On Question asked by student community
Hello Aspirant,
Based on previous years' KEAM allotment data, getting a seat at Jamia Salafiya Pharmacy College with a rank of 22270 in the third allotment is unlikely .
The college's cutoff ranks in past years for the final allotment rounds have generally been much lower than your rank. It's advisable to look at other colleges where your rank might be competitive.
Hello
If you're preparing for KEAM Maths, chapter-wise PYQs are a total game-changer. They help you focus on one topic at a time and understand what kind of questions usually come up. Books like Arihant’s or Embibe’s chapter-wise collections make it super easy to practice smart. You’ll spot patterns, improve speed, and gain confidence step by step.

Since your daughter was born in Kerala and you completed your full education there, she is eligible for KEAM. Even though she is studying in Pune now, she can apply under the “Keralite” category as per KEAM rules. Just make sure to submit valid proof of birth in Kerala and your education certificates from Kerala during the application process. This will ensure she is considered a Keralite for admission purposes.
Hi Aswathi!
Domicile eligibility for Kerala usually depends on criteria like place of birth, duration of residence, and parents’ origin. Since your daughter was born in Kerala and her mother studied there, she can often claim Kerala domicile, even if you’ve been living in Pune. You’ll need to apply for a Kerala domicile certificate from the local Village Office/Taluk Office in Kerala, providing documents like her birth certificate showing Kerala as birthplace, mother’s educational certificates from Kerala, and any property/residence proof in Kerala. This can make her eligible for Kerala state quota in admissions. Always check the specific admission brochure (like KEAM) because some courses also require continuous study in Kerala for certain years.
Hope this helps, and thank you for your query!
