Students up in Arms as Final Results Downgraded because Exams Were 'Too Easy'

KERALA, INDIA, JUL 9 – The court ruled the revised KEAM 2025 ranking method unfair to CBSE and ICSE syllabus students, overturning results after complaints about the normalization process, officials said.

  • The Kerala High Court quashed the KEAM 2025 entrance exam results on July 9, 2025, due to a petition challenging the ranking method.
  • The court ruled the last-minute amendment to the rank calculation formula unfairly disadvantaged CBSE and ICSE syllabus students.
  • The new formula changed the weightage of Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry from 1:1:1 to 5:3:2 based on an expert committee's recommendation.
  • Justice D.K. Singh said the revised method adversely affected students, while Higher Education Minister R Bindu stated legal steps would follow cabinet discussions.
  • The annulment disrupted the KEAM admission process and forced the government to prepare a revised rank list per the original prospectus.
