Which topic has the highest weightage in MHT CET Physics?

Kinetic theory and Motions have the highest weightage in MHT CET Physics. Fractions and force are also important topics. Along with this, scalar and vector quantities such as mass, speed, volume, work, time, power, energy, displacement, velocity, acceleration,force etc., must be covered for good scores.

Where should we start covering the Important Derived Units for MHT CET 2024?

Everything is covered in the textbooks for classes 11 and 12. Conversion of Units from One System to Another, Units of Physical Quantity, Atomic and Nuclear Physics, Pressure, Sound Wave, Light, Electricity, Simple Harmonic Motion, Graviton, and other topics are readily discovered in the major books.
 

What is the MHT CET's marking scheme and overall duration?

Except for Math, each question in the MHT CET is worth one mark (2 marks). The exam has a total time limit of 180 minutes. You will have three hours to answer 150 questions. 

 

Physics is not my strongest subject. What should I do to prepare for the MHT CET?

Revise your concepts thoroughly. Do not engage in rote memorization. Just attempt to figure out where each formula came from. RS Agarwal books would be really beneficial in opening your analytical mind. If you have time, try answering problems from that book and looking up Objective Physics.

What is the weightage for the MHT CET 2024 exam ?

As per the MHT CET syllabus 2024 and  the weightage of PCM and PCB prescribed by the Maharashtra CET Cell, 20% weightage is provided to the Class 11 topics and the remaining 80% weightage is allotted  to the Class 12 topics of the Maharashtra Board.
