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.
