The entrance exam for VIT's campuses at Vellore, Chennai, Bhopal, and Amaravati — no negative marking, and a unique rank-based slot system.
VIT Vellore is one of India's most popular private engineering colleges, and VITEEE is the exam that decides which campus and branch combination you get.

After results, students are called for slot booking in rank order — the higher your rank, the earlier you book, and earlier bookers get first pick of campus and branch. Rank 1–1,000 can get CSE at Vellore; by rank 15,001–30,000, popular combinations are gone but ECE, Mechanical, and Civil at Vellore are typically still available.
No — VITEEE difficulty is lower, closer to NCERT-level than JEE Main's advanced problem-solving. There's also no negative marking, which makes it a high-attempt exam where students should try all 125 questions. Students who've prepared seriously for JEE Main typically find VITEEE comfortable.
A counsellor can map your mock scores to a likely slot-booking outcome.
