Mobile phones, calculators, smart watches and other electronic devices are not allowed in the hall.
Mark answers on the OMR sheet as the instructions say; there is no negative marking, so do not leave answers you can work out.
Keep the admission ticket safe after the exam. You need your CET number for the result and counselling.

Before the exam, practise with the KCET previous year papers in 80-minute sittings.

KCET Admit Card 2027 FAQs

Will KEA send the KCET admit card by post?

No. The admission ticket is only available online, and you must download and print it yourself.

Use the forgot-password option on the KEA login page, or contact the KEA helpline listed on cetonline.karnataka.gov.in/kea. Keep your application number ready.
