BITSAT exam pattern 2025
The BITSAT 2025 examination consists of 130 multiple-choice questions (MCQs) to be answered within a duration of three hours (180 minutes).
The paper is divided into four sections: Physics, Chemistry, English Proficiency & Logical Reasoning, and Mathematics or Biology (depending on the candidate’s chosen course stream). There is no sectional time limit, giving candidates the flexibility to manage their time across all sections according to their strengths and strategy.
The distribution of questions is as follows: 30 questions from Physics, 30 from Chemistry, 10 from English Proficiency, 20 from Logical Reasoning, and 40 questions from either Mathematics or Biology.
The marking scheme awards 3 marks for each correct response, deducts 1 mark for every incorrect answer, and gives no marks for unanswered questions. Understanding this pattern is crucial for effective preparation and time management during the exam.
The exam consists of four parts, comprising a total of 130 questions to be completed within 3 hours, without any breaks.
Part I consists of 30 questions from Physics, followed by Part II with 30 questions from Chemistry. Part III is divided into two sections: English Proficiency with 10 questions and Logical Reasoning with 20 questions. Part IV includes 40 questions from either Mathematics (for all BE, MSc, and BPharm programmes) or Biology (for BPharm and BE Environmental and Sustainability Engineering programmes), depending on the candidate's chosen course.
