It is not considered a problem for open/ general category students, as they are used to deal with such a situation. In the state governed colleges, one could expect to get admission, however, the situation is worse when it comes to the private colleges. In all the private colleges, a certain number of seats is reserved under the management quota and these seats could vary from 10% to 50% of the total seats under this quota. The seats are limited, however, the students appearing for these courses are too high. The price for each management seat is high, therefore, it becomes difficult or impossible for a student from a middle-class background to get admission in their dream college or their desired course.
Also, at the time of counselling for this exam, if the score and other things of two students are the same then the preference is given to the state students only. Hence, students must focus on clearing the entrance exam like COMEDK with high scores to get admission without any quota.
