MHTCET

According to the student's feedback and exam analysis, shift1 of April 15 was widely reported as the toughest shift of the MHT CET April attempt.

With a 51 percentile in MHT CET you might have limited options for top-tier engineering programs. Since you already possess a specialized, high-value professional course, so I think repeating an engineering/technical entrance exam to join a lower-tier private college will take you a step backward.

Yes, you can get into Mumbai University's affiliated colleges with a 50 percentile in the MHT CET exam if you belong to the General HS category. For this category, the Round 1 cutoff ranged from 38.67 to 99.1 for the BTech CSE course. Hence, getting admission with the attained percentile can be possible. Students can check the table below to know which colleges might accept their attained percentile.

Please note that the cutoff will vary for different categories, rounds, branches, etc. 

Mumbai University MHT CET cutoff 2026 has been released for admission to the BE course and its various branches. For the General AI category, the Round 1 cutoff for the BTech CSE course varied between 29.17 and 72.53.

For the OBC HS category, the same round and branch cutoff vaired from 7.64 to 94.19. Check the table below for Round 1 cutoff range for the BTech CSE course for various categories. 

Sorry, but according to me with 96.09 percentile in MHT-CET through PCB, you cannot get admission to ICT for B.Tech Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Technology. The cuttoff competitively closes around 99.0 to 99.9 percentile.

category matters a lot. If you have a reserved category or qualify under a particular minority seat category, the situation can be different.

Yes. With 79 percentile in MHT-CET, you have a realistic chance of getting admission to SAE Sinhgad Academy of Engineering (Kondhwa, Pune), depending on the branch and category.

MHT-CET is not necessarily the only way, but you should not assume that you can simply take direct admission without any entrance/eligibility requirements.

Exam-SITEEE

No, PERA CET and MHT CET both are different exams. These entrance exams are held for BTech admission, but by different authorities. Here are some key differences:

• MHT CET is conducted by the Government of Maharashtra's State Common Entrance Test Cell. While PERA CET is conducted by Preeminent Education and Research Association (PERA India)

• MHT CET scores are used for admission to state government, government-aided, and many private and minority colleges. On the other hand, PERA CET scores are used for admission to member private and self-financed colleges/universities in Maharashtra.
