VITEEE 2009 has come and gone. For those who attempted the
entrance test of the famous Vellore Institute of Technology this
year, it was a mixed bag of reactions.
On one hand, students
were happy that the paper was not as tough as it could have been,
Whereas on the other hand, students were disappointed over alleged
mistakes in the question paper leading to some confusion.
This year's VITEEE paper was well laid out in all other
aspects and had equal number of questions in all sections. The
Authorities had also decided not to let students walk away with the
actual entrance exam question paper booklet making it that much
harder for students to analyze their answers.
Here's a General analysis of VITEEE 2009 paper.
The paper comprised of 120 questions to be completed in 150
minutes. Depending on the student's interest, the optional sections
would have been Either Mathematics - for Engineering Aspirants Only
or Biology - For Medical seat aspirants Only.
For every
correct answer 1 mark was awarded. There is no negative marking in
VITEEE 2009.
Difficulty level of the Paper
The paper was simple. There were a number of questions that
focused on some key topics and some students were annoyed a few
questions had mistakes leading to confusion.
As it was an easy
paper overall, Expected Cutoff for VITEEE 2009 could be a tad higher
at around 90 to 92+ Marks Out of 120.
For those who may score
lesser there is still hope.
The Biotechnology Engineering Branch cutoff is expected to be
slightly lower at around 85.

A Section Wise look at the Paper
PHYSICS
This section was loaded with theoretical questions with Only
15% of the questions being numerical problems.
Questions from
Electrostatics and Electromagnetic Induction dominated this section
as compared to Optics. Questions based on Modern Physics and
Electronics and Communications were also present. If you were a CBSE
student you may have fared better others in this section as most
questions pertained to CBSE relevant syllabus. This question paper
would also have been more familiar to students who studied +2 under
TamilNadu State Board and also for students who used NCERT text
books as study materials.
Overall, The Physics section was a
Average score-able, theoretical one.
CHEMISTRY
A simple student friendly section so to speak. All Students
from different State Level Boards could have easily scored well in
this part.
Organic Chemistry questions dominated this section,
Physical Chemistry and Inorganic Chemistry questions were in much
lesser numbers.
Overall, The Chemistry section too was a
Theoretical one with several Easy score-able questions.
MATHEMATICS
Most VITEEE aspirants felt let down in this section. It was
very lengthy with a number of derivative based problems.
Questions on topics like Probability, Statistics, Discrete
Maths, and Three Dimensional Geometry were the highlights of this
section.Questions on Complex numbers were significantly higher in
number than questions based on Calculus. Trigonometry questions were
in conspicuously lesser numbers.
Overall, this section was a
Lengthy one with Average scoring possibilities. If you have actually
managed to answer most questions, your score will definitely reflect
its distinction.
BIOLOGY
Questions based on Genetics and Applied Biology were prominent
whereas questions based on Life Processes formed a small percentage.
Yet Another section that required students to have a
Theoretical approach to score well. Students from CBSE would have
found this section fairly easy whereas Students from some State
Boards may have been surprised by some out of syllabi
questions.
Overall, an Easy section with Average to High
scoring possibilities.
With
VITEEE '09 results expected by 9th May, 2009,
All that Team minglebox has to say is Good Luck!
Keep your
fingers crossed, You just might land up with a seat at Vellore
Institute of Technology!

adarsh1309 : i am adarsh,studying in kerala(state syllabus).i think physics and chemistry was much easier than maths.
namrata8278 : May I get the solution keys of the VITEEE-2009???n ya cut-off should go along with the timing aspects...
rishi5876 : in paper time was less so cut of should be go with that aspects also
