Yes, if you got 2066 rank in APPGECET 2025, you can get a seat in M.Pharmacy. You have better chances in private colleges.

Your admission depends on your category, the branch of pharmacy you choose (like Pharmacology or Pharmaceutics), and the college you prefer.

If you belong to a reserved category, your chances are higher. Government colleges may need lower ranks, but private colleges usually offer seats for ranks up to 3000 or more.

Keep checking the official counselling updates and be ready with your documents for web options.

With a rank of 347 in AP PGECET and belonging to the BC category, you have a good chance of getting admission in JNTU Kakinada or other government colleges for M.Tech. Reserved category candidates with ranks below 500 are generally eligible for fee reimbursement, provided they meet the income criteria. You can also expect a seat in top branches like CSE or AI based on past cut-offs.
