Candidates in Reserved Categories (SC, ST, and OBC): 40%
But these minimal percentages are only the fundamental requirements for Sharda University's D.Pharma admissions eligibility.

• 50% of total marks in PCB, PCM, and PCMB for the general category.
• 40% for candidates in the reserved SC/ST categories.

• In 2022, the cutoff point for admission to Sharda's B.Pharma programme was 88% for general category candidates and 79% for SC/ST candidates in their 12th grade.
  Therefore, your 60% score is not only below the high cutoffs but also below the minimum qualifying percentage required for B.Pharma at SOP.
