Commonly asked questions
Q:   What is the difference between Percentile Scores and Marks in MH CET Law?
A: 

Percentile scores are based on the relative performance of all those who appear for the examination. Basically, the marks obtained are transformed into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees.
Basically, the Percentile Score indicates the percentage of candidates that have scored EQUAL TO OR BELOW (same or lower raw scores) that particular Percentile in that examination. 

However, marks are the raw scores obtained in the examination by the candidates. Based on these raw scores/ marks, percentile score in the range of 0-100 is calculated to measure each candidates' performance without any bias due to different difficulty levels. 

Q:   What is MH CET Law Normalization Method to calculate scores?
A: 

Normalization process is an established practice for comparing candidate scores across multiple shift papers. There are possibilities of different level of difficulties in each shift for the same exam, however to tackle this scenario, the Normalization Method will be used to calculate the MH CET Law 3-year and 5-year LLB results.

Step 1: Candidates would be distributed into four sessions randomly so that each session has approximately equal number of candidates. Suppose: Session-1: Day-1 Batch 1 (D1-B1), Session-2: Day-1 Batch-2 (D1-B2), Session-3: Day-1 Batch 3 (D1-B3).

Step-2: The examination results for each session would be prepared in the form of Raw Scores.

Total Percentile (TP) = 100 X No. of candidates appeared from the session with raw score equal to or less than T1 score

                               Total No. of Candidates appeared for the session

Step-3: The Percentile scores for the Total Raw Score for all the four sessions (Session- 1: Day-1 Batch 1-1, Session-2: Day-1 batch-2 and Session-3: Day-1 Batch-3 as calculated in Step-2 above would be merged and shall be called the CET Percentile scores which will then be used for compilation of result.

The Percentile of all four sessions will be calculated separately for the total raw score.

Q:   Is there any negative marking in MH CET law?
A: 

There's no negative marking in the MH CET Law exam, whether it's for the 3-year LLB or the 5-year LLB course. You don't lose marks for any wrong or skipped question, so you can try every one of them without worry.

The paper has around 120 to 150 questions, depending on the exam type and year, and you can attempt all without fear of losing marks.
