Selection and admission:

The merit / rank list will be prepared and published, on the basis of performance of the candidates in the Common Entrance Test and the Qualifying Examination. As per the merit determined by the CET Cell, the Medical, ISMH, Engineering and Architecture ranks will be assigned to the eligible candidates.

The Merit list of candidates for admission to Medical and Dental courses will be determined only on the basis of marks obtained by candidates in PCB subjects taken together in the Common Entrance Test. For Ayurveda / Homoeopathy / Unani / Naturopathy & Yoga / Engineering / Technology courses, the Merit list will be determined on the basis of marks obtained in the respective optional subjects, in both qualifying examination and the Common Entrance Test taken in equal proportions. For Architecture course, the Merit list will be determined on the basis of marks obtained in both qualifying examination and NATA taken in equal proportions. Reservation

All professional colleges within the Karnataka State which offers Medical Dental and Engineering colleges are affiliated to the state run Universities and recognized by the MCI, DCI and AICTE Education that fall to the share of the Karnataka State Government.

After the completion of the entrance test, the Key Answers will be published within 7 days on the CET website. About three days of time will be given for the candidates / parents / teachers, to file objections, if any, in respect of any of the published key answers, along with all supporting documents & justifications.

Moreover it is done through common entrance exam. The candidate appears in common entrance test viz IIT/ JEE/ RURKEE etc and from there according to the candidate's rank as per the achieved score in knowledge and knowledge applicability test the candidate gets right to select the college and apply for admission. Here the subjects are also important. Like in higher ranker colleges even if the candidate scoring good position in common entrance exam, he may not get subject of his choice (limitation of seat) for example out of above 2000 selected list of candidate if one candidate is on the rank of 200th level still he may not get subject of computers at a college like IIT kanpur. Of course he can get computers as his subject in some other (little lower level) college.

Answer no 2. For the purpose of admission separate application is to be sent to each college. One application is filled only at the time of entrance exam

Answer no 3.

Please click the link to get list of engineering colleges rank wise each name of he college is link based. As you click on the name of the college you will get admission notifications and rules/ process/ dates /forms / subject available / and other support related to specific college

Answer no 4.

• Apply in 5 to 8 colleges at a time • See whether the college is giving you your intentioned subject • In place of rushing behind the best college and wasting time and energy, identify you educational center as per the marks and score in entrance (if required) choose that college that may call up your candidature. • Get help of your teachers / earlier student of the given college / use internet and face book to call information about your selected colleges.

Minimum percentage of marks to get admission in Engineering colleges is 50%

Procedure to apply: A common application form is being given by the government Engineering council. It has to be filled and send to them through post or by person.

A day of counselling will be announced. During the counselling date, they will give the ranking by calculating the marks scored by the student in Physics, Chemistry and Maths combined.

Depending on the student marks scored, he would be placed in the Engineering colleges.

If the student scored well and in the top list will get the preferences to choose the colleges of their interest and the branch which they like.

When the ranking decreases, their preferences and choosing power will be limited.

If there is very less marks and there is no hope of getting any good courses, management quota could be selected. But for that donations has to be given to get a single seat.
