Only 20% weightage will be given to class 11 syllabus in the CET and rest 80% weightage will be given to class 12 syllabus,
Also, DTE Maharashtra has decided to bring the difficulty level of MHT CET- Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics to that of National Level Engineering Entrance Exam, JEE Main. Also, in the same way, the difficulty level for Biology will be on par with the National Level Medical Entrance Test NEET. The candidates thus can expect a more difficult level of MHT CET this year. Thus it is advisable to dive into the preparation and know the nature of the examination properly.
As per the previous year’s data:
In MHT CET 2017, not even 1% of students who appeared for the Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MH-CET) for engineering and pharmacy courses scored 150 out of 200 marks (75%) or more in the examination. According to the CET Cell, in MHT CET 2017, the highest marks scored by a student in PCM was 197, while that in PCB group was 190. However, only 2,889 or 1.02% students from PCM group scored 150 marks or more. The performance of students from the PCB was worse as only 573 or 0.24% crossed 150.
The level of MHT CET 2017 was considered difficult and thus the poor result of the candidates was justified. With the board bringing up the level of the examination much higher in 2018, has created greater anticipations among the candidates about this year’s performance. But, right now, the focus of the candidates must be to prepare with all they have and to not worry about the results.
