Answered from verified records — official closing ranks. Not written by students. How we verify data.

Which college is hardest to get into for Computer Science & Engineering?
Of 42 colleges with verified Karnataka PGCET figures, R V College of Engineering in Bengaluru Urban closed tightest at General Merit rank 60. A tighter rank means more candidates wanted that seat — it is not a measure of teaching.
What Karnataka PGCET rank do I need for Computer Science & Engineering?
There is no single number. Across 42 colleges the General Merit closing rank ranged from 60 to 8,340 in 2025, so the seat you can reach depends on which colleges you are willing to attend. The spread within one branch is usually wider than the gap between branches.
Where in Karnataka can I study Computer Science & Engineering?
Colleges with verified Karnataka PGCET closing ranks for Computer Science & Engineering are spread across 11 cities. Colleges that admit only through their own entrance test do not appear here — that is an absence of official data, not of the college.
