KEAM 2024 was conducted from June 5 to June 9. The question paper comprised a total of 120 questions carrying 480 marks. Candidates will be awarded four marks for each correct answer while one mark will be deducted for each wrong response. Those who qualify the exam will be eligible for admission to engineering, medical, and architecture programmes offered at colleges and universities in Kerala.

KEAM 2024 Result: Normalization method

Since the engineering and pharmacy exams were held in multiple sessions, a normalization method will be used to eliminate the difference in difficulty level of the different question papers. The raw scores of candidates will be converted into normalized scores or percentiles using the steps given below:

• Step1: Convert raw marks of students to percentile scores for each session separately.
• Step 2: Compute the interpolated scores for other sessions
• Step 3: Compute the normalized marks for each student

KEAM Result 2024: Tie-breaking criteria

In case of a tie between the marks of two candidates in the engineering exam, the tie will be resolved as follows:

• Candidate with a higher pre-normalized score in mathematics will be ranked first
• Candidate with a higher standardized marks in mathematics of the final year of the qualifying examination will be ranked first
• Candidate with a higher standardized marks in physics of the final year of the qualifying examination will be ranked first
• Candidate with correct higher number of responses in mathematics will be considered
• Candidate with correct higher number of responses in phyiscs will be considered
• Candidate older in age will be placed first

In case of a tie between the marks of two candidates in the architecture exam, the following tie-breaking criteria will be used:

• Candidates with higher score in ‘NATA’ will be placed higher in the ranking
