MHT CET 2025: Expected Difficulty Analysis

The MHT CET 2025 exam is considered to be moderately difficult, like previous years. The exam will test students' understanding of their concepts in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (for PCM students), or Biology (for PCB students). The Mathematics section may be a little more difficult than the other sections, while the Physics section and Chemistry sections will be balanced (i.e., difficult and easy), and the questions will be either easy or moderate across all sections. Essentially, students will be tested for their conceptual clarity and problem solving ability. Overall, there should not be major changes to the exam's pattern or complexity.

MHT-CET 2025 Topper’s Strategy: Scoring 90 Percentile
