BITS Pilani - Birla Institute of Technology and Science

Hi Shrushti,
For JEE, start with building your foundation with NCERT Books. After that, you can study these reference books like for Chemistry, you can go for O. P Tandon, P. W. Atkins, Morrison & Boyd. For Physics you can read H. C. Verma, Resnick Halliday & Walker, Irodov. For maths study R. D. Sharma, S. L. Loney, TMH Complete Mathematics etc. You can use these books for your BITSAT preparations also, but make sure you register for BITSAT as well as JEE test series. Taking up mocks are good but only when you are analyzing them past giving. Do take care of this. Best Wishes for your preparations.

Hi Aafaq,
I am sorry to say but at the BITSAT score you have mentioned, you won't get any course at any campus of BITS Pilani. Don't lose hope, I would suggest you to prepare once again thoroughly and appear for BITSAT in the next year. Crack BITSAT with a good score (350+) and get admission in this beautiful campus.
Best Wishes

Hi Sourabh,
All the top 5 IITs (Bombay, Delhi, Madras, Kanpur, Kharagpur) are having an excellent campus and are at par with BITS Pilani in terms of academics, pedagogy and infrastructure. However, IITs have a more favourable and desirable atmosphere for research in the field of CSE. At BITS, you may not get that sort of environment of research. But, when it comes to freedom, flexibility and exposure, BITS does have an upper edge. At BITS, you get more exposure and chance of enhancing your knowledge in diverse directions. Otherwise, both BITS and IITs are at par with each other. Take your decision accordingly.
All the best.

Hi Manoj,
You are eligible to appear for BITSAT provided your overall aggregate marks in the intermediate (+2) are equal to or above 75%.
Best wishes for your preparation.

Hi Sunjol,
BITS Pilani CSE is better any day than VIT CSE. BITS Pilani CSE is on par with certain top IITs. However, VIT is way below in that range. No doubt, VIT is also a good college to pursue engineering, but when it comes to CSE, BITS Pilani is the place to be.
Best Wishes.

Hi Mukul,
BITS Pilani (Management Department) as a college doesn't assure you any kind of guarantee of giving jobs. However, there you will get ample opportunities to develop your knowledge and skill-sets that are required in the management field of the corporate world. There will be many instances and occasions where you can showcase your talent and get offers of job. Therefore, it depends upon the skill-sets of an individual to get a job opportunity or not.
Best wishes.

Hi Sameer,
There is only one other way of getting admission in BITS Pilani if you are not appearing in BITSAT i.e. you need to be a board topper in the intermediate (+2) examination.
Best wishes.

Hi, in my opinion, the right order is:
BIT Mesra
IIEST Shibpur
NIT Bhopal
NIT Kurukshetra
Jadavpur University
NIT Durgapur
Though the rankings keep on varying. So decide accordingly.

Hi Ram,
It's a bit difficult to get CSE at any of the campuses of BITS at the score you have mentioned. But, you can try for other engineering courses at any of the campuses of BITS Pilani. You can have a look at this link for getting more clarity on the cutoff scores: http://bitsadmission.com/cutoffscores2017.aspx
Also, your child can do one thing- He/she can take admission in Integrated First Degree Course at Pilani campus, and if your ward performs well in the semester examination and brings more than 8.5 CGPA, he/she can transfer into CSE course.
Best wishes.
