What is the GPAT exam?

The Graduate Pharmacy Aptitude Test (GPAT) is a national-level entrance examination conducted once a year in India. As per the latest notifications, the exam is conducted by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS). Earlier, it was organised by the National Testing Agency (NTA).

GPAT provides a single, standardized score that is used for admission of B.Pharm graduates into M.Pharm and other postgraduate pharmacy programs. A valid GPAT score is accepted by AICTE and PCI approved colleges, universities, and institutes across India. For most students, qualifying GPAT is also essential to receive the AICTE Post Graduate (PG) Scholarship.

Why should you take the GPAT exam?

Clearing GPAT is not just about getting a rank. It opens several academic and career opportunities for you as a pharmacy graduate:

  • Entry to top M.Pharm colleges: A strong GPAT score helps you secure seats in reputed government and private institutes across India.
  • AICTE PG Scholarship: GPAT-qualified students admitted to AICTE-approved M.Pharm programs are eligible for a monthly stipend of ₹12,400, usually for the full two-year duration of the course (subject to guidelines and performance).
  • Mandatory for NIPER JEE: A valid GPAT score is a basic requirement to apply for NIPER JEE, the entrance exam for National Institutes of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPERs).
  • Helpful for PhD admissions: Many universities consider GPAT scores for direct admission to PhD programs in Pharmacy and may waive their own entrance tests.
  • Useful in PSU & industry recruitment: Certain public sector undertakings (PSUs) and research organisations use GPAT scores as part of their selection process for technical roles.
  • Stronger profile for private sector jobs: A good GPAT rank on your resume signals strong subject knowledge and analytical skills, which is valued in R&D, manufacturing, regulatory affairs and marketing.

GPAT eligibility criteria

Make sure you meet the official eligibility rules before applying:

  • Citizenship: You must be a citizen of India.
  • Educational qualification: You should hold a Bachelor’s degree in Pharmacy (B.Pharm) from a PCI or AICTE approved institute.

  • Lateral entry students: Candidates who joined B.Pharm in 2nd year after D.Pharm (lateral entry) are also eligible, as long as the college is approved.
  • Age limit: There is no upper age limit for appearing in GPAT.
  • Number of attempts: You can attempt the exam any number of times, as long as you fulfil the eligibility every year.

Not eligible: Candidates with only D.Pharm, B.Tech (Pharmaceutical & Fine Chemical Technology), B.Sc or any non-B.Pharm degree are not eligible to appear for GPAT.

GPAT application and admission process

The overall journey from filling the form to joining a college can be broken into two broad stages: GPAT exam and college-level counselling.

Step-by-step application process

  1. Registration: Visit the official NBEMS website during the application window and register with a valid email ID and mobile number.
  2. Fill the application form: Log in using your credentials and enter your personal, academic and communication details carefully.
  3. Upload documents: Upload a recent passport-sized photograph and signature as per the required format and file size.
  4. Pay the exam fee: Complete the payment using debit card, credit card or net banking.
  5. Download confirmation: Save and print the confirmation page / application summary for future reference.

Scorecard & counselling

After the exam, you will be able to download your official GPAT scorecard from the exam portal. This document is what colleges will ask for during admissions.

  • Scorecard validity: The GPAT scorecard is generally valid for three years for M.Pharm / PhD admissions. For the AICTE PG scholarship, it is normally used for admission in the immediate academic session.
  • Tie-breaker rules: If two candidates get the same marks, usually:
    1. The candidate with fewer negative responses gets a higher rank.
    2. If still tied, the older candidate is ranked higher.
  • Counselling: NBEMS does not conduct a central counselling. You need to apply separately to different AICTE/PCI-approved colleges and state counselling authorities using your GPAT score. Each institute prepares its own merit list and admission schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

As per recent changes, the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) conducts the GPAT exam. Earlier, GPAT was conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA).

Q2: Is GPAT compulsory for M.Pharm admission in India?

Q3: How much stipend do GPAT-qualified students receive?

GPAT-qualified candidates who join an AICTE-approved M.Pharm course are generally eligible for a monthly stipend of ₹12,400 for up to 24 months, subject to the current AICTE rules and satisfactory academic performance.

Yes. A valid GPAT score is a basic eligibility requirement to appear for NIPER JEE, which is the entrance exam for all NIPER institutes in India.

Q5: Is there any limit on the number of GPAT attempts?

No. There is no restriction on the number of attempts. You can appear for GPAT as many times as you like, provided you satisfy the eligibility criteria each time.

Q6: How long is the GPAT scorecard valid?

The GPAT scorecard is typically valid for three years for admissions to M.Pharm or PhD programs. For the AICTE stipend, it is usually considered for the immediate next academic year’s admission.

Q7: Does GPAT have negative marking?

Yes. GPAT follows negative marking. You get +4 marks for every correct answer and −1 mark for every wrong answer. Unattempted questions do not affect your score.

Q8: What is considered a “good score” in GPAT?

This changes from year to year. As a rough idea, scoring in the higher percentile range (for example, 95th percentile or above) usually gives you a strong chance for good colleges. The official qualifying cut-off (minimum marks to be declared “GPAT qualified”) is announced along with the results.

Yes. If you are pursuing or have completed B.Pharm through lateral entry from a PCI or AICTE-approved institute, you are fully eligible to appear for GPAT.

Q10: What documents are usually needed while filling the GPAT form?

Typically, you need a scanned passport-size photograph and signature in the specified format. Other academic documents are checked later during counselling or college-level admission, not at the form-filling stage.
