Among the four options provided against a question, only one answer will be correct. The
candidate should mark the correct answer by completely shading only one circle against a question
number, using BLUE or BLACK ink ball point pen. More details about precautions to be taken while
filling the particulars on OMR answer sheet is given below. The OMR answer sheet comprises of two
sheets. The top sheet will be used for the purpose of marking correct answers and later scanning &
evaluation and the bottom sheet will be returned to the candidates after completion of the test. The
bottom sheet is coated with a special kind of chemical which acts as Carbon. When the candidate fills
the circleson the top sheet, the pressureonthe bottom sheetwill automatically createa replicaofthe
topsheet.

THINK BEFORE YOU INK !

Once you darken a circle, there is no way to erase or
to remove it. That way, your decision about a correct
answer will be final. The invigilator will not permit you
to use marker, white fluid or any other devise to hide
the shading already done and you will not be supplied
with one more set of OMR sheet. If you spoil a sheet
in your attempt to rub off the shading done on a circle,
you may ruin your opportunities. If two circles are
shaded in a row and even if one of the circles is
partially rubbed off, the scanner will take it as a
multiple attempt. Therefore, think twice before you
shade a circle with ink. Darken only one circle for
each question as shown against the CORRECT
METHOD.
CORRECT METHOD OF SHADING

NOTE ON MOCK ALLOTMENT
After the entry of options are completed, based on the real data mock allotment will be carried
out and the allotment status will be hosted on the KEA website for the information of the candidates.
Two days time will be given to the candidates to verify the status of their allotment. Here, the candidate
after ascertaining college and course allotted, if he / she wants to change / modify his / her options can
do so within the stipulated date and time. Then based on the modified entry of options the real
allotment will be carried out.
WHY DO WE CONDUCT MOCK ALLOTMENT?

Based on the Mock Allotment a candidate can know his / her status of allotment as per his / her
priority of options. This gives a clear view to the candidate to change or retain the entered options.
Candidate can come to know that the other candidate with lower merit has got seat which he was
eligible but for his not entering that option. Therefore, candidates will be given one more choice to
change the priority of options, deletion of or addition of options.
Due to change in the options by candidates after Mock Allotment, one may not get the same
seat in the real allotment as was allotted in the mock allotment.
Candidates Options Entry

1st Phase of allotment of seats:

1st Phase
i) Allotment of seats to all the disciplines as per the seat

matrix issued by the Government.
(a) Physcially Disabled candidates
(b) NCC candidates
(c) Sports Candidates
ii) Allotment of seats to Engineering
iii) Allotment of seats to Architectur
Based on the merit and priority of options the first phase of allotment begins. The computer will
first allot the seats in the above mentioned order and continues in the same order. While allotting the
seats in the 1st Phase at any stage, the seat allotted if any, will automatically get cancelled upon
allotment of a seat in the subsequent discipline and such cancelled seat will be considered for allotment
of a seat in the next iteration.
Therefore, multiple iterations may take place in the 1st Phase. The computer will stop the
allotment only if the last seat is allotted or when it reaches the last rank in each discipline. That means
the candidates will always be climbing upwards both in options and in roster. The order of allotment as
shown above will get repeated in the 1st phase until there is no change in the allotment of any
candidate.
2nd Phase of allotment.

