In Gujarat, if you want to take admission in engineering and pharmacy colleges, you must go through a system that is merit-based. When the entrance exam performance is consistent with the academic achievement, your seats are secured structurally. You can secure seats in the top government and self-financed colleges across the state through the Gujarat Common Entrance Test (GUJCET). Thousands of students appear for it every year, and they focus on GUJCET so much. But they forget about Class 12 marks. The Class 12 board marks carry a lot of weightage in engineering or pharmacy admissions. As per the admission rules, GUJCET carries 40% weightage while board carries 60% weightage for securing engineering and pharmacy seats in Gujarat. Let’s know about them here.
