The Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) 2022 is all set to be conducted on June 16 and 17, 2022. The Kannada language test shall be conducted thereafter, on June 18, 2022, for Horanadu & Gadinadu Kannadiga candidates. Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) shall be issued admit cards to all those who successfully registered for KCET 2022. However, the exact date for admit card release remains a mystery. Once released, candidates will be able to access their hall tickets online, on the official website cetonline.karnataka.gov.in.
Although the KCET admit card 2022 release date is not known, reports have predicted the tentative date based on past-year trends.
Usually, the KCET admit card is released 12-17 days prior to exam date. Given this logic, admit cards for 2022 session are likely to come out on June 01, 2022, (15 days) or between May 31 and June 04, 2022 (12-17 days).
KCET Admit Card 2022 Past 5-year Trends
Following is a table which briefly summarises the exam trends of past 5 years i.e., 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017.
| Exam Session | Admit Card Release Date | Exam Date | Difference between Events |
| 2022 | Between May 31-June 04, 2022 | June 16 and 17, 2022 | 12-17 days |
| 2021 | August 13, 2021 | August 28 and 29, 2021 | 15 days |
| 2020 | July 28, 2020 | July 30, 31 and August 01, 2020 | 2 days |
| 2019 | April 12, 2019 | April 29, 30 and May 01, 2019 | 17 days |
| 2018 | April 06, 2018 | April 18 and 19, 2018 | 12 days |
| 2017 | April 17, 2017 | May 02, 03 and 03, 2017 | 15 days |
Looking at the table, it is evident that KEA releases the KCET admit card 2022 12-17 days prior to exam conduction. This trend however, was defied in 2020 when admit cards were issued just two days prior to exam date. Considering this trend, candidates can expect their hall tickets to come out by June 14, 2022. However, the possibility remains bleak compared to the other trend.
