Is 260 a good score in BITSAT?

A BITSAT score of 260 is deemed competitive, but it varies based on the campus and the program you wish to pursue. Based on trends from previous years, the cutoff for popular branches like Computer Science at BITS Pilani was about 380-400 in 2024, while for less preferred courses like Civil Engineering, it was around 270-280. At BITS Goa and BITS Hyderabad, the cutoff marks for areas like Mechanical and Electrical Engineering varied between 270 and 290. Consequently, a score of 260 might be adequate for some branches, especially at BITS Goa or BITS Hyderabad, but could be insufficient for the top branches at Pilani.

Is BITSAT Based on NCERT?

BITSAT is not solely based on NCERT, but many questions originate from NCERT topics, especially in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Analysis from previous years indicates that roughly 70-80% of the questions originate from NCERT, while the other 20-30% are more challenging and necessitate further study.

Therefore, NCERT assists you in establishing a fundamental base for various subjects. Nonetheless, additional books, test series, and various reference materials are required to address the questions more efficiently.
