For the first time ever, the Kerala Engineering, Architecture, and Medical (KEAM) entrance exam will be administered online from June 1 to June 9. In addition to centers across Kerala, exam centers will also be set up in Dubai, Mumbai, and Delhi to accommodate candidates. The Center for the Development of Imaging Technology (C-DIT) has been entrusted with the task of conducting the online exams, marking a significant shift from traditional pen-and-paper tests. Commissioner for Entrance Examinations, K. Sudhir, has confirmed that exams for pharmacy courses will also be held shortly.

The online KEAM exam will span three hours and consist of 150 questions, with 75 in mathematics, 45 in physics, and 30 in chemistry. The exam will be conducted in multiple phases, with initial plans for 140-200 centers. Meanwhile, pharmacy exams will last for an hour and a half, with one or two exams scheduled daily. A detailed schedule for the exams is yet to be finalized, considering the phased approach adopted for conducting the examinations.
