BENGALURU: Complaints of miscommunication and technical glitches poured in after KCET results were announced on Saturday. The problem began when II PU repeater students - who were promoted in 2021 on the basis of class 10 and I PU scores - found that their II PU marks were not taken into account to decide their CET ranks.
KEA had announced this year that ranks of CET candidates would be announced by considering 50 per cent PU marks and 50 per cent CET scores. It was not the same last year as PU exams were cancelled due to the pandemic, and CET ranks were announced based on KCET-2021 scores. The decision to give weightage to both PU and CET marks has led to a considerable drop in the ranks of repeaters.
