Over 3.3 lakh students who appeared for the Karnataka Common Entrance Test conducted on April 22, 23, and 24, 2026 are waiting for their rank cards, which determine entry into engineering, pharmacy, agriculture, veterinary, and other professional undergraduate programmes across Karnataka.
The delay in result declaration was due to the rescheduled Agriculture Practical Examination at Hiriyur, which was held on June 1, 2026. KEA confirmed that results would follow immediately after all examination components were completed.
