Here are some of the advantages of 2 attempts for BITSAT 2026.
Candidates who choose to take both attempts get a chance to improve their scores.
The first session test can act as a guideline to test one’s preparation. However, one should remember that the first attempt is the best and hence work hard for it.
In case someone cannot do their best in the BITSAT session 1 due to unforeseen circumstances, will get ample time to plan out a proper study routine to score best in the second attempt.
The authority will consider only the best of both attempts. This will make candidates more confident and well-prepared.

On Question asked by student community
Since the student is in Aakash Institute for JEE prep, her prospects in JEE Mains, BITSAT, and Telangana EAMCET depend on factors like her consistency in mock tests, accuracy, syllabus coverage, and exam temperament. Aakash provides regular All India Test Series (AITS), which is the best way to benchmark her performance nationally scores above 200 in AITS usually indicate a strong JEE Mains rank (<50k), while 300+ marks in BITSAT mocks show good chances of Pilani/Hyderabad/Goa admission. For Telangana EAMCET, securing 80%+ accuracy in state-level practice tests typically ensures a government seat in CSE/ECE. Regular mock analysis, improving weak topics, and comparing her percentile trends will give the most reliable measure of her admission chances.
Hello Aspirant,
From your BITSAT score of 210, BITS Hyderabad entry supports a very focused choice of integrated M.Sc. (like M.Sc. Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Economics or Biology). Generally with this score, admission into the M.Sc. programs at BITS Hyderabad is likely competitive. Based on past trends, the cutoff's for the M.Sc. programs at Hyderabad have ranged 220 to 250. While 210 will typically be below the cutoff marks for most M.Sc. courses, you might still have a small chance / opportunity during the last / spot rounds, provided the cutoff trend is slightly lower that year.
Hello Aspirant,
With a BITSAT score of 172 and SRMJEEE Phase 2 rank of 14,110, securing top branches like CSE at BITS Pilani, Goa, or Hyderabad is unlikely, as their cutoffs are much higher (around 240–270+ for lesser-known branches). Similarly, SRM KTR campus for CSE closes within ~2,000–5,000 rank, so core branches at SRM KTR may not be possible, but Ramapuram or Vadapalani campuses might offer CSE or allied branches.
Now, comparing your other two options:
VIT Bhopal
Part of the reputed VIT group.
Newer campus but decent infrastructure.
Better academic reputation than CU.
Good placements mainly for CSE/IT streams.
Chandigarh University (CU):
Known for aggressive placement marketing.
Good exposure, foreign tie-ups, and more affordable for North Indian students.
Decent placement packages for CSE/AI/ML, but mass placements are often on the lower side.
If you get CSE or CSE-related branches at VIT Bhopal then you take admission at VIT Bhopal.
If not, Chandigarh University is a decent alternative, especially if you’re from North India and want affordability and exposure.
All the best for your admission process.

Hello,
With a BITSAT score of 263, getting EEE or Electronics and Instrumentation at BITS Hyderabad or Goa may be tough. These branches usually close at a higher score.
Even if the paper was tougher this year, the cut-offs may not drop much. You might have a better chance in later rounds, but it’s still a bit difficult. Keep backup options ready.
Hope it helps !
