Kerala High Court Quashes KEAM 2025 Entrance Exam Results, Cites Bias Against CBSE & ICSE Students

The Kerala High Court has cancelled the 2025 KEAM entrance exam results, holding that the new weightage formula for marks standardisation unfairly favoured state board students over those from CBSE and ICSE.

Justice D.K. Singh noted that the revised formula, based on Tamil Nadu’s model, skewed results and denied equal opportunity. The Court directed authorities to issue a fresh rank list using the earlier uniform method.

The Kerala government has moved a division bench in appeal. With counselling set to begin soon, the verdict has created uncertainty over engineering and architecture admissions this year.
