KEAM Result 2024 Live: How the Engineering rank list will be prepared
Understanding the KEAM Rank List Preparation Process
The KEAM rank list is prepared based on the performance of candidates in the entrance examination. The rank list is divided into various categories, including General, SC, ST, OBC, and other reservations. The rank list is prepared by the CEE Kerala and is published on the official website, cee.kerala.gov.in.
Weightage of Marks
The KEAM rank list is calculated based on the weightage of marks obtained in the entrance examination. The weightage of marks is as follows:
- Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics: 50% (25% each)
- Biology (for Medical and Pharmacy): 50%
It is important to note that the KEAM entrance examination is a computer-based test, and the marks obtained by the candidates are calculated based on their performance in the examination.
Normalization of Marks
The CEE Kerala also follows a normalization process to ensure fairness in the rank list preparation. The normalization process is used to adjust the marks obtained by candidates in the KEAM entrance examination, taking into account the difficulty level of the question paper across different sessions.
The normalization formula is as follows:
Normalized Mark = (Candidate's Actual Mark - Minimum Mark in the Session) / (Maximum Mark in the Session - Minimum Mark in the Session) x 100
This normalization process ensures that the rank list is prepared based on the relative performance of the candidates, irrespective of the difficulty level of the question paper in their respective sessions.
Separate Rank Lists for Engineering and Architecture
The KEAM 2024 result will feature separate rank lists for the Engineering and Architecture streams. This means that the candidates will be ranked separately for the Engineering and Architecture programs, based on their performance in the respective sections of the entrance examination.
The CEE Kerala has announced that the NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture) score will be used for the preparation of the Architecture rank list. This means that the KEAM entrance examination score will be combined with the NATA score to determine the rank of the candidates for the Architecture programs.
The weightage of marks for the Architecture rank list will be as follows:
- KEAM Entrance Examination Score: 50%
- NATA Score: 50%
This integration of the NATA score ensures that the rank list for the Architecture programs accurately reflects the candidates' overall aptitude and performance, taking into account both their academic abilities and their design and creative skills.
Relaxation in Minimum Marks in the Qualifying Examination
The CEE Kerala has announced that there will be a relaxation in the minimum marks required in the qualifying examination for KEAM 2024. This means that the minimum marks required in the qualifying examination (Class 12 or equivalent) will be lower than the previous years.
The relaxation in minimum marks is as follows:
- General Category: 45% marks in the qualifying examination
- SC/ST Category: 40% marks in the qualifying examination
This relaxation in minimum marks will benefit a larger number of students, providing them with more opportunities to secure admission in the engineering, architecture, and medical programs in Kerala.
