Artificial Intelligence & ML: 1H cut-off — Category 1 — Kalyana-Karnataka

KCET 1H closing ranks across 18 colleges, 2025 and 2026.

The most competitive Artificial Intelligence & ML seat in this category closed at 18,601 (CMR Institute of Technology). The same branch closed at 1,650 under General Merit. Both are KCET ranks for the same year, so they can be read side by side — but a 1H rank is not the same number as your overall rank.

Final-round Category 1 — Kalyana-Karnataka closing ranks from the official KCET publications — how we verify data. A college missing here did not have a 1H seat close in the published rounds; that is an absence of data, not of the college. What 1H category means.
