Part 4	Mathematics/Biology (For B. Pharm.)	45
Total		150

All the very best and good luck.

BITSAT will be of total 3-hour duration (without break). The test consists of four parts:
Part I : Physics
Part II : Chemistry
Part III : (a) English Proficiency and (b) Logical Reasoning
Part IV : Mathematics or Biology (For B.Pharm candidates)
All questions are of objective type (multiple choice questions); each question with
choice of four answers, only one being correct choice. Each correct answer fetches 3
marks, while each incorrect answer has a penalty of 1 mark (-1mark). No marks are
awarded for questions not attempted. There will be 150 questions in all. The number of questions in each part is as follows:
Subject No of questions
Part I Physics 40
Part II Chemistry 40
Part III (a) English Proficiency 15
(b) Logical Reasoning 10
Part IV Mathematics/Biology (For B.Pharm) 45
Total: 150
There is no time limit for individual parts of the test. The candidate can go back and change
any of his/her answers among the 150 questions.
If a candidate answers all the 150 questions (without skipping any question), the candidate
will have an option of attempting 12 (twelve) extra questions, if there is still time left.
BITSAT focuses on concepts , the questions are not lengthy but tricky. Because of time constraints the difficulty is not sky high. Just focus on your basics(very thoroughly) and BITSAT will be easy for you.
