Questions related to BITSAT
Hi, Im a 12th grade student currently preparing for BITSAT and MET but I wont be giving JEE and havent attended any coaching for competitive exams. Since when should i start revising my 11th syllabus and how much time should i give it.
Hello Aspirant,
As you studying in 12th , I would suggest that if you are giving BITSAT then focus on 11th and 12th equally and before 2 months of the conduction of the examination you should start revising the syllabus for 11th and for MET I would suggest that focus more on the 12th syllabus because the level of the questions would be on a easier level than BITSAT.
Although BITSAT is also easy but the thing is for BITSAT you need speed and accuracy to answer your paper.
