confidence. While appearing for the mocks, analyse the mistakes that you commit and try to avoid those in the upcoming tests.

While appearing for the mock tests, you will come to know the scoring topics of the exam. Every year, there is a slight change in the exam pattern, but according to the last year’s paper, the most scoring topic in physics is mechanics, in chemistry it is organic and physical chemistry and in maths, it is algebra. About 50% of the paper is from these topics only. If you master these by practicing in the last month, then you might get the Pilani campus.

In the last week of the month, solve last 5 years’ question papers. You will find that some of the questions are similar. This will give you a competitive edge in the exam, which will result in enhanced time which you can use to solve more and more questions.

After all, hard work might not pay off but smart work always does. Follow the above discussed tips and tricks to get good marks by preparing in the last month.
