Though it is unfortunate that the details of income have been wrongly fed into the application form, you are still allowed to correct this during counselling itself. Here's what you can do:


Assemble Required Documents


Income Certificate: Get an income certificate from the concerned authority, either the employer of your parents or the concerned revenue department.

Salary Slips: Collect latest salary slips of your parents to prove their income.

Other Supporting Documents: Any other documents that you feel will back your claim of being part of the low-income family.

Hand in Your Documents During Counseling:

Do not forget to do

Not panicking

Make all your documents ready.

Be patient and cooperate with the counselor

Hello student,

With a 22,000 rank in AP EAMCET , admission to Pharm D in top government colleges might be difficult, as these programs usually have high demand and limited seats. However, you still have a chance in private or self-financed colleges , especially if your rank falls within their cutoff range. If you belong to a reserved category (like BC, SC, or ST) or come from a rural area, you may have better chances due to category-specific seats.

In later counseling rounds, seat availability can fluctuate, increasing your chances, as some students may opt out or choose other programs. Keeping an eye on spot admissions and management quota seats in private colleges might also help if regular counseling doesn’t offer a spot.
