Bhaikaka University in Anand, Gujarat, determines admissions primarily through national and state-level entrance exams like NEET for medical programs, with cut-offs varying by course, category, and counseling rounds under Gujarat state quotas. Previous years' data shows fluctuating closing ranks for MBBS and super-specialty courses, that reflects competition in the state's private medical seats affiliated with Pramukhswami Medical College (PSMC). Merit lists and category reservations (General, SC, ST, SEBC) guide final selections, with 2025 trends indicating higher ranks needed amid rising applicants.
Admissions rely on NEET UG for MBBS/BPT/B.Sc Nursing (50% PCB in 10+2 eligibility), NEET PG for MD/MS/MPT/M.Sc, and NEET SS for DM/DrNB, processed via ACPUGMEC/ACPPGMEC counseling.
University-specific tests apply to PhD and select allied health programs, followed by interviews and document verification. Reserved categories receive relaxations per Gujarat norms, with 85% state quota seats emphasizing home-state domicile.
Previous Year Cut-offs (MBBS - NEET UG)
MBBS cut-offs under General-Home State quota show a tightening trend, with Round 3 closing ranks improving from 2022 highs due to seat expansions and exam difficulty. Data covers last rounds; actual admission may occur earlier via merit lists.
