Every year, lakhs of students dream of getting admission to prestigious engineering, pharmacy or professional colleges in Gujarat and move towards a better future. The biggest step to realize this dream is GUJCET (Gujarat Common Entrance Test), after passing which the students wait for the merit list released by the Gujarat Admission Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC). The same process was followed in the year 2025 and now finally the final merit list has been released on 7 June 2025. This merit list is not just a ranking document for the students but an important milestone to determine the direction in which their career will go.
This merit list has been prepared on the basis of the combined weightage of 10+2 i.e. 12th class marks and marks obtained in the GUJCET exam. This simply means that both your school hard work and competitive examination have been given equal importance. It is a balanced and fair assessment system that gives students a chance to move forward according to their ability.

What is the basis of the merit list?
The merit list of GUJCET ACPC 2025 is based on two major sources:
- 60% weightage is taken from the total marks of the students in science subjects of class 12th (10+2).
- 40% weightage is of the marks obtained in the GUJCET exam.
This formula gives balanced importance to the performance of the students in both school and competitive examination. Students who have performed well in board exams but have been a little weak in GUJCET can also get a satisfactory rank. Similarly, students who perform well in GUJCET also get higher positions in the merit list.
What to do if there is a mistake in the merit list?
ACPC gives full opportunity to the students to register objections if they see any mistake in the provisional merit list. For this, ACPC had issued a helpline number, 079-23226016, on which students could call and tell their problem.
To register an objection, students should:
- Take a screenshot of the wrong information (such as name, marks, or rank).
- Mail or call the helpline with their registration number and personal details.
- Send the required documents and request to correct the mistake.
After considering all these objections, the final merit list has been published on 7 June 2025, so that there is no confusion left now.
What to do after the merit list?
Now that the merit list is out, the next and most important step is to participate in the counseling process. This process is completed in a few steps:
- Choice Filling: In this, students select the college and branch of their choice.
- Seat Allotment: ACPC allots seats to students based on their rank and choice.
- Document Verification: Students have to upload their documents and provide proof of correct information.
- Fee Payment and College Reporting: Finally, to confirm the seat, students have to pay the fee and report to the respective college.
The entire process is online, but some documents are also verified at the college level, so it is important to keep all the necessary certificates ready.
