KEAM 2026 Rank List & Merit Preparation
The KEAM engineering rank list is prepared using a 50:50 weightage formula, combining KEAM entrance exam scores and Class 12 marks in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry. Candidates who fail to submit Plus Two marks within the specified deadline may not be included in the final rank list.
CEE Kerala has also clarified that engineering aspirants must secure a minimum normalized score of 10 to qualify for the engineering rank list. However, this rule does not apply to SC and ST candidates.
Expected Cut-Off & Admission Chances
The KEAM cut-off changes every year depending on factors like seat availability, difficulty level of the exam, and number of applicants. Based on previous trends:
- Under 1,000 Rank – Excellent admission chances
- Under 5,000 Rank – Very good chances
- 5,000 – 15,000 Rank – Good chances in many colleges
- Above 20,000 Rank – Admission possible in several institutions
After the declaration of results and rank lists, the KEAM counselling and centralized allotment process will begin for admission into engineering, pharmacy, architecture, and related professional courses across Kerala colleges. Students are advised to regularly check the official portal for the latest notifications and counselling schedules.
