I have wrote kcet exam and i had took PCMB combination for the exam how to calculate rank for PCB

Hello,

If you have written the KCET exam with the PCMB combination , and you want to calculate your PCB rank , then only your Physics, Chemistry, and Biology marks will be considered for that.

Here's how it works:

• Your PCB rank will be calculated based on the marks you got in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology in the KCET exam and your Class 12th (PUC) marks in the same three subjects.

• The final rank is calculated by taking 50% of KCET marks (PCB) and 50% of Class 12th (PCB) marks .

You can also use our KCET Rank Calculator Tool to predict your rank based on your scores.

Hope it helps !

Hello there,

To calculate your KCET rank for the PCB (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology) combination, here’s a general idea of how it works:

1. KCET Rank Calculation Methodology :

   • Raw Marks : The marks you score in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology will be taken into account for the PCB rank.
     
     

   • Normalization : The marks from the KCET exam are normalized based on the number of candidates who appeared and the difficulty level of the exam.
     
     

   • Weightage for Class 12 Marks : Depending on the policy of the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA), your Class 12 marks in the relevant subjects (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology) may be added to the final score, affecting your overall rank.
     
     

2. Rank Calculation :

   • Rank for PCB : Your rank for PCB will be calculated based on your performance in the Physics, Chemistry, and Biology subjects. This rank is separate from your overall KCET rank if you had chosen other subjects (such as Mathematics).
     
     

3. Steps to Calculate :

   • After your exam results are declared, your marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology will be used to calculate your individual subject score.
     
     

   • The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA uses a formula to normalize your marks and combine them with your Class 12 scores (if applicable) to determine your final rank.
     
     

4. Get Your Official Rank : Visit the official KEA website or the KCET portal to check your results and rank after the exam. KEA will publish the official ranks once the results are finalized.
   
   

5. What Affects Rank :

   • Your Score : Higher marks in the PCB subjects increase your chances of getting a lower (better) rank.
     
     

   • Category : If you belong to a reserved category, your rank will be calculated separately for that category as well, which could increase your chances of getting a seat in government colleges.

If you're looking to know your approximate rank, it’s best to use any available rank predictor tools provided by the KEA or other third-party platforms. However, the official rank can only be obtained after the results are declared.

I would recommend you to use KCET Rank Predictor Tool by Careers360 to predict your Rank.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, then feel free to share your questions with us, we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.

Hii,

To calculate your rank for the PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) combination in the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) 2025, you need to consider both your KCET exam scores and your Class 12 (2nd PUC) board exam marks, as the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) uses a 50:50 weightage system for these scores.

To estimate your KCET 2025 rank for PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology):

1. KCET Score : Add your marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (out of 180). Example: 120/180 = 66.67%.
2. Board Score : Add your 2nd PUC marks in PCB (out of 300). Example: 270/300 = 90%.
3. Final Score : Combine both with 50:50 weightage: (KCET % / 2) + (Board % / 2). Example: (66.67 / 2) + (90 / 2) = 33.34 + 45 = 78.34%.
4. Rank Estimation : Use past trends or a KCET Rank Predictor tool:
   • 165/180 (~92%) + 90% board: ~500–1,000 rank
   • 120/180 (~67%) + 88% board: ~2,500–3,000 rank
   • 80/180 (~44%) + 88% board: ~10,000 rank
5. Check Official Results : Wait for KEA’s official rank in May 2025, as normalization and competition affect the final rank.

For accuracy, use a rank predictor tool like Careers360 with your exact marks.
