No re-exam for CET; 50 out-of-syllabus questions across four subjects to be excluded for assessment

The State government has decided not to re-conduct the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (CET) and also to not consider for assessment the 50 out-of-syllabus questions in four papers.

This essentially means over 20% of the questions in the four subjects — Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology — put together will not be considered for assessment.

The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) received 4,000 objections from students over several out-of-syllabus questions in CET-2024. “Considering the burden on students to prepare again for the exams and the stress on them, it has been decided to not conduct the re-exam,” the Department of Higher Education said in a statement on Sunday.
