Hello,

Yes, you should have minimum of 70-80 to get below 15,000. The 12 th class marks also matters a lot so, it should be minimum of 50 % and 50% in KCET. If you score good marks there is high chance of getting admission for your preferred course. The cut off usually varies from university to university .

So basically, you don't need to consider the marks for result and should more focus on number of questions you attempted with more accuracy. But wou need to get minimum 135 marks out of 180 marks
