On Question asked by student community
Dear Student, with 52% in MHT CET and an OBC category, I can help you identify colleges where your admission chances may be realistic, but no college can be promised as a fixed-admission option. Your percentile, preferred branch, Maharashtra domicile status and preferred location will matter. Share your MHT CET
A confirmed admission cannot be guaranteed solely from a 52% MHT-CET score because admission depends on the course, category, Maharashtra State eligibility, CAP rounds, seat availability and the cutoff for that particular year.
For Nashik, Shirpur and Aurangabad/Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, you can consider colleges offering your preferred engineering branch and participate
Hello Student,
If you selected that you did not have a Maharashtra domicile certificate despite having one, and the grievance window has closed, your CAP options may be affected because domicile and category details are considered during Maharashtra B.Sc Nursing admissions. You should also check the CAP authority's document-verification process
Hello Student, the possible colleges depend heavily on your category, Maharashtra candidature type and CAP round. I would compare government and private colleges based on previous CAP cutoffs, fees, PCI approval, placements, faculty and location.
Hello, the MHT CET 2027 application form date has not been announced yet. The registration dates will be released by the Maharashtra State CET Cell on its official website at cetcell.mahacet.org.
