Here’s how we can estimate your rank:


  1. Calculate your KCET Percentage: (Your KCET Score / Total KCET Marks) * 100 (78 / 180) * 100 = 43.33%
  2. Calculate your Board Exam Percentage (assuming PCM): You scored 270 out of 300 in total for all subjects. To consider only PCM, we need the marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Assuming an equal distribution (which might not be accurate, but for an estimate): Marks per subject ≈ 270 / Number of Subjects (let's assume 6 for example) = 45 Assuming you scored similarly in PCM, your PCM total would be around 45 * 3 = 135 (This is a rough estimate. For a more accurate rank, you need your actual PCM marks. ) Percentage in PCM ≈ (135 / 300) * 100 = 45%
  3. Calculate your Combined Score for Ranking: (KCET Percentage / 2) + (Board Exam Percentage / 2) (43.33 / 2) + (45 / 2) = 21.665 + 22.5 = 44.165
  4. Estimate your Rank based on the Combined Score:

Based on the provided search results, there isn't a direct formula to convert this combined percentage to a specific rank. However, we can infer a likely rank range from the "KCET Marks vs Rank" information, keeping in mind the 50:50 weightage.

  • A KCET score of 70-79 generally corresponds to a rank between 40,001 and 50,000.
  • A KCET score of 80-89 generally corresponds to a rank between 30,001 and 40,000.

Since your KCET score is 78, your rank based purely on KCET marks would likely fall in the 40,001 - 50,000 range.

Now, let's consider the board marks. Your estimated board percentage in PCM (45%) is slightly higher than your KCET percentage (43.33%). This might slightly improve your overall rank compared to what it would be based solely on your KCET score.

Therefore, with a KCET score of 78 and an estimated PCM board percentage of 45%, your KCET rank is likely to be in the range of approximately 35,000 to 45,000.

Remember this is an estimated rank.

Hope This Helps !

With 78 marks in KCET and 270 in your board exams, your expected KCET rank would likely fall in the range of 35,000 to 50,000. This estimate is based on the 50:50 weightage system for board marks and KCET scores. However, the final rank could vary due to factors like:

The overall performance of other students in KCET

The difficulty level of the exa

The normalization process used by KEA (Karnataka Examinations Authority)

The rank range is approximate, and checking the official counseling and cutoff details will provide more clarity once the results are announced.

o determine your KCET rank, the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) considers both your KCET score and your board exam marks (specifically in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics). They give equal weightage (50%) to each.

Here's how the composite score for ranking is typically calculated:

  1. Calculate the percentage of your KCET marks: (Your KCET score / Total KCET marks) * 100 In your case: (78 / 180) * 100 = 43.33%

  2. Calculate the percentage of your board exam marks (in PCM): (Your PCM marks / Total PCM marks) * 100 Assuming your total marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in your boards were 270 out of 300: (270 / 300) * 100 = 90%

  3. Calculate the composite score: (KCET percentage + Board percentage) / 2 In your case: (43.33 + 90) / 2 = 66.665%

Given your KCET score of 78, the expected rank range based on the provided sources is approximately 30,001 to 50,000 . Your relatively high board marks will help in improving your rank within this range.

I hope this helps.
