With 68.4% (12th), ACPUGMEC B.Sc. Nursing rank ~15073 (General) and merit score 45.23, your chances of a government B.Sc. Nursing seat in Gujarat are quite low. Government colleges usually close at much higher merit (lower rank), generally within the top few thousand, especially for the General category.

Still, you may get a seat in private/self-financed colleges under ACPUGMEC. I suggest you keep options open and participate in counselling till the last round, as vacancies sometimes open up.

Hello Kunti

With a merit rank of 15073 and 45.2381 marks and 68.4% in 12th, your chances of getting a government colleges are very low. Previous year trends have shown that seats for B.Sc Nursing in government colleges have close by 2000 - 5000 rank.

But you can still go for private colleges.

Hello!

Based on your details, the chances for a government BSc Nursing seat are quite low because general category cut-offs for government nursing colleges are usually higher (lower rank numbers). However, it’s not impossible — in later rounds, if seats remain vacant, your rank could still be considered.

Participate in all rounds of counselling (including mop-up), Keep private/self-financed colleges as backup. If budget is an issue, consider paramedical courses with lower cut-offs. Government seats are very competitive, so keep realistic expectations while still trying your best.

Thank you, and I hope you get a good seat.

Admission to a government BSc Nursing college with a general merit rank of 15073 and 45.2381 merit marks through ACPUGMEC is unlikely but not impossible.

Government colleges are highly competitive, typically requiring better ranks and scores due to limited seats.

Previous years' closing ranks for government colleges like Ahilya Bai, IMS BHU, and Florence Nightingale usually fall between 5,000 and 10,000. While your rank makes securing a government seat challenging, you might explore options in private colleges which have lower cut-offs and consider reviewing the opening and closing ranks from the previous years' counselling rounds.

Good luck..

Hi,

with 68.4% in 12th and a general merit rank of around 15,000, your chances for a government BSc Nursing seat through ACPUGMEC are modest but not impossible. Government nursing colleges generally have high cut-offs, especially for the general category, as the number of seats is limited and competition is high. Your exact chances will depend on the number of applicants in your category this year, the number of government seats available, and how many higher-ranked students choose government options. While it may be difficult to secure the most in-demand colleges, you could still get a government seat in lesser-known districts or newly established institutions. I recommend keeping your options open by also applying to good private colleges with affordable fees, as many of them offer excellent training and placements.

Best wishes for your admission,
