GPAT

GPAT cutoff refers to the minimum scores which candidates must obtain in order to qualify for the exam or to be eligible to participate in the counselling or the selection process at the participating institutes. The GPAT cutoff is shared by NBEMS on the official website for the candidates who wish to apply to MPharma colleges. Every institute has set their individual admission criteria which the applicants need to follow to seek admission to the preferred course and college.   

Last year, GPAT cutoff was 148, 122, 120, 94 and 75 for General, EWS, OBC, SC, and ST category candidates. However, this year's GPAT cutoff will depend on several factors such as the difficulty level & number of students who appeared in the entrance exam. Students will be able to take admission on first come first serve basis. If the number of GPAT applicants increases, competition would also get tougher, and the cutoff will soar higher.

The GPAT 2025 cutoff is 216 marks for the UR category. Last year, the GPAT cutoff was 148 (General category); 120 (OBC category); 94 (SC category); 75 (ST category); 122 (EWS category). Candidates who appeared for the GPAT exam are shortlisted based on the cut-off marks published by the participating institutes on their individual website. The cutoff will be released by NBEMS along with the result.

Once the GPAT cutoff is announced by individual colleges/institutes, candidates can check the cutoff score on their individual websites to seek admission in the preferred course and college.

In case the challenges are valid and correct, they will be accepted and published in the final answer key. In case the challenge is invalid or incorrect, it will be rejected and no challenge fee will be refunded. Later, along with the GPAT result, the final answer key will be released at the NTA-GPAT website.
