BITS Pilani - Birla Institute of Technology and Science Answered Questions

Dear Satvik,
No, this college doesn't provide lateral entry. You can give exam of LEET conducted by each state every year for example in Uttarakhand exam name is UKSEE & same there is one exam in Uttar Pradesh & in Delhi region Indraprasth university conduct every year. Moreover, there are lots of university which conducts own exam.

I am not a BITS student but I know about that college a little. BITS is a very reputed institute. Their average package offering is around 8.5 LPA for a fee of 6 LPA. So, obviously most of the 75-85 percentile scorers in CAT will target this institute as there are less options than this. So, probably their cutoff will be above 75%. This is my analysis.

The environment is without doubt one of the best. You will find across the country that there are people from all across the country, a diversity of people. A plus point of BITS being in remote area is that people bond together well, your friends will be like a second family to you. A lot of freedom is provided but ofcourse with it comes a lot of responsibility. There are a lot of clubs and departments, in which you can interact with people and actually explore, which forms an integral part of BITS life. You are given a task and an opportunity to prove yourself. Mess food isn't the best but as a compensation there are other restaurants and places like cannaught, ANC (all night canteen), redis, etc. Professors here are experienced and interactive. One of the advantages of bits is the flexibility that it provides in its academic system. Also you get to decide your timetable and teachers here. Though the climate here reaches both the extremes (0 C in winters and 45+ C in summers) but as a whole, it's completely a different experience.
