After getting postponed twice or thrice, CET counseling began on 14th of July. The Karnataka Examination Authority i.e the CET Cell has put an online real-time seat availability facility for the help of students attending the counseling. You can check this while you are at your home, preparing for counseling. The seat availability is also displayed on huge screens at the counseling venue also. So do not be tensed.

As soon as you get your CET rank, most of the you are in total dilemma and confusion over which college and branch to choose for your rank. If you are one of them, this post is just for YOU. The question arises – how to decide to choose a college when there are hundreds of engineering colleges in Karnataka.
• Will you get admission in good college or not?
• What will be the Cut off percentage of different colleges ?
• What are the different courses available in different colleges ?
• Which branch should I take ?
• Which college I will get for my rank ?
First things first, shortlist the colleges and the places that you like (keeping your rank in mind : having rank over 10k and expecting to get E&C in RVCE, that’s height of craziness). This is where Read more…

Here is a list of autonomous engineering colleges in Karnataka that have intake under CET. First things first, what’s an autonomous college or what is autonomy ?
Need for Autonomy :
The affiliating system of colleges was originally designed when their number in a university was small. The university could then effectively oversee the working of the colleges, act as an examining body and award degrees on their behalf. The system has now become unwieldy and it is becoming increasingly difficult for a university to attend to the varied needs of individual colleges. The colleges do not have the freedom to modernise their curricula or make them locally relevant. The regulations of the university and its common system, governing all colleges alike, irrespective of their characteristic strengths, weaknesses and locations, have affected the academic development of individual colleges. Colleges that have the potential for offering programmes of a higher standard do not have the freedom to offer them. Read more…
Students after getting CET results are not sure that in which college they may get a seat and in which branch. So I have put up the cutoff ranks of various top engineering colleges in Karnataka. The data is taken from 2007 CET counseling and there might be very slight difference in cutoff this year. However, the trend will remain the same.
I don’t have reservation under any category and hence cannot get Computer Science branch in any top engineering college. May be I should take Mechanics. Or if luck is on my side, nobody should take Computer as the IT industry has collapsed and there are thousands of job cuts. Hope it works that way 
The following cutoff ranks are with respect to General Merit (GM) seats only. Read more…
