Hello,

As per the information available in the Karnataka PGCET 2021 Information brochure the seat allotment is based on preferences of candidate and seat availability. So in any round the a seat is allotted based on seat availability and preferences of the candidate and not based on cut off. The cutoff only indicates the last rank under each category admitted to a particular college / course during the previous year. One should not exercise options based on cut-off ranks as it is subjected to change every year. It can be only seen as reference.  The options should be exercised purely based on the interest of the candidate. It is quite difficult to predict the cut off for second round and by how much it may increase or decrease until the second round is concluded. So to check the second round cut off please wait until the cut off released on the KEA website.

The link to the official website is given below
