Frequently Asked Questions
1.How many MHTCET papers are available on this page?
This page covers 107 papers spanning 2007 to 2026, listed separately for each shift.
2.What's the difference between "Practise" and "Download"?
Practise opens the paper in an interactive online format where you can attempt questions and get instant results, while Download gives you a PDF version of the same paper to solve offline or print.
3.Are papers from different shifts different?
Yes. MHTCET is conducted in multiple shifts on an exam day, and each shift has a distinct question paper. Every shift paper is listed separately on this page.
4.Do these PYQs include papers from all MHTCET sessions?
Where MHTCET was held in more than one session in a year, papers from each session are included and listed under their own heading, so you get year-wise coverage rather than just one session.
5.How can I get better at solving MHT-CET questions?
MHT-CET is a competitive exam, so it rewards more than knowing the syllabus: you also need speed, accuracy and the judgement to pick which questions to attempt first. Board-exam preparation already covers a good part of the syllabus, so the real gap is usually in applying it under time pressure. The most reliable way to close that gap is to solve PYQs regularly, along with full-length mock tests, and to review every mistake afterwards until the same kind of question stops costing you marks.
6.What is the paper pattern of MHT-CET 2027?
MHT-CET is conducted by the State Common Entrance Test Cell, Government of Maharashtra. The pattern of the PCM group (for engineering and technology courses) of the latest edition is as follows:
- Mode: computer-based test, held in multiple shifts. Two attempts were offered in 2026 and the better score counts.
- Duration: 3 hours (180 minutes) - the first 90 minutes for Physics and Chemistry and the next 90 minutes for Mathematics.
- Subjects: Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.
- Questions: 150 multiple choice questions with four options and one correct answer - 50 each in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. All questions are compulsory.
- Marking scheme: Mathematics questions carry 2 marks and Physics and Chemistry questions carry 1 mark each. There is no negative marking.
- Maximum marks: 200.
- Languages: English, Marathi and Urdu.
7.Why should I solve previous year question papers?
Working through past papers helps in several ways:
- It shows you honestly where your preparation stands.
- It builds the habit of managing time across the paper.
- It sharpens accuracy, because you practise on the real question style.
- It reveals your strong and weak areas so you can plan revision.
- It points out which chapters and concepts carry the most weight.
- It makes the paper structure and difficulty level familiar before exam day.
- It exposes concepts and question types that keep coming back, so you can prioritise them.
8.How can MARKS help me prepare for MHT-CET 2027?
MARKS is built around practising with real exam questions. For MHT-CET 2027, you can work through previous year papers year by year or chapter by chapter, try questions in practice mode and get instant feedback, and read the solutions to understand the correct approach. Doing this regularly builds the speed and accuracy the exam needs.
9.Is it compulsory to attempt MHT-CET 2027 to get B.E./B.Tech admission in Maharashtra?
For Maharashtra State and minority candidates, yes: MHT-CET is mandatory for admission to B.E./B.Tech, through the CAP rounds. Candidates with all-India candidature can also use their JEE Main score instead. Check the official MHT-CET information brochure for the current rules and exemptions.
10.How are the marks distributed across sections in MHT-CET 2027?
MHT-CET (PCM) is of 200 marks in total. Mathematics carries 100 marks (50 questions of 2 marks each), Physics carries 50 marks and Chemistry carries 50 marks (50 questions of 1 mark each), so Mathematics has the highest weightage. The result is reported as a percentile, and there is no negative marking.
11.What is the best way to score well in MHT-CET 2027?
Start with the previous year papers. They show how the paper is structured and which topics are asked most often. MHT-CET rarely repeats a question word for word, but the same concepts and question patterns return, often with only the values or options changed. So use past papers to find the important chapters, then practise those chapter by chapter, and take timed papers to build speed. MARKS keeps papers organised year wise and chapter wise with solutions and practice mode, so you can do all of this in one place.
12.Why is MHT-CET regarded as a difficult exam?
Several things make the MHT-CET demanding: a large number of candidates competing for a limited number of seats, a wide syllabus, and the pressure of solving accurately within the time limit. A few mistakes can cost a lot of rank, and the paper can feel different from one year to the next. The best answer to that is to prepare every chapter properly and to practise past papers so the format and difficulty feel familiar.
13.Where can I find MHT-CET previous year question papers PDF for free?
You can go through MHT-CET previous year question papers for free on this page of MARKS, arranged paper by paper with solutions. Downloadable PDFs, subject wise and year wise, are being added.
14.Do MHT-CET previous year question papers come with solutions?
Yes. The MHT-CET papers on MARKS include worked solutions, so you can check your answer and see the reasoning behind it, not just the final option.
15.Can I practise MHT-CET previous year questions chapter wise?
Yes. MARKS groups the MHT-CET previous year questions by chapter as well, so you can drill one topic at a time and spend more effort on your weaker chapters.
16.Where can I find the last 5 years of MHT-CET papers?
The most recent MHT-CET papers (2022–2026) are on this page, each with solutions. They are the best guide to the current difficulty level, recent trends and the topics asked most often.
