JEE Main Process

The counseling process for JEE Main is conducted online, which is pretty convenient for the candidates, whereas KCET counseling is conducted in offline mode. Unlike KCET JEE Main counseling is centralized, and the seat allotment is done based on the candidate's All India Rank. This means that you can get admission to your preferred college anywhere in India based on your JEE Main rank. On the other hand, KCET counseling process and seat allotment are conducted by the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA), where the mock seat allotment helps the candidates understand the chances of admission based on their rank and choice preference. So, if you're aiming to get admission to a college in Karnataka, KCET can be an excellent option for you. Therefore, the counseling processes and seat allotment of JEE Main and KCET differ in terms of mode of counseling and seat allotment process. It's crucial to stay updated and well-informed about the process to make the most of your opportunities and secure your spot in your dream college.
