KEAM 2025 Result

KEAM 2025 Final Answer Keys Expected Soon; Result by May 10

The Commissioner for Entrance Examinations will release the KEAM final answer key 2025 soon. As per the schedule intimated by CEE, KEAM 2025 scores will be out by May 10. It is expected that before the scores are released, CEE will release the final KEAM 2025 answer keys. The KEAM 2025 provisional answer keys were released on April 29. Challenges/objections against the KEAM 2025 provisional answer keys/question papers were invited until May 3.  CEE will scrutinise the objections received, and a final KEAM answer key will be released. Based on the answers in the KEAM final answer key, the KEAM 2025 result will be prepared.

CEE to Declare KEAM Scores by May 10

CEE will release the KEAM 2025 score on or before May 10. On May 10, CEE will first declare the normalised scores of the candidates in KEAM. Note that only the KEAM scores will not form the basis of admissions. The candidates who will have valid KEAM scores will be asked to submit their class marks. The final scores that will be used for ranking and seat allocation will be out of 600.

The KEAM 2025 scores will be scaled down to 300, and the class 12 marks will also be scaled down to 300. The final KEAM 2025 rank list will be prepared based on the standardised scores of class 12 and scaled KEAM 2025 scores, with a 50:50 weightage given to both scores in the preparation of the KEAM engineering rank list. The final scoring for the KEAM engineering rank list generation will be out of 600. 

Thus, candidates have to submit their Class 12 marks to be included in the KEAM rank list. The final KEAM rank list will be out by June 10.

Minimum Marks Needed to Qualify KEAM 2025

To qualify in the Engineering Entrance Examination and thereby become eligible to figure in the Engineering rank list, a candidate must secure a minimum normalised score of 10 out of 300 in the Engineering Entrance Examination. The candidates who do not secure the minimum stipulated score will not find a place in the rank list.  For SC/ST candidates, there is no requirement for a minimum score in the Engineering Entrance Examination. However, the candidates who fail to answer at least one question will be disqualified. The same criteria is set for the Pharmacy candidates.
