MHT CET 2025: Syllabus and exam pattern
The questions will be based on the syllabus provided by the State Council of Educational Research and Training, Maharashtra. Approximately 20% of the weightage will cover the Class 11 curriculum, while 80% will focus on Class 12 topics.
There will be no negative marking for incorrect answers. However, the difficulty level for the PCM section will be on par with JEE Main, and the biology section will align with NEET UG standards. The questions will primarily test application-based knowledge.
The MHT CET is conducted for admission to professional courses in engineering, technology, pharmacy, planning, and agricultural education. For the academic year 2025-26, the entrance test will be held at multiple exam centers both within Maharashtra and outside the state.
