Dear Student,
With 66% in the MH BSc Nursing CET from the SC category, you have a strong chance of securing admission to a semi-government (aided/private) BSc Nursing college in Maharashtra.
Thank you!
Hello, your MHT CET 2025 score of 104 marks with a 9 percentile means that you scored higher than 9% of the candidates who appeared in the same shift as you, due to the normalisation process applied to MHT CET 2025 results. While this score may not be sufficient for admission to top-tier engineering colleges, you should explore your options during the MHT CET 2025 counselling process, which involves preference filling for colleges and courses.
If you think your score is incorrect, you can file a grievance through the CET Cell portal for rechecking. However, you can reach out to private colleges such as JSPM, DYP, and MIT-WPU for direct admission via management quota. If you're open to options, consider retaking the exam next year or applying for other engineering entrance exams, such as COMEDK, SRMJEEE, VITEEE, or AP EAMCET (if you are eligible).
Some of the engineering colleges in Pune include Jayawantrao Sawant College of Engineering and Zeal College of Engineering, while in Mumbai/Navi Mumbai, consider Viva Institute of Technology and Shivajirao S. Jondhale College. In the Nagpur region, JD College of Engineering & Management and GH Raisoni Institute are options, and for Aurangabad/Jalgaon, you can look at Deogiri Institute of Engineering and Marathwada Institute of Technology.
