My admission process was thorough KEAM exam. A good score below 25000 can get you into this collage. If you are CBSE student, a deduction of marks can be observed. So the KEAM is more beneficial for Kerala State students
Dislikes

KEAM is the Kerala entrance examination we have to score above 50% for both papers. Also if your last rank matches with the college you get admitted. Lateral entry is there for diploma students. Keam is not a tough level exam.

This college admits students based on their keam rank. It is through the KEAM allotment process. It is a fairly simple process not too complicated. We have two internal exams and an end semester exam every semester which is good.

The admission process went well. I wrote the KEAM examination in which I got around 25 K rank . Still it was the reservation which made me come here. Without reservation I maynot be having a olace in this college. There ie no need of improvement in the admission areas it all well and perfect.
