The MHT-CET 2025 PCM group online exam ended on Sunday, and some candidates complained that more than a dozen of the questions contained wrong answers. For admission to engineering colleges for the 2025–2026 academic year, the State Common Entrance Test Cell of the Maharashtra government conducted the exam. Some students complained that the answers to 12-15 math questions from the first shift on the last day were either wrong or irrelevant. According to reports, the students brought up the matter with the exam center officials.
Candidates are advised to follow the structured grievance redressal procedure in the event when issues arise during the exam. The MHT-CET 2025 Information Brochure states that applicants are required to notify the invigilator in the examination block if they experience any issues, such as erroneous questions or administrative faults. The venue officer, who is appointed by the State CET Cell commissioner and working from 7.30am till the exam is over, is informed of the problem by the invigilator.
The venue officer immediately reviews the complaint and makes a decision. Candidates must use the official website, www.mahacet.org, to file objections particularly related to question paper problems within the timeframe specified in the booklet. Submissions made beyond the allotted time frame will not be taken into account.
The three multiple-choice question (MCQ) papers in the MHT-CET 2025 PCM exam, which is designed for evaluating aptitude in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, are worth 100 marks each. The PCM group lasts 180 minutes in total, with 90 minutes dedicated to physics and chemistry and another 90 minutes to mathematics. With a difficulty level similar to JEE (Main) for PCM topics and no negative marking, the syllabus, which was developed by the State Council of Educational Research and Training, Maharashtra, gives 20% of the weight to the Std XI curriculum and 80% to the Std XII curriculum.
