8 years agoHello Likhitha,
You can take exam. But can you elucidate as to why you have doubt? If you have appeared last year and could not get admission then it means you are aware of your weaknesses. This year, I hope, while preparing for this exam you have reviewed weak areas and studied them.
Best wishes.

No, the KCET verification slip is not solely for engineering candidates. It's a document required for all candidates participating in the KCET (Karnataka Common Entrance Test) counselling process, including those seeking MBBS and other courses. The verification slip is generated after document verification and confirms that a candidate's documents and eligibility have been reviewed by the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA). It is essential for all candidates to download and keep this slip safe as it is needed for the counselling process, including choice filling and seat allotment
