I have scored 71% , 90% and 59% in PCM respectively from CBSE board. Am I eligible for BITSAT with this score? If not, plz tell whether I am eligible for BITSAT after giving improvement exam, does bits accept that score for admission?

Thank you for your inquiry regarding BITSAT eligibility.

To be considered for the Birla Institute of Technology and Science Admission Test (BITSAT), applicants must have completed their 12th grade from a recognized board, including Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, and must also demonstrate adequate proficiency in English.

Regarding marks: BITS requires a minimum aggregate of 75% in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM), and at least 60% individually in each of those three subjects.

Your current scores are as follows:

- Physics: 71%

- Chemistry: 90%

- Mathematics: 59%

- PCM Average: 73.3%

While your overall PCM average is close to the required threshold, the Mathematics score falls short of the individual subject minimum. As it stands, this renders you ineligible for BITSAT admission.

However, if you undertake the CBSE Improvement Exam and increase your Mathematics score to 60% or above, you would meet the eligibility requirements. BITS does accept improvement scores, provided you fulfill all eligibility criteria in your final attempt. Please ensure that:

- You sit for the improvement examination in the same year as your application (2025).

- Your final marksheet reflects the required scores in each subject, as well as the overall PCM aggregate.

It is also advisable to retain both your original and improved marksheets, as BITS will require the final, eligible result during the counselling and admission process.

Should you require guidance on selecting appropriate colleges or determining your next steps, a range of counselling tools and resources are available to assist you.

Wishing you success with your improvement exam and future applications.
