MHT CET Marks Vs Percentile: The Common Entrance Test Cell, Maharashtra, will release the MHT CET 2025 results in percentile scores. These percentiles will determine the rank list for MHT CET 2025, reflecting candidates' performance in the exam. The announcement of MHT CET 2025 results in percentiles sparks curiosity among students regarding their corresponding scores or ranks.

A score above 150 is expected to get a percentile of 99+, providing admissions to top colleges like COEP Technological University, VJTI Mumbai and SPIT Mumbai. While, candidates scoring in the range of 120-140 are expected to be in a percentile range of 97-98 and they aim for colleges such as Vidyalankar Institute of Technology and Deogiri Institute of Engineering and Management Studies. A score below 70 in the MHT CET exam is expected to be average and students can aim for state private colleges with this score.

Last year, the candidates scoring marks between 160-149 had achieved a rank below 1000, and a percentile between 100 - 99.99, while candidates in the score range between 145-136 corresponded to a rank below 5000 and a percentile between 98-99. In 2025, the marks vs rank is expected to be similar to the last year.
