Hello aspirant,

Congratulations on your excellent performance in the Karnataka PU Board exams and your JEE Main percentile! For admission to IIIT Bangalore, you typically need to meet certain criteria, and here's a general breakdown:

1. IIIT Bangalore Admission Criteria : IIIT Bangalore usually admits students based on their performance in JEE Main or the undergraduate entrance test (UGET) conducted by the institute. For JEE Main, a higher percentile is often required, typically above 90 to be competitive for a seat in the main branches like CSE or ECE.

2. KCET Ranking : Your KCET rank of 12296 is relatively high compared to the typical cutoff ranks for top engineering colleges in Karnataka. However, IIIT Bangalore primarily considers JEE Main scores for admissions rather than KCET.
