Hello,

With a KCET rank of 2.5 lakh and applying under the HK (Hyderabad-Karnataka) quota has a good chance of securing a seat in various colleges, particularly in the Hyderabad-Karnataka region.

Government colleges generally have higher cutoffs than private colleges, but the HK quota can make a difference.

Certain branches of engineering (like Civil, Mechanical, Electrical) might have lower cutoffs compared to Computer Science or Electronics and Communication.

You can check the official KCET website and college websites for detailed cutoff information for specific colleges and branches.

Read the article below to understand the college wise cutoffs:
