The difficulty level of the BITS HD 2025 exam ranges from moderate to demanding. The questions will be selected randomly from a large question bank. Different candidates will get different question sets. The expert committe ensures that the toughness level of the question paper is evenly distributed. Therefore, it is recommended that students familarise themselves with the specified syllabis in order to adequately prepare for the exam. Compared to the GATE exam, the BITS HD exam is much easier. 

Birla Institute of Technical Science will release the BITS HD 2026 admit card online on its official website. Candidates must carry their hall ticket with a valid ID proof and calculator (without any connectivity or programmable feature). Rough sheet will be provided inside exam hall. 

It is always advisable to study the complete syllabus for BITS HD 2025 preparations.
