KCET 2026 Paper Analysis (Based on Previous Year)

The KCET 2026 exam is anticipated to be similar to traditional KCET exams, covering Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and optional Biology.

1. Mathematics: Mathematics has 60 questions on average and tends to be the most challenging section of the exam. Generally the questions focus on Algebra (Quadratic Equations, Matrices, etc.), Calculus (Differentiation and Integration), Trigonometry, Coordinate Geometry, and Probability. The suggested range of attempts is around 40–45 questions to ensure an accurate attempt in this section, as this section demands a combination of speed and accuracy.

2. Physics: Physics usually has around 60 questions and is generally considered moderate in difficulty. Important topics include Mechanics (Laws of Motion, Work and Energy), Electricity and Magnetism, Optics, and Modern Physics. The questions will be a mix of concept-based questions and numerical questions. Well-prepared students will likely have a good attempt range of around 35–40 questions.

3. Chemistry: Chemistry is generally 60 questions with moderate difficulty. Main focus topics will be Physical Chemistry (Mole Concept, Thermodynamics), Organic Chemistry (Hydrocarbons, Functional Group), and Inorganic Chemistry (Periodic Table, Chemical Bonding). The section is largely NCERT based and is predictable for the students who revise that content, as the same questions are rewritten each year. A well-prepared student should be approximately 35–40 good attempts.
