I got into Colege of Engineering Trivandrum in the year 2015. The admission procedure for the college follows the entrance examination common to all the state government engineering colleges in the state, the Kerala Engineering and Medical Entrance Examination KEAM. You have to be in the top ranks to be admitted to the college. My rank in the KEAM 2015 exam was 1462. I only got into the college in the third round of allotment. However, the departments like Computer Science, Electrical and Electronics, Mechanical and Electronics and Communication Engineering have a lower threshold for admitting students.
To get an admission in Malabar College of engineering and Technology either you have to get a decent rank in KEAM entrance exam that is conducted at all Kerala level then you have to only pay the government fees or you can pay the management fee and join there. I personally appeared for KEAM but i was not able to get a good rank so i JUST paid the management fee.
The general academic requirements state that the candidate who have passed Higher Secondary Examination, Kerala, or Examinations recognized as equivalent thereto, with 45% marks in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry. The selection of the candidates is made on the basis of the marks secured in KEAM. Candidates should qualify (a minimum of 10 marks each in Paper I and Paper II) in the Engineering Entrance Exam conducted by the Commissioner of Entrance Exams, Govt. of Kerala(KEAM) and should be listed in KEAM Rank List.
Highly recommended college for everyone, the college is having the best faculty members and facilities needed by any student. The eligibility criteria start by passing KEAM entrance test.
The eligibility criteria are very easy as for admission is based on KEAM entrance exams and also there are management quotas where you will get admission if you score a 60% in your school level.
You have to qualify KEAM exam to join the college. The cutoff is around 120/500. You have to write KEAM.
I got the admission to NSS COLLEGE in 2017.I wrote KEAM Entrance exam for getting admission and got 40000 rank.The college gave the admission by reservation category.There the admission procedures are simple, JUST 3 step.First, filling the form that includes your personal details.
The eligibility criteria are JUST KEAM and 12th. If you have more than 60% in class 12, and a KEAM rank not higher than INR 50k, you will do excellent here. When other colleges take only the best as it's inmates and vomit them out the way they are, this place takes in students from a wide range of academic, financial and family backgrounds, and help them graduate with the best set of skills one can basically hope for. The necessary entrance exam to appear for is KEAM. Having a better rank in KEAM will lead to a high amount of fee reduction. The maximum number of intakes for this course vary from 60-120, depending on the branch.
Eligibility for the admission is to pass the entrance examination as per Kerala syllabus and you should be able to pay their management fee KEAM-Kerala Engineering Architecture Medical Entrance Exam is the entrance examination You must score every subject more than 10 marks so you are eligible for getting admission in any management college Kerala.
