Hai. I am a student studying ISC syllabus... Is writing BITSAT easy for me ? If not what should i do..

I would like to tell you that if you are a science stream ISC student then it will be somewhat easy for you to score marks in BITSAT, because BITSAT exam pattern covers science stream subjects like Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry. So these are some subjects from which questions usually comes in BITSAT exam, so studying science with ISC syllabus is beneficial for you.

There is nothing such as difficult or easy, it all depends upon one's own perception and whereas if you are worried that you may be competent enough for his examination so you can may work extremely hard or wait for a year and prepare well and appear for the exam in the coming year.

It cannot be said that BITSAT exam is tough for ISC or any other board's student. If you prepare well for the examination, you will most probably get through the examination and score quite well.

However, I am providing you the names of some books which you may prefer for preparation of your BITSAT examination.
