VIT Vellore is holding the VITEEE exam from April 28 to May 3. With only five days left, students need a smart plan to get good scores. The exam has negative marking, so guessing answers can hurt your score. This guide shares tips for the final preparation days.
Last Minute Preparation for VITEEE 2026
The final five days before the VITEEE 2026 exam are very important. Students should use a good strategy to score well. This year, the exam includes negative marking. This means losing marks for wrong answers, so students should be careful.
How to Use Old Exam Papers for Practice
The VITEEE exam is usually not too difficult. Experts suggest practicing many old question papers (PYQs). To get the most out of them, try solving one full paper at a time, as if it were the real exam. Make sure you are in a quiet place without distractions. After you finish, check your answers and see where you made mistakes.
Safe Number of Questions to Answer
The VITEEE 2026 exam has a total of 500 marks. Each question carries 4 marks, and 1 mark is deducted for each incorrect answer. To score well, especially for Computer Science Engineering (CSE) at VIT Vellore, aiming for around 450 marks out of 500 is a good target. This means getting about 115 to 120 questions correct.
If you aim for 400+ marks, try to correctly answer between 102 to 110 questions. Here’s a guide for safe attempts in different sections:
| Section | Total Safe Attempts |
| Physics and Chemistry | 27+ |
| Maths | 35+ |
| Aptitude and English | 12+ |
