BE an Agrarian # AGRICO

I got admission through KCET practical Quota i.e, ( we must have a farm land and either of parent is farmer in Karnataka are eligible for this Quota). Seperate practical exam is held for 200 marks with 50 questions with no negative marking . Questions like farm equipment , cattle , seeds , crop identification is given. Rank is decided as minimum 50% in practical exam+25%KCET PCMB + 25% II PUC PCMB marks as an aggregate is used to decide rank and this rank is given as AGRI. PRACTICAL RANK with additional with AGRI THEIRY ( this based on II PUC and KCET PCMB score only). Cutoff is decided on college-wise, category-wise, Quota wise. My AGRI PRACTICAL rank was 495 and my AGRI THEORY was 10,625.I claimed OBC-IIA quota and got my college in 2nd round of option entry. If you are within 500 practical ranks and From OBC then for sure you will get a seat but can't predict the college. Caste and Quota wise cut-off is very huge .

I was more interested to learn about nature and the environment so I opted for this degree. Per class, we have 70 students and per pratical batch around 30-35. Involves both interactive board and practical lecturer-based teaching, practical is more often held on fields based on course. Almost 99% of faculty have pursued a Doctorate and PhDs. The semester-based system with one semester upto5-6 months .each semester has 2 internal exam ( 25/30 marks Midterm +20 marks practical with manual) and one external for 50 marks and attendance for 5 marks for each course. Courses are easy to pass if we update ourselves with classes and follow the mentioned syllabus and attend practicals regularly . Our institution has strict evaluation.
