With your rank it is highly impossible to get into md pharmacology in any government colleges in Uttar Pradesh so the closing rank for MD pharmacology is usually 20000 to 50000 if you are looking for private colleges check on the official website for more updates for more opportunities attend state counselling

A rank of 1.75 lakh in NEET PG is very high, and getting a government MD seat, especially in UP, is nearly impossible at this range. For MD Pharmacology, the closing ranks in government medical colleges usually lie around 20,000–50,000, depending on the state and round.

Hello,

With a rank of 175600 in NEET PG, it's very unlikely that you are getting any seat at government colleges for the MD Pharmacology in Uttar Pradesh. With these higher ranks, you are not getting the government colleges, but you can check cutoffs for these branches in the official NEET PG cutoffs.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Thank you for your inquiry.

With an All India Rank (AIR) of 472 in the General category and a Category Rank of 186, your prospects for securing Pharmacology & Toxicology (core) at leading NIPER institutes such as Mohali or Hyderabad hinge significantly on the cut-off trends for the current counselling cycle. Historically, NIPER Mohali’s cut-offs for this specialization in the General category have typically closed between AIR 150 and 300. Given this, admission in the first round appears unlikely with your current rank. Nonetheless, it is advisable to monitor subsequent sliding or spot rounds, as vacancies can arise due to candidate withdrawals or seat upgradation.

For NIPER Hyderabad, the cut-offs have generally extended slightly higher compared to Mohali, which means your AIR of 472 affords you a reasonable opportunity, particularly during Round 2 or in later sliding rounds.

Recommended steps:

1. Include both Mohali and Hyderabad at the top of your preference list.

2. Consider additional options such as NIPER Guwahati or NIPER Raebareli, where the cut-off ranks tend to be more accommodating.

3. Consistently check the official NIPER counselling portal for updates, seat matrices, and round-wise allotment announcements.

If you require further details regarding branch-wise cut-offs or alternative program recommendations, please let me know. Wishing you success in your NIPER admission process.

Hello aspirant,

The study of how medications and other substances impact biological systems is the main emphasis of a postgraduate degree known as a Master of Science (MSc) in Pharmacology.
The course is broken up into four six-month semesters.  Additionally, the structure reflects this, with three practical courses that demand subject-matter expertise in addition to theory classes that run the course.

Hi! Were you offered admission in the second iteration?

Based on your score of 113 out of 300 in the BITS HD 2025 exam, admission to BITS Pilani for the M.Pharm. (Pharmacology) program presents a significant challenge, though it isn’t entirely out of reach. The feasibility of securing a seat will depend on the specific cutoff trends for the year and the number of available seats.

Here’s what’s relevant:

- In recent years, cutoffs for M.Pharm. and its specializations have typically fallen somewhere between 90 and 130 marks. That said, these numbers can shift depending on the applicant pool and other factors in a given cycle.

- BITS Pilani usually maintains higher cutoffs than its Hyderabad and Goa counterparts, particularly for competitive programs.

- The number of seats available for Pharmacology is limited, which increases the level of competition among applicants.

- If you are applying under the General category, your chances may be somewhat lower compared to those who fall under reserved categories, depending on the year’s reservation policies.

Recommended actions:

- Wait for the official cutoff and merit lists, which BITS Pilani will release during the counseling process. This will provide a clearer picture of your standing.

- Prepare alternative plans in case the cutoff for Pilani exceeds your score.

- Consider BITS Hyderabad as an option, as this campus may have slightly lower cutoffs for the same program.

For the most up-to-date information, regularly check the official BITS HD admission portal and monitor round-wise cutoff announcements.
