Hello Aspirant,

Yes, a General Merit (GM) student should think about attending the 2nd extended round of KCET counselling. Although the seat matrix may reflect "No GM seats" initially, there may still be openings due to withdrawals, non-reporting by allotted candidates, or upgrades from earlier rounds. All vacated seats were renewed, not currently being used by candidates, and some of these openings can be again filled under GM category. Many students have gained good seats in this round by attending 2nd extended counselling, although the first matrix indicated "zero".

Yes, you can be eligible for the KCET exam even if you studied your 11th and 12th (Intermediate) in Andhra Pradesh, provided you meet certain domicile/residency criteria of Karnataka.

Since you completed your schooling up to 10th standard in Karnataka and are a Karnataka domicile, you may be eligible under Clause (a) or (b) of KCET eligibility. These clauses usually include:

• You must have studied in Karnataka for at least 7 years including 10th.

• Or one of your parents must have studied in Karnataka for at least 7 years.

• Or your mother/father must be a Karnataka state government employee.

You will likely need to submit a domicile certificate or study certificate from Karnataka to support your claim.

Hello!

M S Ramaiah University , Bangalore, is one of the reputed private universities in Karnataka. For admission through KCET the cutoff ranks change every year.It depends upon the category, number of seats and number of students applied.

Last year for branches like Computer science and Engineering the cutt off was between 10,000-15000 for General category students and branches like mechanical, civil or ECE their cutt off was between 20,000-40,000.For categories like SC,ST or OBC the cutt offs go much higher.

In case a student gets a seat on the second round KCET counseling And if you not paid the required fee as per the time limit then the seat will be automatically cancelled. Then the seat will be termed as vacant and can be given it to other deserving candidates in the second turn or the open ended turn.

When this happens the student is not usually given the chance to take up the seat again. But in case additional rounds of counseling (such as extended second less competitive round or casual vacancy round are added, the students can enter again only the permission of KEA (Karnataka Examination Authority) to enter or re enter some certain conditions.

One should regularly visit the official KCET site in order to receive any announcement. Failure to pay the fee by deadline is considered as refusal to occupy the allocated seat

In this case you should make an attempt to call KEA helpdesk to find out whether there is any alternative solutions to you. good luck!

KCET 2025 counselling is mainly online, but document verification is done offline at helpline centers. After that, all steps like option entry, seat allotment, and fee payment are done online through the KEA portal. Keep checking the official site for updates.

BEST REGARDS

With a practical rank of 14,300 in KCET and your category being 2A OBC + 371J, you do have a fair chance of getting a BSc Agriculture seat in Karnataka under the reserved quota.

Here’s a practical breakdown:

• In previous years, students with ranks around 12,000 to 16,000 in practical rank (with reservation) have secured BSc Agri seats in government and government-aided colleges.

• The 2A and 371J reservation works strongly in your favor, especially in Hyderabad-Karnataka region colleges (now Kalyana Karnataka).

• Seat availability and college preference matter—popular colleges fill fast, but you have a decent chance in regional universities or newer agri colleges.

Your chances are good, especially in:

• Colleges located in Bidar, Raichur, or other north Karnataka regions.

• Seats under University of Agricultural Sciences, Raichur or Dharwad.

Hey Karthik:)

Thanks for reaching out!

With a KCET rank of 7,727 under the 2A reservation category your chances of getting CSE at Dayananda Vidyasagar College Of Engineering (DVCE) are at borderline but possible,especially in later rounds .In the previous year cutoff trends, closing rank for CSE under 2A category was around 7,500 which places you slightly above the past cutoff.So admission in the first shift is unlikely .You may have a chance in 2nd or later rounds depending on seat availability, cut-off movements and dropout cases.

Your rank is close enough to the cutoff to keep DSCE CSE as a hopeful option especially if you're open to later rounds but keep strong backup options ready and stay updated with the councelling process.
