Hello

Here is a solution to your doubt

KCET 2025 cutoffs for B.Sc. Agriculture vary by college and category.
Top colleges like GKVK Bangalore close around 1,000–2,100 ranks.
Other reputed colleges like Dharwad and Mandya close below 4,000.
Colleges in Hassan, Shimoga, and Kalaburagi close around 3,000–4,800.
Cutoff ranks depend on the reservation category and competition.
The general category typically needs a rank below 5,000 for top colleges.
KCET results were announced in May 2025; counseling begins in June.
Students must check the KEA official site for the detailed seat matrix and updates.

Based on the KCET 2024 cutoffs, you can get admission to Bapuji Institute of Engineering and Technology (BIET), Davanagere if your rank is within the required range. For popular branches like Computer Science Engineering, the closing rank was around 31,000. For other branches like Artificial Intelligence, Information Science, and Data Science, the cutoff was between 45,000 to 48,000. Less competitive branches like Civil, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering had higher cutoff ranks, going up to 2.7 lakh. These ranks may slightly change in 2025.


With a KCET rank of 198,999 and belonging to the SC category , securing admission to Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE) on Kanakapura Road, Bengaluru, is highly unlikely.

DSCE KCET Cutoff Trends for SC Category

Based on the 2024 KCET Round 2 cutoffs , the closing ranks for SC category candidates at DSCE were as follows:

  • Computer Science and Engineering : 28,318

  • Artificial Intelligence : 30,795

  • Information Science : 39,096

  • Mechanical Engineering : 139,075

  • Civil Engineering : 168,632 (https://www.collegedekho.com/colleges/dayananda-sagar-college-of-engineering-cutoff?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

These figures indicate that even the least competitive branches had closing ranks well below your current rank of 198,999.

With a KCET rank of 1,46,370, getting a Government quota seat in a private college for BTech in Cyber Security may be a little difficult, as this is a newer and more in-demand course. However, you might still get a seat in lesser-known or rural private colleges where the cutoff is higher (i.e., ranks are lower in demand). Keep an eye on all rounds of counselling, including extended rounds, as some seats may open up due to withdrawals.



HEY THERE!!!

  • The KCET 2025 option entry process is anticipated to commence in July 2025, with the window likely extending through August.
  • Precise dates will be published by the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) on its official website.
  • Following document verification, which is scheduled for June, candidates will be able to submit their college and course preferences online during the designated option entry period.
  • It is advisable to monitor the KEA website regularly for updates and ensure that option entry is completed within the stipulated timeframe.

With a KCET rank of 46,000, your cousin has a fair chance of getting admission into AI & ML or Computer Science (CS) in some good private colleges in Bangalore under the government quota. Top colleges like RV, BMS, and MSRIT may be tough, but colleges like Acharya Institute, East West Institute, AMC Engineering, or T John College could be possible. It’s a good idea to apply to multiple colleges and check cutoffs in each counselling round for better chances.



Your son scored 42.33% in KCET and has an OBC category rank of 1,78,061. Yes, he is eligible for counselling because KCET allows students with minimum qualifying marks to apply. The next step is to register online on the official KCET counselling website when the registration starts. After registration, fill in the choice of colleges and courses carefully. Attend the document verification and seat allotment process as per schedule to secure a seat. Keep checking official updates regularly.



hi,

With your son’s KCET rank of 26,099, getting a seat in Electronics and Communication Engineering at KLS Gogte Institute might be difficult. Last year, the closing rank for that branch was around 19,000 to 23,000, which is better than his rank.

However, he can still try for counselling and see if any seats are left in later rounds. It’s also a good idea to consider other branches like Electrical Engineering, where the cutoffs are usually higher and might match his rank.

Make sure to complete the counselling registration on the official KEA website and keep checking for seat allotment updates. If this college doesn’t work out, you can look at other colleges or management quota options as a backup.

HEY THERE!!

  2. This amount is notably less than what is charged under the management or COMEDK quotas, where fees are considerably higher.
  3. It’s important to note that there may be additional university or miscellaneous fees, but the primary tuition for those admitted via KCET remains around INR 83,526 per year.
