What is the normalisation process in MHT CET
The MHT CET exam happens on multiple shifts. Because of this, the MHT CET cell decides to normalise the score of the candidates. There could be variability in the difficulty level of different shifts. So it would be impossible to give raw marks.
In order to solve this problem, percentile scores are given to candidates instead. The method normalises the scores and gives an even playing field. For candidates who have appeared in two or more attempts, the authority considers the highest percentile score while preparing the merit list for admission.
How many students appeared for MHT CET 2026
From the official figures, more than 7.25 lakh aspirants had registered for MHT CET 2026 across all streams. Over 90 per cent of candidates appeared for the PCM group, showing the popularity of engineering and technology streams.
The test was held in several centres in the rural and urban parts of the state to accommodate the large number of aspirants.
What happens after MHT CET PCM result 2026
After the results are released, the Centralised Admission Process (CAP) is slated to commence later this month. Candidates will need to register for counselling, verify documents and fill their preferences of colleges and courses.
The merit list, on the basis of which seat allotment to engineering colleges in Maharashtra is done, takes into consideration the MHT CET scores. Thus, aspirants need to go through their scorecards and keep an eye on the latest counselling details released by the CET Cell.
With the entrance and admission process in motion, students are keen on getting a good score and mapping out their next moves in the admission game.
