BITS Pilani - Birla Institute of Technology and Science

Getting into BITS requires you to write BITSAT comprising of 150 questions of physics, chemistry, maths, English and logical reasoning to be solved in 3 hours. You need to have 75% aggregate in PCM to write this test. BITS is obviously good as it stands out to be 5th best engineering college in India including IITs.

It is somewhat around 4.5 lacs for your batch (2018-2022). The average placement for CS is around 18 lacs per annum.
Best wishes.

BITS ranks 5th best engineering college all over India including IITs. The best branch is computer science with the recruiters like Google and Microsoft. The average package is around 18 lacs for CS.
All the best.

12th marks are only required for being eligible to give the entrance tests of the institutes. For BITS, it is aggregate 75 % in physics, chemistry, and maths with 60 % and above in each subject. But for a general perspective, a higher percentage in 12th certainly enhances your opportunities and chances throughout your career.

If you can write about the course you are interested in, it would be easier to answer your query.

BITS-Pilani would be the better choice if the interest of engineering discipline is towards computer science/ electronics as it has got stupendous placements in these domains. However, this doesn't imply that NIT-Surathkal has a poor placement record in CS/EC. Its just that, BITS has got an upper edge in these domains than NIT-S. If you want to go for core branches like Civil/Mech., go for NIT-S. The campus life of BITS is awesome whereas NIT-S has its own beach where students can tranquilize. Both the institutions are good and have their own pros and cons. I suggest you to select one as per your branch and preferences.
All the best!

BITS is any day better than VIT for any specialization. The pedagogy, infrastructure, and placements are far better than VIT. Plus, the campus life you get at BITS Pilani is amazing and unmatched. So, I would suggest you to go to BITS!

It depends on the career prospects that one has attained. Still, going on the statistics, CSE students get higher salary package.

You need to score at least 385 to get admission in BITS, Pilani for CS.
For JEE, textbooks are extremely important.
Physics- Cengage Publications (The best with strong concept development and solved examples explained very well) and H.C. Verma
Mathematics- Tata Mc Grew Hill
Chemistry- OP Tondon and RC Mukerjee
I am attaching a link of JEE Books that you will find beneficial if you want separate specialized books on each topic:
