The BITSAT 2026 Session 2 and WBJEE 2026 entrance exams will conflict on May 24, 2026 . This date clash affects students who planned to take both tests for admission to engineering programs.
WBJEE grants admission to engineering colleges in West Bengal. BITSAT provides entry to BITS Pilani campuses in Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad. Students now face a choice between these two significant exams.
The scheduling conflict has prompted requests for revision from students and educational stakeholders. They are asking the organizing bodies to adjust the dates.
