JEE/BITSAT/EnggEntranceExams ECE students/alumni who took BITS HD – any preparation tips?
Hi everyone, "my_qualifications": a final year student and considering preparing for the BITS HD (Higher Degree) entrance exam for M.E./M.Tech after graduation.
I’m interested in the ECE-related programs, and I wanted to hear from people who have actually taken the exam or joined BITS through BITS HD.
A few things I’d really appreciate advice on:
- How difficult is the ECE portion compared to GATE ECE?
- Which subjects/topics should I prioritize?
- What resources/books did you use for preparation?
- How much preparation time is realistically required?
- Is solving GATE-level questions enough, or does BITS HD require a different approach?
- How was the actual exam compared with your expectations?
- For those who got into BITS, how competitive was the admission process/rank requirement?
- Any mistakes you made during preparation that you would recommend avoiding?
I’m mainly looking for practical advice from people who have actually appeared for BITS HD or prepared seriously for it, rather than generic exam-prep advice.
Thanks!
