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.
