Yes, candidates who have appeared for the GATE/GPAT entrance exam must register and appear for the BITS HD application form. BITS Pilani admissions into the higher degree courses are based solely on the performance of a candidate in the BITS HD entrance exam. Applications for BITS HD can be submitted on the official website.

If you notice an error or discrepancy after submitting your GATE form, don't panic. Once the application correction window opens, log in via GOAPS using your credentials and make the corrections. Details like category, gender, exam city, paper choice, date of birth, etc., can often be edited — usually by paying a small correction fee. Misspellings or document mismatches may trigger a “defective” status, in which case you'll be notified and asked to rectify. If the window closes, contact the GATE zonal authorities immediately by email or phone — they sometimes allow case-by-case fixes.

The factors that determine the GATE cutoff are -
- Availability of seats (the total seat intake varies every year for NITs, IIITs, and IIT admission)
- Number of registered applicants
- The difficulty level of the examination - (GATE is conducted on multiple days, however, the paper difficulty varies for every session)
- Previous year cutoff trends
