If you have entered "result awaiting" for your degree marks card in the Karnataka PGCET application and cannot edit the application now, it could be an issue. Typically, the application form requires accurate academic details, including marks obtained in previous semesters.
However, the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) does provide a correction window for the application form. If the correction window is still open, you may be able to update your details. If it has closed, you should contact the KEA directly for guidance on how to proceed, as they may have specific protocols for such situations.
It’s essential to ensure that all information is correct to avoid any complications during the admission process.
