Dear student,
With a KCET agriculture practical rank of 8800 , you fall just outside the cutoff for top government colleges like GKVK Bengaluru and Dharwad , where the ranks typically close around 5200–8500. However, you still stand a good chance in other government colleges such as Mandya , Hassan , Shahapur , and Raichur , especially if you come under a reserved category .
Reserved categories like SC, ST, and OBC usually have higher closing ranks , which increases your chances significantly. So, if you belong to any of these, you may still get into decent government colleges.
Applications for Admissions are open.
In terms of private colleges , your rank is well within the usual admission range. These colleges generally accept higher ranks and have more available seats, so your chances there are very strong .
A few other things matter too—your category, number of applicants this year, and how many rounds of counselling you go through. If you don’t get a seat in the first round, don’t give up—many students get seats in the later rounds or spot counselling .
