After the committee meeting is ended, they will release the notification on counselling.

Earlier, the APSCHE used to conduct the counselling for PG courses after EAMCET counselling. But now they have decided to conduct it before EAMCET.

APSCHE chairman said that this time PGECET counselling would be held in 10 centres across the state separately, which was hitherto be held at EAMCET counselling centres only.

"The PGECET counselling should not clash with EAMCET counselling,'' he said.

A total of 91,467 candidates appeared for PGECET exam. 90% candidates qualify for admissions.

Around 36,000 seats are available for M.E, M.Tech, M.Pharm and M.Arch courses.
