KEA’s mock allotment in professional courses shows government PU college and ICSE Board students doing poorly in Karnataka

The KEA, which has launched the admission process for professional courses for the year 2024, has recently published the second round of mock seat allotment result. The first round of seat allotment results will be announced on September 1.

The second-round of mock seat allotment results, published by the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) for admission to professional courses, including engineering and medical, for the year 2024, shows students from government pre-university colleges and Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) Board schools doing poorly compared to their Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) counterparts.

Strikingly, no student of any government PU college has not got a seat in the first 1,000 seats in medical courses. When first 2,000 seats are considered, only three seats were secured by students of government colleges.

The performance of ICSE Board students is even poorer, with only one student securing a seat among the first 2,000 in medical courses.

In contrast, the performance of students of CBSE is good, and they have got nine medical seats among the first 500.

The KEA, which has launched the admission process for professional courses for the year 2024, has recently published the second round of mock seat allotment result. The first round of seat allotment results will be announced on September 1.

Out of the first 500 seats of 10 professional courses, including engineering and medical, students of government colleges have secured a total of 201 seats. They got seats in architecture (51), B-Pharma (14), engineering (18), B.Sc Nursing (8), ISMH (AYUSH) (13), B.Sc (Agri) (14), Veterinary Science (Practical) (37), B-Tech (Agri) (38), and BV.Sc. (8). They did not get any seats in the medical course.

ICSE Board students bagged only 28 seats in the first 500 seats in all courses. Out of this, 16 were in Architecture, 2 in B-Pharma, 3 in Engineering, 2 in B.Sc Nursing, 1 in ISMH, 2 in B.Sc (Agri) and 2 in BV.Sc. However, in Veterinary Science (Practical) and B-Tech (Agri) courses, not a single seat was secured in the first 1,000 seats.
