Karnataka CET 2019 is the state-level entrance examination which is conducted by the Karnataka Examinations Authority. The Common Entrance Test is conducted to screen students for admission to engineering, pharmacy and other professional courses in the state-run higher educational institutions.
The JEE Advanced 2019 exam is also set to clash with the Lok Sabha Elections 2019, as per the Election Commission of India's announcement of the schedule. JEE Advanced 2019, which is the entrance examination for admission to Indian Institutes of Technology, is scheduled for May 19, 2019 (Sunday). Therefore, the date is expected to be revised and an update on the JEE Advanced 2019 exam date is likely to be up on jeeadv.ac.in.
