Examination Pattern of MHT CET
Knowing the
examination pattern is always helpful is planning preparation as well as
attempting paper!
Examination Pattern:
The MHT CET examination is computer based and consists of two papers.
Paper-I: Physics and Chemistry
carries 100 marks together and duration is 90 minutes (One and Half Hour).
Paper-II: Mathematics
carries 100 Marks and duration is 90 minutes (One and Half Hour).
The total exam duration is 3 hours that is 180 minutes. During first 90 minutes (0 to 90 Minutes) candidates will attempt questions from Paper-I (Physics and Chemistry) and during last 90 minutes (91 to 180 Minutes) candidate will attempt Paper-II (Mathematics).

Question Paper Structure:
As per the notification,
following points are shared related to setting of question paper [ refer MHT
CET Brochure for more details]1.The questions will be based
on Syllabus of Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary
Education.
2. 20% weightage will be
given to the questions from Std. XI syllabus and 80% weightage will be given to
the questions from Std. XII syllabus while setting the question paper.3. There will be no Negative
Marking, the questions will be mainly application based.4. The question papers are
multiple choice questions (MCQ) having 4 options and the question and marking
system is as follows:
