Important Note for Aspirants

- No Change of City: The CET Cell generally does not entertain requests for changing the allotted exam city. The allocation is based on the preferences submitted during the registration process.
Preparation Strategy: The Final Push
With the PCB exams starting in three weeks and PCM in one month, high school students should focus on the following:
- Class 11 Weightage: Remember that 20% of the questions come from the Class 11 Maharashtra State Board syllabus, while 80% are from Class 12.
- No Negative Marking: MHT CET does not penalize for wrong answers. Practice managing your time to ensure all 150 questions (for PCM) or 200 questions (for PCB) are attempted.
- Difficulty Level: Mathematics is typically on par with JEE Main (Easy to Moderate), while Physics and Chemistry follow the state textbook closely.
