The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) has posted new versions of the answer keys for the Karnataka State Eligibility Test (KSET) 2025 on its official portal. Exam participants can review the latest answer documents at https://cetonline.karnataka.gov.in/kea/. This update follows a comprehensive review by subject specialists, who examined every objection submitted concerning the provisional answer keys published earlier in November.
KEA has clarified that answer keys for seven specific fields have not changed. For these, the answers released on November 4, 2025, remain valid. Subject experts formed panels to examine each challenge, completing the process before establishing the final answer keys for all 33 subjects, which includes the general paper.
In its official communication, KEA stated: "Except for those questions for which objections were received and revised key answers are now published, the remaining key answers of KSET-2025 will remain the same as those published on 04.11.2025 on the authority’s website," KEA said in an official notice.
