Dear student, yes, it is possible to get a seat in the M.Pharm. (Pharmaceutics) program at MDU without a GPAT score only if seats are available. The eligibility criteria for M.Pharma at MDU are having a B. Pharm degree with at least 50% marks or any other examination recognised by MDU as equivalent thereto, and possessing a valid GPAT score. In case GPAT qualified students are not available, or seats or vacant, then the open seats will go to other candidates on a merit basis i.e., on the basis of their aggregate score of B.Pharmacy.
