Hi aspirant,

To prepare well for the MET exam , use a planned approach .

1. Begin by completely studying the test structure and syllabus .
2. Make a well-structured timetable to devote enough time to each subject , prioritizing weaker areas and periodically updating strong ones .
3. Importantly, practice extensively using mock exams and previous years' papers to improve speed , accuracy , and time management , as the MET is frequently described as a speed-based exam with a mix of MCQs (with negative marking) and Numerical Answer Type (NAT) problems (with negative marking).
4. Finally, to keep intellectually and physically alert, stick to a balanced schedule that includes enough rest and proper nutrition .

Yes, 380 5MET score, and your 12th score you comfortably, neat, both eligibility criteria. You are likely to be well above the cut-off for BSc nursing at Manipal University.

85% Seat Allocation for Delhi Candidates : DTU reserves 85% of its seats across programs, including B.Tech, BBA, and MBA, for candidates who have completed their qualifying education—such as Class 12 for undergraduate courses or a Bachelor’s degree for MBA—from a recognized institution located in Delhi. Given that your schooling is from Delhi, you fulfill this criterion and are eligible for the Delhi quota. This reservation policy prioritizes you over out-of-state candidates, who compete for the remaining 15% of seats, thereby enhancing your chances of securing admission.

Validity of Caste Certificate from Haryana : Your caste certificate from Haryana is valid for claiming reservation benefits at DTU, provided it is issued by a competent authority and adheres to the Government of India’s guidelines for categories such as OBC-NCL, SC, or ST. DTU, as a state university, accepts caste certificates from other states for reservation purposes, so your certificate should not pose any issue, assuming it aligns with the category you’ve applied under. For instance, if applying under OBC-NCL, the certificate must be recent (typically issued within the last year) and reflect your status on the Central OBC list. The 85% Delhi quota is determined solely by your schooling location, not the state of issuance of your caste certificate, so this aspect does not impact your eligibility for the quota.

MBA-Specific Eligibility at DTU : If you are applying for DTU’s MBA program, the eligibility criteria include a Bachelor’s degree with a minimum of 60% marks (50% for SC/ST candidates). Admission typically requires a valid CAT score, followed by a counseling process or an interview. As a Delhi candidate, you fall under the 85% quota, and your caste certificate can be utilized to avail reservation benefits, potentially easing cutoff requirements or prioritizing your seat allocation.

With a MET 2025 rank of 12,456, you have a good chance to get CSE specialization at Manipal campuses, but mainly at smaller or newer campuses rather than the main Manipal campus.

Likely Campuses for CSE with your rank:

Manipal Jaipur

Manipal Hyderabad

Manipal Bangalore (some branches)

Manipal Sikkim

Possibly Manipal Dubai (if applicable)

Less likely but possible with waitlist or management quota:

Main Manipal campus (Manipal Karnataka) usually needs a rank below 5,000 for CSE.

Dear Candidate ,
With a MET 2025 score of 184 out of 400 and  an All India Rank of 221 , you  have a very good chance of getting a seat in the  Bachelor of Occupational Therapy ( BOT ) course at Manipal College  of Health Professions . In previous  years , the closing rank for BOT has gone up to around 797 , so your current rank is well within the expected cutoff range. You should stay updated on the counseling schedule through the official Manipal Portal and be ready with your documents for the admission process .

With a MET rank of 7,299, securing admission to Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) at the Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT), Manipal campus is unlikely based on previous years' cutoffs.

Previous Year ECE Cutoffs at MIT Manipal

In the 2024 admission cycle, the closing ranks for ECE at MIT Manipal were:

Round 1: 5,909

Round 2: 6,349

Your rank of 7,299 exceeds these cutoffs, indicating that admission to ECE at the Manipal campus may not be feasible

With an 8.9k MET rank, there's a good chance you can get into the B.Tech IT program at Manipal University Bangalore, but it depends on the specific cutoff for that program and your category (if applicable).

The expected cutoff for MIT Manipal can be between 5k to 35k.

With a score of 130 in KCET 2025, getting a CSE seat in top government or top-tier private colleges in Bangalore may be challenging, especially under the General category. However, you still have a chance in some good private colleges depending on your category (like SC, ST, OBC, 3A, etc.) and whether you belong to a rural or Kannada medium quota. Colleges like Atria Institute of Technology, AMC Engineering College, or New Horizon College of Engineering may be within reach for CSE or similar branches like ISE or AI&DS.

Keep checking the official KEA counseling portal for cutoff ranks from the previous years, as they give a clearer idea of what to expect. Also, try keeping backup options like Information Science, Artificial Intelligence, or ECE in slightly lower-tier colleges, as they sometimes offer similar opportunities. If you’re aiming for CSE specifically, you can also consider applying for management quota or explore spot round counseling if available.

Hi Johan,

You can only amend your second PUC board marks to your KCET (or MET) after your third improvement exams. You will have to upload your new marks on the KEA (Karnataka Examinations Authority) portal after the results come out in the first week of July in the allowed window of time for correction or updating the grades.

If the marks increased in the PCME subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and English), it could affect your KCET ranking, since 50% of your CET rank is based on the board exam marks in PCME subjects. Make sure you are monitoring the official site for ongoing information about time required to enter marks as well as document verification.
