    Other: This course is undertaken in S. D. School of Commerce which is in the campus of Gujarat University. It provides various commerce courses. The course I attended was PGDIFA which was conducted by way of evening classes. Honestly, there are 2 types of students attending this course. 1. Those who don't get job after B. Com - to make their resumes attractive. 2. Those who need fourth year education after their 3 year B. Com to get '12+4' status for studying abroad. Faculties are P.Hd. But you will not feel so. I, being a CA, was identifying atleast 1 principle error in P.hd teachers' teaching. I don't know how they became P.hd. Some faculties are good though. There's also no coordination for Project Desertion. The project I made under ine faculty's guidance was rendered 'Not a PG Level Project' by other faculty before whom I presented the project for final assessment. No clean toilets and class rooms.

    Yes, with an OJEE general rank of 2204, you have a good chance of securing a B.Pharm seat at Utkal University, though it is not 100% guaranteed. Government pharmacy seats in Odisha typically close within a general rank range of 4500 to 5500, putting your rank safely inside the competitive threshold.
