MHTCET Pattern

Negative marks are not applied to MHT CET exam wrong answers. Physics and Chemistry questions in the MHT CET exam are worth one mark. Unanswered questions do not result in a mark deduction. All candidates will receive full marks for any question in which none of the answers are determined to be correct, the question is deemed to be incorrect, or it is discarded. This is true whether or not a candidate attempts to answer the question.

It is not compulsory to attempt all the question in exam. Students can attempt any number of questions out of total 150 questions in the exam. Students are advised to attempt only those questions for which they can arrive at the answers/solutions. Questions for which the answer is not sure should be left. Students must note that there are no minimum marks in MHT CET that students need to score. Students gets All India Rank based on the marks they secure in exam and gets admission based on that rank.

The MHT CET (Maharashtra Common Entrance Test) is conducted online as a Computer Based Test (CBT). This has been the mode of examination since at least 2023, and it's likely to continue for MHT CET 2024 as well.
