MHT CET 2026 PCM Examination:The MHT CET 2026 for PCM Group was, onApril 11, 2026. The exam will be conducted in CBT mode with MCQs, in which each correct answer is awarded 2 marks, with no negative marking. Thus, it is important to know the weightage of subject-wise as well as chapter-wise to gain maximum marks. Praking into consideration the previous years' proof,almost 80% of questions are asked to be from Class 12, while rest 20% comes from Class 11.When comparative weightage between these subjects is taken into account, Mathematics has the maximum followed by Physics and Chemistry, which means a well-balanced approach, along with strategic preparation, is required.

MHT CET 2026 Question Paper & Exam Analysis April 11 Shift 1

Overall Difficulty Level of Question PaperModerate
Physics Difficulty LevelModerate to Difficult
Maths Difficulty LevelModerate to Difficult
Chemistry Difficulty LevelEasy to Moderate
Was the Question Paper LengthyYes
  • As per a few candidates from Pune, overall, the question appeared to be moderate
  • Shailesh Jhadhav felt thatPhysics was more difficult than I imagined, particularly the EMI and Oscillations challenges. Chemistry was a relief, and overall, if you've practised properly, it should be manageable.
  • As per Aarav Deshmukh,Math was the most time-consuming. There were some tricky substitutes in the integration questions. However, if you have previously solved MHT CET PYQs, you will know the majority of the question patterns. Overall, this was a good paper.
