Hello,

The KCET 2025 website is experiencing technical issues affecting student registrations. Here are the main points of issue :-

• The portal has glitches, particularly for second-year PU students, causing difficulty in completing registrations.
• These students are unable to mark their current educational status correctly, blocking further actions.
• Although students with completed PU are able to proceed, many in their second year face delays.
• This issue has raised concerns among applicants and affected the registration process.

Given your background as a CBSE student in Karnataka, you may not be directly affected by the second-year PU registration issues. However, it's advisable to stay informed about any updates or changes to the application process.

Hope it helps !

Hello there,

Your son may be eligible for KCET 2025 if he meets the eligibility criteria set by the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA). Here are the main eligibility factors to consider:

Eligibility Criteria for KCET:

1. Resident of Karnataka :

   • He should have studied for at least 7 years in Karnataka (LKG to 10th grade). This makes him eligible under the "Karnataka Resident" category.
     
     
   • Since he has completed 10th in Karnataka , he should meet this requirement, even though he is currently in Tamil Nadu.
     
     

2. Nationality : He must be an Indian citizen.
   
   

3. Education :

   • For KCET , he should have passed 12th grade (or equivalent) with the necessary subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) for engineering or Biology for medical courses.
     
     
   • He will need to meet the minimum marks requirement (typically 45% for General category and 40% for SC/ST/OBC).
     
     

4. Eligibility for Candidates from Outside Karnataka : If your son is temporarily residing in Tamil Nadu, he can still apply for KCET as long as he fulfills the 7 years of Karnataka education condition, as he did his LKG to 10th in Karnataka.
   
   Conclusion:

As long as he fulfills the 7-year education condition in Karnataka (LKG to 10th) and meets the other eligibility conditions, he should be eligible to appear for KCET 2025 .

It’s recommended to verify the eligibility criteria by checking the official KCET 2025 notification from KEA, as specific conditions might be updated.

If your caste and income certificate for KCET application is still under process and you have been provided an RD number, you can use the RD number as a temporary reference while filling out the application. The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) often allows candidates to provide the RD number in such situations, as it shows that the certificate process has been initiated. However, ensure that the certificate is issued and available before the document verification process, as it is mandatory to submit the actual certificate at that stage. Keep track of the issuance process to avoid any delays. If you're unsure, contact the KEA helpline or officials for clarification and ensure compliance with their guidelines.
