There is no fixed qualifying mark for SC candidates through AP PGCET 2025. Reserved categories do not have a minimum required score in the exam itself. However, each college and course releases its own category‑wise cutoff, usually expressed as the closing rank in PGCET. Competitive SC ranks often fall between 500 and 3000, depending on the institution and program.

From what I found, C B Patel Arts College in Nadiad (affiliated with Gujarat University) offers BA and MA programs, but does not list a B.Ed program on their official page or in listings. Since they don’t offer B.Ed, fee info isn’t available. But just so you know, similar colleges in Gujarat (like RH Patel English Medium B.Ed, Gandhinagar) charge around Rs. 50,000 per year.