After allotment of seats in the first phase, action will be taken to allot the seats for the 2nd phase
allotment of seats. After completion of the 1st Phase of allotment of seats, the seats that remain unfilled
under all the Rural and Kannada medium quota of the reserved categories will be converted to General
of the respective reserved categories (SCR & SCK to SCG, STR & STK to STG, 1R & 1K to 1G, 2AR
& 2AK to 2AG, 2BR & 2BK to 2BG, 3AR & 3AK to 3AG, 3BR & 3BK to 3BG) before the
commencement of 2nd Phase and offered ONLY to the reserved category candidates including GMR &
GMK category candidates. Consequential vacancies which arise during this allotment of seats will remain
in the same category and will be offered to the same reserved category candidates.
In this phase only reserved category candidates will be considered for allotment and GM
candidates will not be considered. Further, GM and SNQ seats will also be not considered for allotment
of seats.
IMPORTANT:
This procedure for conversion of seats will be adopted before the commencement of 2nd Phase of
allotment. Further, if the reserved category candidates are allotted with a General Merit /
respective reserved category seat during the 2nd phase of allotment, then a reserved category seat
becomes vacant. Such seats are treated as CONSEQUENTIAL VACANCIES. These
consequential reserved category vacancies that arise during the 2nd phase of allotment will remain
under the same categories and will be offered only to the candidates belonging to the same
reserved categories.
NOTE: All GM consequential vacancies which arise in this phase will be considered for allotment in
the 3rd Phase of allotment.
In this phase also, the order of seat allotment remains same which is as follows:
2nd Phase
:
Matrix issued by the Government.
(b) NCC candidates
iii) Allotment of seats to Architecture
Based on the merit and priority of options the second phase of allotment begins. The computer
will first allot the seats in the above mentioned order and continues in the same order. While allotting
the seats in the 2nd Phase at any stage, the seat allotted if any, will be released automatically upon
allotment of a seat in the subsequent discipline and such released seat will be considered for allotment of
a seat in the next iteration.
Therefore, many iterations may take place in the 2nd Phase also. The computer will stop the
allotment only if the last seat is allotted or when it reaches the last rank in each discipline. That means
the candidate will always be climbing upwards both in options and roster. The order of allotment as
shown above will get repeated in the 2nd Phase until there is no change in the allotment of any
candidate.
3rd Phase of Allotment of seats:
After the allotment of seats in the second phase of allotment, the seats that remain unfilled
under various reserved General categories such as SCG, STG, 1G, 2AG, 2BG, 3AG, 3BG, GMR and
GMK, along with unfilled special category seats, if any, will be converted to the General Merit category
and offered to GM candidates along with all other reserved category candidates in the 3rd Phase of
allotment. However, the consequential Rural and Kannada medium reserved category seats that arise
during the 3rd Phase of allotment and if remains un-allotted then the same seat will be converted to the
General of the respective reserved categories only if there are no seats in the respective general category
and will be made available for allotment only to the respective reserved category candidates during 3rd
Phase of allotment.
In this round also, the order of seat allotment remains same which is as follows:
:
3rd Phase
Matrix issued by the Government.
(b) NCC candidates
v) Allotment of seats to Architecture
All the candidates will be considered for allotment of seats in this iteration. Before
commencement of 3rd phase the computer will display the number of seats that got allotted in each
discipline, total number of candidates allotted and the number of seats remained unfilled and number of
candidates un-allotted.
While allotting the seats in the 3rd Phase at any stage, the seat allotted if any, will be
automatically released upon allotment of a seat in subsequent stage and such released seat will be
considered for allotment of a seat in the next iteration.
Based on the merit and priority of options the third phase of allotment begins. The computer
will first allot the seats in the above mentioned order and continues in the same order. While allotting
the seats in the 3rd Phase at any stage, the seat allotted if any, will be released automatically upon
allotment of a seat in the subsequent discipline and such released seat will be considered for allotment of
a seat in the next iteration.
Therefore, many iterations may take place in the 3rd Phase also. The computer will stop the allotment
only if the last seat is allotted or when it reaches the last rank in each discipline. That means the
candidate will always be climbing upwards both in options and roster. The order of allotment as shown
above will get repeated in the 3rd Phase until there is no change in the allotment of any candidate
Speciality of 3rd Phase of allotment is, after completion of last stage of allotment of seats, the seats
remained unallotted if any, in any reserved category will be converted to GM automatically and will be
offered to all the eligible candidates from 1st to last rank based on the priority of options entered. That
means repetition of phase 3 allotment process will take place. Phase 3 allotment stops only when there
is no seat in reserved category and no change in the allotment.
Summary:
This illustrates that at each stage, the options are getting shrunk before moving to the next stage,
if seats are allotted. If seats are not allotted, the options list remains unchanged.
The seats which are returned back to seat matrix in the process of allotment stages will be allotted to the
next candidate as per rank and options. This way there will be a number of iterations till the candidate
gets the best seat of his choice governed by rank. This means, the system halts allotment when no seats
are available for a candidate as per his options.
All the steps taken together as detailed above will form one round and the stages mentioned
above, are known as iteration stage / phase. The iteration stage in each round will go on as long as the
choice of the candidate is not fulfilled or the availability seat is not exhausted. In this way each
candidate may get either a Medical seat or an Engineering seat or ISMH seat as per his/her rank and
priority in the respective disciplines. However it is possible that if all seats are exhausted then a
candidate might not be allotted a seat at all. Therefore it is very important to candidates to give their
options very carefully and after considerable thought and after discussing with their parents and elders.
If by chance the options given by the candidate is not well thought he may lose a seat in a good college
as he may not have given option for that particular college or would have given lower options. For
example a candidate is interested in college A, but by mistake or by oversight he has given a lower
preference for that college and has given higher preference for some other college. The computer then
will allot a seat as per his rank and as per his higher priorities. In this way he may tend to lose a seat in
the college of his choice merely because he has not given a correct priority of options.
The iteration stage starts with Medical/Dental seats, and goes on till the Medical seats is
exhausted or choice of candidate is exhausted. Similarly in the 2nd iteration stage the choice of the
candidates in ISMH discipline is considered and in the 3rd iteration stage the choice of candidates in
Engineering is considered and finally the 4th iteration stage the choice of the candidate for Architecture
discipline is considered. If the candidate has given his first choice as Engineering and 2nd choice as
Medical then in the 1st stage of iteration the Medical seat at option no.2 will be considered and a
Medical seat will be allotted to him as per his priority and rank if seats are available. So in the 1st
iteration the candidate will get a Medical seat and immediately in the Engineering iteration stage the
candidate will be allotted the Engineering seat as per his rank and priority by cancelling the Medical seat
as the first priority is engineering. The Medical seat so cancelled will be added to seat matrix of the
same college and category and allotted to the next candidate as per his/her rank and priority. Therefore
the candidate ultimately gets the seats of his choice/priority. In the final analysis the candidate gets the
best of the best seats of his choice.
After the entire iteration of all the discipline in all the three phase is complete the final list will
be announced on the website and this is known as the First Round. Therefore, many iterations may take
place in one round as per the choice of the candidate and as per the availability of seats. The candidate
can track down the movement of seats in the different iteration stages to satisfy himself that the best of
the choices is allotted to him. Virtual tracking of the process of allotment by the computer can be
viewed by the candidate after allotment. This ensures transparency in the entire allotment stage and
KEA is known for its motto Trust Through Total Transparency. The final list of the First Round will be
hosted on the website, in the Helpline Centres and individual allotment will be sent by SMS, e-mail and
the candidates are requested to note the allotment of seats to them in the First Round. The candidate
here has 4 choices. The choices are: POST SEAT ALLOTMENT PROCEDURE CHOICES BEFORE A CANDIDATE
