Kerala Engineering Agricultural Medical Entrance Examination Cut Off
KEAM Cutoff 2025
The KEAM Cutoff is the minimum score required for admission to engineering, architecture, pharmacy, and medical programs in Kerala. The cutoff is released by the office of the Commissioner of Entrance Exam (CEE) after each round of KEAM seat allotment 2025.
Students who secure a rank under 300 can expect admission to CSE at the College of Engineering, Thiruvananthapuram. Last year, the closing rank for CSE in KEAM reached 271.
A rank around 550 got CSE at the government Engineering College Thrissur. A rank of 1,100 was required for TKM College of Engineering, Kollam. Candidates up to the rank of 2,000 achieved CSE in institutes like Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Kittayam.
For branches like Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, students with ranks between 2,000 and 8,000 secured seats in mid-tier colleges. Last year, Mechanical Engineering at CET closed at 3426, and Civil Engineering at 5,587.
- For B.Pharma, the cutoff rank was high; government colleges accept a rank up to 15,000-20,000, depending upon the category.
- In Architecture, admissions are based on NATA scores, top colleges require a rank under 3,000 for admissions.

KEAM Passing Marks
The KEAM passing marks determine eligibility for rank lists, counselling, and seat allotment. There are no fixed passing marks in KEAM, but candidates must meet a minimum criterion.
What are the KEAM passing marks?
Candidates must score at least 10 marks in each paper to be considered for the rank list. The criteria are as follows:
- Candidates must score at least 10 marks in each paper (Paper 1: Physics & Chemistry, Paper 2: Mathematics) to be considered for the rank list.
- Scoring less than 10 marks in any paper means the result will not be included in the engineering rank list. SC/ST candidates are exempted from this marking scheme.
- If the minimum mark criteria are met, Class 12 PCM marks will affect whether the candidate is in the rank list or not.
What are the qualifying marks for KEAM?
The qualifying marks for KEAM vary by category. The details are given below.
| Candidate Category | Minimum Marks per Paper (Expected) | Rank List Eligibility |
|---|---|---|
| General/OBC | 10 marks each in Paper I & II | Yes, if the criteria are met |
| SC/ST | No minimum required | Yes |
| PwD | Same as category criteria | Yes |
KEAM Good Score
A good score in the KEAM exam depends on the branch and category. Engineering branches like CSE, ECE, and EE require a higher score for admission, while the score requirement for Pharmacy is low.
Good Score in KEAM 2025
The Engineering paper in KEAM carries 600 marks (Physics + Chemistry + Mathematics). An approximate good score for the top engineering courses is given below.
- CSE in CET/Thrissur/MEC: 480+
- ECE in CET/Thrissur/MEC: 450+
- EEE in TKM, GEC: 420+
- Mechanical/Civil in Tier-1 Govt. Colleges: 380+
The good score for B.Pharma can range as follows:
- For top colleges: 400+
- For good self-financing colleges: 350+
- Minimum for admission: 280–300+
| Score Range (Out of 600) | What It Means |
|---|---|
| 500+ | Excellent – Top 5,000 rank possible |
| 450 – 499 | Eligible for top Govt. colleges (like CET) |
| 400 – 449 | Good – May get top branches in second-tier colleges |
| 300 – 399 | Average – Entry into private colleges |
| Below 300 | May struggle for core branches in reputed colleges |
Safe Score in KEAM 2025
A safe score in KEAM 2025 can range 480-520+ for CET, 420-460 for government colleges of Kerala, and 400-450 for TKM/MCEC. The safe score for KEAM 2025 is listed below.
| College Type | Safe Score Range |
|---|---|
| CET Trivandrum (CSE) | 480 – 520+ |
| Govt. Colleges (ECE/EEE/ME) | 420 – 460+ |
| TKM/MEC (Top Private-Aided) | 400 – 450+ |
| Private Self-Financed (CSE) | 350 – 400+ |
| General Entry (any stream) | 300+ |
Is 300 a Good Score in KEAM?
A score of 300 in KEAM (out of 600) is considered a moderate score. This score may not guarantee admission to top government colleges or highly sought-after branches like CSE, but it still offers admission chances in:
- Private self-financing colleges for branches like ECE, Mechanical, or even CSE in later rounds.
- Government colleges for reserved categories, especially in lower-demand branches.
- It can also lead to better ranks if Class 12 PCM marks are strong, as the final rank considers 50% KEAM + 50% board marks.
Colleges with 300 Marks in KEAM (Expected 2025)
| College Name | Possible Branches | Admission Type |
|---|---|---|
| Rajagiri School of Engineering, Kochi | ECE, Mechanical, Civil, possibly CSE (last rounds) | Private Self-Financing |
| Mar Athanasius College of Engg., Kothamangalam | Mechanical, EEE, Civil | Govt.-Aided (Reserved chance) |
| SCMS School of Engineering, Kochi | CSE, ECE, IT (available in later rounds) | Private Self-Financing |

| Christ College of Engineering, Irinjalakuda | ME, EEE, ECE | Private Self-Financing |
| Government Engineering College, Wayanad | Civil, EEE (if reserved) | Govt. (Reserved only) |
Is 200 a Good Score in KEAM?
A score of 200 out of 600 in KEAM is considered below average for students in the General category. With this score, it is difficult to get admission in government engineering colleges for core branches.
- Admission may be possible in self-financing private colleges, in non-core or less in-demand branches.
- Reserved category students (SC/ST/OBC) may still get into government colleges, but in low-demand branches.
