KEAM 2026 mark vs rank analysis helps candidates estimate their expected rank based on marks or percentile score. Candidates must note that KEAM rank depends on multiple factors, including entrance exam score, normalization, Class 12 marks, paper difficulty level, category and total number of qualified candidates.
| KEAM 2026 Percentile Score | Expected KEAM 2026 Marks | Expected KEAM 2026 Rank Range |
|---|---|---|
| >99 | >458 | 1-813 |
| 95-99 | 294-458 | 814-4078 |

Note: The above KEAM marks vs rank data is indicative. Final ranks may vary depending on normalization, Class 12 score weightage and official rank list preparation rules.
The KEAM Engineering rank list is prepared by giving equal weightage to the KEAM entrance examination score and Class 12 marks. The Engineering rank list is prepared by combining 50% normalized KEAM entrance score and 50% normalized qualifying examination marks.
| Component | Weightage |
|---|---|
| Normalized KEAM Engineering Entrance Score | 50% |
| Normalized Class 12 Marks in Required Subjects | 50% |
| Final Engineering Rank | Based on Combined Score |
Because of this weightage system, candidates with similar KEAM entrance scores may get different ranks depending on their normalized Class 12 marks. Therefore, candidates should use KEAM College Predictor 2026 only after checking their official rank.
Some of the participating colleges in KEAM counselling are:

Some of the top Engineering colleges accepting KEAM scores are provided below. Candidates must note that the cutoff changes every year depending on the number of applicants, seat matrix, category, branch demand and counselling round.
| College Name | Popular Course | Average Fees |
|---|---|---|
| B.Tech Computer Science Engineering / B.Arch | INR 43,250 Total Fees | |
| B.Tech / B.Arch | INR 22,150 1st Year Fees | |
| B.Tech / B.Arch | INR 8,410 1st Year Fees | |
| B.Tech Computer Science Engineering | INR 45,000 1st Year Fees | |
| Mar Athanasius College of Engineering - [MACE], Kothamangalam | B.Tech Computer Science Engineering | INR 8,225 1st Year Fees |
| B.Tech / B.Arch | INR 21,000 1st Year Fees | |
| B.Tech Computer Science Engineering | INR 1,00,500 1st Year Fees | |
| Sree Chitra Thirunal College of Engineering - [SCTCE], Thiruvananthapuram | B.Tech Computer Science Engineering | INR 1,02,030 1st Year Fees |

Candidates should not rely only on one or two top colleges while filling KEAM counselling choices. A better strategy is to divide the college preference list into safe, moderate and ambitious options.
| Option Type | Meaning | How to Use in KEAM Option Entry |
|---|---|---|
| Ambitious Options | Colleges or branches where previous closing ranks are better than your rank | Add top preferred colleges and branches at the beginning of the list |
| Moderate Options | Colleges or branches where previous closing ranks are close to your rank | Add multiple realistic choices to improve allotment chances |
| Safe Options | Colleges or branches where previous closing ranks are lower than your rank range | Add backup colleges to avoid missing a seat in allotment rounds |
Branch preference plays an important role in KEAM college prediction. Courses like Computer Science Engineering, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Electronics and Communication Engineering and Data Science generally have higher demand. Therefore, their closing ranks are usually more competitive than branches like Civil, Mechanical or Production Engineering in many colleges.
| Branch | Admission Competition | Prediction Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Computer Science Engineering | Very High | Requires better rank, especially in government colleges |
| Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning | High | Closing ranks may be competitive in top colleges |
| Electronics and Communication Engineering | High to Moderate | Good option for candidates with ranks slightly lower than CSE cutoffs |
| Electrical and Electronics Engineering | Moderate | Available in many government and aided colleges |
| Mechanical Engineering | Moderate | Can offer better chances at mid-level ranks |
| Civil Engineering | Moderate to Low | May be available at comparatively lower ranks in many colleges |
KEAM cutoffs vary by category and reservation status. Candidates belonging to reserved categories must check category-wise closing ranks before finalizing counselling options. KEAM College Predictor 2026 considers category trends to provide more relevant college suggestions.
The last rank shows the rank of the last candidate allotted to a particular college, course and category in a specific round. Candidates can use this data to understand whether their rank is close to the previous allotment trend.
