Hi aspirant,
You can download your KCET updated hall ticket from the official KEA website. To obtain your hall ticket for the KCET entrance exam 2025, please follow these steps:
With 88.3% in PCMB and 100/240 in KCET, you can expect an engineering rank between 3,501 and 4,000, and a medical rank between 2,501 and 3,000. These are estimates, and your actual rank may vary based on the overall performance of all KCET candidates and any seat allocation policies.
Explanation:
KCET Marks and Rank:
In KCET, a score of 90-100 out of 180 (or 100/240, which converts to roughly 90/180) is expected to result in a rank between 3,501 and 4,000.
Weightage of Board Marks:
KCET uses a 50:50 weightage policy for your final rank, meaning your board exam marks (PCMB) contribute equally to your final rank.
Specific Rank Range:
Considering your 88.3% in board exams and 100/240 in KCET, a rank between 3,501 and 4,000 is a reasonable expectation for engineering.
Medical Rank:
For medical programs, your rank would likely fall within the 2,501-3,000 range, again with possible variations depending on the overall performance of applicants.
If you score 165 out of 180 in PCB in KCET, your expected rank could be within 500 to 1,000, assuming your Class 12 board marks are also high (since KCET ranks for biology-based courses like BSc Agri, BPharm, etc., consider both PCB and board scores).
But final rank can vary based on:
Hello,
Based on previous years' trends, here's an estimate of the KCET score you might need to aim for, given your 2nd PUC PCB score of 232:
Top-tier colleges (e.g., RV College, MS Ramaiah, PES University) : To secure a seat in branches like Computer Science or Information Science, you may need a KCET score between 85 and 100. This could correspond to a rank within the top 5,000.
Mid-range colleges (e.g., Siddaganga Institute of Technology, Dayananda Sagar College) : A KCET score of 75 to 85 might place you within the 5,000 to 10,000 rank range, improving your chances for branches like Mechanical or Civil Engineering.
Other colleges : Scores below 75 may still secure you a seat, but the options might be limited to less competitive branches or colleges.
Remember, these are approximate estimates. The actual cutoff can vary each year based on factors like exam difficulty, number of applicants, and seat availability.
It's advisable to aim for the highest score possible to increase your chances of getting your preferred course and college.
Hope it helps !
