Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE) has successfully conducted the KEAM 2022 entrance exam today, July 04, 2022. The Kerala Engineering, Agricultural and Medical (KEAM) 2022 entrance exam was held in two slots – 10:00 am to 12:30 pm and 2:30 pm to 5:00 pm. The official answer key for the same is likely to release soon, preferably by July 07, 2022. This key will be provisional and subject to objections raised by candidates. As of now, CEE has not announced any fixed date for the provisional answer key release.
CEE will be releasing two types of KEAM 2022 answer keys. The first key will be provisional. The second key, scheduled to release later, will comprise changes based on the objections raised by aspirants.
KEAM Answer Key 2022 release date
Based on past 4-year trends, the provisional answer key is released within 0-3 days of exam conduction. By this logic, one cannot deny the possibility of the answer key releasing today. If not today, the provisional draft may release by July 07, 2022.
Given below is a table which summarises the past 5-year trends –
| KEAM | Exam Date | Answer Key Release | Deadline for Objection Facility | Difference of Days (between exam date and answer key release) |
| 2022 | July 04, 2022 | July 04-07, 2022 (tentative) | July 10-13, 2022 (tentative) | 0-3 days |
| 2021 | August 05, 2021 | August 06, 2021 | August 14, 2021 | 1 day |
| 2020 | July 16, 2020 | July 19, 2020 | July 25, 2020 | 3 days |
| 2019 | May 02 and 03, 2019 | May 04, 2019 | May 08, 2022 | 1 day |
| 2018 | April 23 and 24, 2018 | April 24, 2018 | April 30, 2022 | 0 days |
In 2021 and 2019, the provisional answer key was released a day after the KEAM 2022 exam. In 2020, CEE took three days to release the provisional draft. Surprisingly, in 2018, the provisional key was released 3 days later. All three trends are possible for KEAM 2022 and hence, candidates are advised to keep an eye out for the answer key link.
KEAM 2022 Objection Facility
After the release of the KEAM 2022 provisional answer key, candidates will be given an objection facility. Using this facility, they can raise issues against any question, answer or option in the key. Based on past-year trends, this facility usually remains active for 4-8 days.
Assuming that the KEAM 2022 answer key releases today, candidates may get time up to July 12, 2022, to raise objections. However, this is just a speculation that is yet to be denied or accepted by CEE.
