The expected KCET cutoff rank for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) in top colleges is between 1000 and 3600. For reference, Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in top colleges typically has a cutoff between 1,200 and 3,000, while other branches like Electronics and Communication (ECE) and Electrical and Electronics (EEE) have slightly higher cutoff ranks, ranging from 2,800 to 15,000. Mechanical and Civil Engineering branches have a wider range of cutoff ranks, typically between 5,000 to 15,000 and 8,000 to 18,000, respectively.
