The KCET 2026 Chemistry paper was overall moderate to difficult level. Many students found it tougher to 2025/2024 session, some even compared it to JEE Main. The paper shifted more towards statement-based and assertion-reasoning questions. The paper was less formula-based and more conceptual. A high volume of questions were from the I PUC (Class 11) syllabus. There were questions from Organic Chemistry alongside Physical Chemistry which were considered time-consuming. A score of 40-50 is considered decent, while 50+ is excellent.
