KCET-2021, II PUC annual results out, document verification from Sep 30. Assessment of performance has been done based on the revised key answers (prepared by subject experts) hosted on KEA website http://kea.kar.nic.in. After the generation of the merit list for different courses the number of eligible candidates has been earmarked, he said.

“Document verification process will begin on September 30 in the facilitation centres set up in all the district headquarters. Results of around 7,000 students have been withheld, the major reason being the non-submission of marks cards by over 6,000 students. Candidates need to keep their original documents ready and details of the original documents required for processing of verification are hosted on the KEA website. Documents shall be verified through online verification software in facilitation centres.”

The results are published in KEA website and candidates can also browse and download the subject-wise evaluation reports from the website.
