- Candidate’s name

- Total marks obtained
- KCET rank
- Qualifying status

KCET 2026 Rank Calculation
KEA prepares the KCET rank list through a kind of combined evaluation process, so it is not just one thing. For engineering admissions, the rank is usually figured out like this, 50% weightage from KCET marks, and the other 50% weightage from Class 12 (2nd PUC) PCM marks.
Experts often say that if someone has lower board exam marks, they may need a better KCET score, so they can manage to land among the top engineering ranks.
KCET 2026 Counselling Process After Results
Once the results are declared, KEA will start the KCET counselling process. The eligible candidates will need to show up for things like document verification, option entry and choice filling, then the seat allotment rounds, followed by fee payment, and finally college reporting.
This year, more than 3.3 lakh students reportedly appeared for the Karnataka Common Entrance Test across many exam centres in Karnataka. The examination itself was carried out smoothly in April 2026.
