Hi

A KCET rank of 30,915 can still offer you a good range of options, especially under the state quota and depending on your category . While top government colleges like UVCE or RVCE may be slightly out of reach at this rank, there are still several good engineering colleges that accept ranks around this range for various branches, especially in core and emerging areas.Some of the colleges you might get into include Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, JSSATE, or Acharya Institute of Technology, in branches like Mechanical, Civil, EEE, or newer programs like AI & ML in less competitive colleges. Counseling plays a huge role here, and choice filling should be done smartly by analyzing previous year cutoff trends.

Hello Aspirant,

If you got an engineering seat through KCET 2024, and now want to take MBBS through NEET UG 2025, you will need to cancel the engineering seat at KEA before participating in MBBS counselling.

Cancellation Process: You can cancel your KCET seat either through the KEA portal, or you can visit the college to which you were allotted into and request a cancellation letter (apply for a cancellation letter).

Fine/Penalty:

  • If you get your cancellation letter before the commencement of the second academic year, there may be a fine or penalty that you will need to follow as specified in the KEA rules.
  • In most cases after completing one full years worth of studies. you may still pay an entire course fee or a fixed penalty amount, again depending on your college and the KEA' policy.

Contact KEA and your current engineering college for confirmation of the exact penalty (if any) and obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) if it is necessary for the new MBBS admission.

With a KCET veterinary rank of 53353 and a practical rank of 3533 under agri quota, your chances for a veterinary seat in Karnataka depend on seat availability and category cut-offs.

Since agriculture quota and practical ranks hold weight, you may get a seat, especially in newer or less competitive colleges. Still, it's borderline. Wait for counselling rounds and consider options in later rounds too.


With a KCET rank of 93,503 and you belonging to the OBC 3A category, it is difficult to get admission into top colleges like RV College of Engineering, BMS College, MSRIT, or PES University for the Computer Science (CSE) course. These colleges usually close CSE admissions much earlier, often below 20,000 rank.

You may have a chance to get CSE in some private or newer engineering colleges. These colleges sometimes accept students with ranks above 90,000, especially in later rounds of counseling. You can also try for related branches like Information Science (ISE), Artificial Intelligence, or Electronics and Communication (ECE), which may have slightly higher closing ranks in some colleges.

It’s also a good idea to apply in the second or third round of counseling. Seats sometimes become available when others leave or upgrade their options. You can also check if some colleges have management quota seats where your rank may not matter as much.

For better chances, you should also keep options open for smaller or rural engineering colleges across Karnataka that still offer the CSE course.

With a KCET rank of 10115, you may get admission in decent Bangalore-based engineering colleges like Dayananda Sagar College, Acharya Institute of Technology, or NMIT, but AI in CSE is highly competitive. You might get it in newer or private institutions

Hello,

With a KCET rank of around 49,000, your chances for admission to CSE, especially with a specialization in AI and ML, are quite low. CSE (Computer Science Engineering) and its specializations like AI and ML in top-tier colleges usually require ranks under 8,000, and even more competitive under 3,000 to 5,000 for general CSE.

KCET Cutoffs: CSE and AI/ML (General Category)

RV College of Engineering (RVCE): AI and ML closing rank around 1,341; CSE closing rank around 606 to 636

Ramaiah Institute of Technology (RIT): AI and ML closing rank around 3,675; CSE closing rank around 1,024

Siddaganga Institute of Technology (SIT): AI and ML closing rank around 12,835; CSE closing rank around 10,899

PES University: AI and ML closing rank around 4,030; CSE closing rank around 4,030

These figures are based on previous years or expected trends for 2025 and are only indicative.

At a rank of approximately 49,000, your options are:

CSE or AI and ML are generally not available at most top colleges through the general quota

Some lower-tier or less competitive private institutions may offer seats in AI/ML or CSE, but mainly through reserved categories or management quota

For reference, general category cutoffs for CSE and AI/ML in mid-tier colleges usually fall within the range of 10,000 to 20,000.

Suggestions Based on Your Rank:

1. Explore Other Branches at Private Colleges

Fields like Information Science, Electronics, or Data Science may have wider entry ranges, typically around ranks 15,000 to 30,000 or higher.

Hi dear candidate,

There are various colleges available for your rank like BMS Institute of Technology, Dayanand Sagar Academy of Technology etc. But AI/ML is a very high in demand branch which is very competitive so, getting a top tier college is difficult. But the colleges mentioned above should be worth trying as they accept admissions with higher rank as well but you may need to wait till at least 2nd round of seat allocation.
