The Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) is set to release the provisional answer key for AP EAMCET 2026 on May 23, 2026, along with candidate response sheets. The answer key will be published online through the official portal, allowing students who appeared for the exam between May 12 and May 20, 2026, to access shift-wise PDFs and estimate their scores before the final results are announced.
The Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU), Kakinada, which conducts the exam on behalf of APSCHE, will activate download links for both Engineering and Agriculture & Pharmacy streams on the official website. Candidates will be able to log in using their registration number, hall ticket number, and date of birth to access their individual response sheets and the master question paper with the preliminary answer key.
After downloading the provisional key, students who find discrepancies will be allowed to raise objections through an online window. To submit challenges, candidates must provide valid supporting documents and may need to pay a nominal fee per question, which is refundable if the objection is accepted. The objection window is expected to remain open until May 25, 2026.
The exam schedule shows that the Engineering stream tests were held from May 12 to 18, while Agriculture and Pharmacy exams took place on May 19 and 20. The Engineering stream saw 2,75,784 registrations with a turnout of about 2,57,800 candidates, while the Agriculture and Pharmacy stream recorded over 73,000 candidates.
With results expected in June 2026 followed by counselling in July, the release of the answer key marks an important step for students assessing their admission chances.
