Admission:

Eligibility was based on KEAM entrance marks with cutoff of 10marks. 12th grade marks of physics ,chemistry , maths is also important for availing scholarship.The frequency of exams should be adjusted as insufficency in time occurs during end of semester in completing portions creating pressure in students.

Admission:

I took JEE as well as KEAM entrance exams. I passed in all these exams. I didn't get good rank in JEE because I didn't go to any kind of coaching centres. But in KEAM exam , I secured a rank of 11002 but I didn't got to any coaching centres as mentioned before. Then when the allotment came , my first option was GEC Thrissur , second was Vidya Academy. I got GEC for mechanical engineering but I lacked interest in it so I chose Vidya and pursued Computer Science in it. The entrance exams were really hard to crack. But I only learnt only two chapters in mathematics for my KEAM exam and I cracked it . The admission took me like 3-4 hours because there were lot of students for admission.

Admission:

There is a lot of process during admission. We have to meet different departments of college. To qualify to Btech with a normal fees we have to qualify the entrance exam called KEAM. it consists of two paper, one include physics and chemistry, second one is maths paper. We have to score 10 marks in each paper. Exam was not too hard,i should tell its a moderate one. We have to register for this entrance exam through online and i think the registration fees is around 300 or 200 something.
