MH CET Law Result 2026 (5-year LLB): Direct Link, Download Scorecard, Rank List

The MH CET Law 2026 answer key for the 3-year LLB course was released on April 29, 2026. Candidates were allowed to raise objections against the answer key during the answer key objection window between May 1 to May 3, 2026. The fee per objection was INR 1,000.

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.

As per the previous year trends, the score above 99 will be considered a good score for both 3-year and 5-year LLB programs. However, the good score depends on many factors such as targetted college, category of the candidate, reservation policy, and the overall performance of the candidate. For admission to top law colleges accepting MH Law CET score, the cut off score is declared which also depends on the number of the candidate and difficulty level of the papers.

Candidates should aim to get 99+ score overall in MH CET Law exam (for both 3-year LLB & 5-year LLB). Following listed is the good score to aim for the top colleges accepting MH CET Law scores:
