Hello,

With a rank of 1357 in AP PGECET, you have a good chance of securing a seat in the M.Pharmacy program, particularly in the Pharmacology department. However, seat availability can vary depending on the institution and the category-wise cut-offs. Since you’re in the BC category, you might have a slight advantage in securing a seat compared to general category students. It’s a good idea to check the specific cut-off ranks for the colleges you’re interested in and consult the latest counseling details for the most accurate information.

Hope it helps !

With a GPAT rank of 2157, securing a seat in JNTUH M.Pharm Pharmacology might be challenging, especially for the general category. However, your TS PGECET rank of 79 can be advantageous if you belong to a reserved category.

To make an informed decision:

1. Check Cutoffs: Look at previous year cutoffs for both GPAT and TS PGECET for JNTUH M.Pharm Pharmacology.
2. Consider Reservations: If you belong to a reserved category, your TS PGECET rank can significantly improve your chances.
3. Explore Other Options: If the chances seem low, consider other colleges or specializations within pharmacy.

Ultimately, participating in both counseling processes (GPAT and TS PGECET) would be advisable to explore all possibilities.

Remember, cutoff ranks can fluctuate yearly, so stay updated with the latest information.

hope this helps you!!

The GPAT 2024 cut-off for M.Pharm admissions in Pharmacology varied by category. For General (UR), it was around 96.15 percentile, while for OBC, it was 90.09, and for SC, it was 75.44. Specific cut-offs depend on the institution and program.

Hi there,

Hope you are doing fine.

The marks required to secure an MD in Pharmacology through NEET PG can vary significantly depending on the years exam difficulty, competition levels, and the number of available seats.

Generally for a government medical college, you need to score well within the top percentiles to be competitive for MD Pharmacology  given the specialties specific cutoff trends. Typically a rank within the top few thousand  which corresponds to a high score in the NEET PG  would be necessary.

As the cutoffs can fluctuate, it is necessary to review the previous years cutoff trends and patterns for MD Pharmacology at various institutions to get a better estimate.

Hope this resolves your query.
