an option of attempting 12 (twelve) extra questions, if there is still time left. These extra questions
will be from Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics/Biology and Logical reasoning only; three questions
from each of them. Further, once the candidate has opted for extra questions, he/she cannot go
back for correction of any of the earlier answered 130 questions.

BITS Pilani Exam Pattern for BTech: BITSAT marks distribution

All questions asked in the BITSAT exam will be of objective type (multiple choice). Each question has a
choice of four answers, only one being the correct choice. As per BITSAT marking scheme Each
correct answer fetches 3 marks. As per BITSAT negative marking, each incorrect answer has a penalty
of 1 mark (-1 mark). No marks are awarded for questions not attempted. While the candidate can
skip a question, the computer will not allow the candidate to choose more than one option as the
correct answer.

BITSAT Exam Pattern 2024 - Highlights

• There will be no time limit for individual parts of the BITSAT exam. The candidate can go back and
change any of his/her answers among the 130 questions.

• The questions asked in the BITSAT paper will be designed in a way that a good student will be able
to answer 130 questions in 180 minutes. The extra questions (a maximum of 12) will give a chance
to highly meritorious candidates to score higher. However, candidates should keep in mind the
fact that there is a negative marking for wrong answers and any attempt to answer the questions
by purely guessing of the answers is not likely to have any advantage but may result in a reduction
in the total score.
