💡 Expert Tip

If you hold a Diploma/B.Pharma/B.Sc in Pharmacy, make sure your Pharmacy Council registration (State or PCI) is in place well before enrolment, since this is a mandatory requirement, not optional. The age window and PFT timing differ for Diploma/Pharmacy holders versus regular 10+2 candidates, so double-check which bracket you fall into before registering — entering wrong data cannot be corrected later. The written exam carries a 0.25 mark penalty for wrong answers, so don't guess blindly on the English and Reasoning/General Awareness sections. Keep your matriculation and 10+2 certificates ready in DigiLocker-verified format, as physical document verification at Phase-II is strict and internet copies or mobile photo printouts are not accepted.
