What the First Round Mock allotment cutoff tells you

In the First Round Mock allotment, KEA runs a trial fill from the options students have entered so far. The closing rank for each college, branch and category is the rank of the last student allotted that seat — a concrete read on demand. Cutoffs move from year to year, so treat the mock as an early demand signal for shaping your 2026 option list rather than a fixed line.

Five ways to use this tool

The College Predictor lists every college and branch your rank reached, sorted safest first, and adds a ±25% borderline band so you can also see options just out of reach that may open up in a later round. Branch Ranking fixes one branch and one category and ranks every college that offers it, so you can see the pecking order. College Profile shows one college’s full grid — every branch against all 37 categories. The Cutoff Explorer reads a single college + branch across all 37 categories — General Merit (incl. GMP), categories 1, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, the SC groups (1–4) and ST, each in General, Rural and Kannada-medium variants, plus NRI, Open and Other.

Read your own category, not just General Merit

Reserved-category cutoffs usually close at a higher rank number than GM for the same college and branch, so always select your exact category. In the Explorer and College Profile, a blank cell means that category had no first-round cutoff for that branch — often because no seat was allotted there in this round.

Turning the Mock allotment into a 2026 option order

Put the choices you genuinely want most at the top of your KEA option list. Then balance the rest using your results: a few ambitious options (closing rank a little tighter than your rank — the upper half of the ±25% band), several safe ones (around your rank), and backups (well below). Selections from any tab collect in the Option List at the bottom, which you can reorder and print. Confirm every figure against the official KEA list before you submit.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is the projected closing rank for each college, branch and category in KEA’s 2026 First Round Mock allotment — a trial run before real option entry. Mock figures are indicative and change once real allotment begins.

When you turn the band on, the predictor also shows options whose closing rank is within 25% of your rank on either side. Those tighter than your rank are realistic later-round targets; those looser are comfortable safe bets. It widens your shortlist without pretending a tighter option is guaranteed.

A blank cell means there was no first-round cutoff for that category in that college and branch — usually because no seat was allotted there in this round, or the category was not offered for that course.
