Symbiosis Institute of Technology conducts SITEEE as a computer-based test on the CBSE Class 11-12 Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics syllabus, all sections mandatory, no negative marking. The official structure publishes 60 questions for 120 marks (Physics 15/30, Chemistry 15/30, Mathematics 30/60), implying 2 marks per correct answer; the official material does not separately publish a fixed four-option count, so the four-option format used here is a TakeMockTest platform representation rather than a directly confirmed SIU rule.

The SITEEE Entrance Test exam pattern is 60 questions carrying 120 marks, to be answered in 60 minutes. That works out to about 60 seconds per question on average, before any time spent reading instructions or revisiting marked answers. The 3 sections are Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. All sections share one composite timer, so you are free to move between them and spend your time where it earns most.

SITEEE Entrance Test marking scheme

  • Each correct answer is worth 2 marks.
  • There is no negative marking, so leaving a question blank can only cost you: an unattempted question and a wrong one score the same zero. Attempt everything.
  • Worked example: attempt 48 of the 60 questions and get 36 right and 12 wrong, and you score 72 out of 120.

Practising against the same clock is the point of a mock test: at 60 seconds a question, the difference between a good score and an average one is usually pacing rather than knowledge. Attempt a free SITEEE mock test to see where your time actually goes.
