The MHT CET exam follows the reservation policies of the Government of Maharashtra. Candidates from reserved categories such as Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC), and other socially and economically backward classes are eligible for reservation benefits. 50-55% of the seats are reserved for these categories. Within these categories, there are also reservations for persons with disabilities (PwD), economically weaker sections (EWS), and children of defence personnel. In addition, candidates from Maharashtra also benefit from a domicile-based reservation system. For those applying from outside Maharashtra, a limited number of seats are available under the All India Quota (AIQ), where no state-based reservations apply.
The MHT CET Previous Year Papers will help the candidates with better comprehension of the test format, recognize key subjects, and develop their time management skills by completing the previous year’s question papers. Effective time management is crucial for success in the MHT CET 2025.
The mock test pattern is similar to the entrance examination. Attempting MHT CET mock tests also increases the speed of the candidates which will help in completing the actual exam on time.
