Daily tests, weekly tests, 5 full-length mocks and a week-by-week plan across all five sections of the paper.
The Graduate Pharmacy Aptitude Test (GPAT) is a national computer-based test for entry to M.Pharm courses. NBEMS conducts it, declares the result and hands it to the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI). Counselling and admissions are run by the authorities concerned, not NBEMS.
The GPAT 2027 bulletin is awaited from NBEMS. Until it's out, the exam details on this page follow the GPAT 2026 information bulletin, and the 2026 dates are shown only for reference.

NBEMS calls this blueprint indicative. Minutes are at exam pace: 180 minutes for 125 questions, about 1.44 minutes each. Chemistry, pharmaceutics and pharmacology together carry 104 of the 125 questions.
Each category keeps 5% for PwBD candidates (40% or more disability). Candidates below the last qualified rank but on the same score or percentile are declared not qualified.
B.E. / B.Tech. (Pharmaceutical and Fine Chemical Technology) and equivalent are not eligible. Eligibility is provisional and is checked at counselling.
The fee is not refunded or carried forward. GPAT 2027 fees are awaited from NBEMS.
Multiple choice with 4 options, in English only. +4 for a correct answer, −1 for a wrong one (25% negative marking), 0 if unattempted. The paper runs in time-bound sections: with 5 sections, each has 25 questions and 36 minutes, and you can't go back to a section once its time ends.
125 MCQs, 180 minutes, one computer-based paper.
Raw marks under the final answer key give your score and all-India rank.
50th percentile (45th for OBC, SC, ST, PwBD) and the top 10% of candidates.
For M.Pharm and PhD admission at PCI-approved institutions. Valid 3 years.
Expected marks per guess = 4 × P(correct) − 1 × P(wrong). With +4 / −1, even a blind guess gains on average. The catch: if your score ties with others, fewer wrong answers ranks higher. We train elimination on every mock.
20 questions every day, Monday to Saturday, on that day's topics, marked +4 / −1.
40 questions every Sunday on the whole week's topics.
On an NBEMS-style interface: 125 questions, 180 minutes, time-bound sections.
Previous GPAT questions, topic by topic, to learn the exam's style and level.
Compact notes for every subject in the plan, built for quick revision.
Weekend sessions with faculty on selected slots to clear doubts subject by subject.
