MHT CET 2025 Difficulty Level

MHT CET 2025, organized by the State CET Cell, Maharashtra, is likely to be patterned much the same as in previous years.The Exam is expected to be moderate in terms of difficulty, with Physics and Maths being more challenging than Chemistry.

As the exam is held online with no negative marking, the exam tends to test speed and accuracy rather than in-depth conceptual Knowledge.

MHT CET 2025 Subject-wise Expected Difficulty Level

Subject Expected Difficulty Level Nature of Questions
Physics Moderate to Difficult Conceptual and Numerical based questions (e.g., Current Electricity, Modern Physics)
Chemistry Easy to Moderate Fact-based and Some Organic Mechanism questions (e.g., Thermodynamics, Coordination Compounds)
Mathematics Moderate to Difficult Lengthy and heavy Calculation based (e.g., Calculus, Vectors, Probability)
