On Question asked by student community
With a 63 percentile in MHT CET, getting admission to top pharmacy colleges in Pune may be difficult, as they usually have higher cutoffs. However, you may still have options in some colleges.
Pune District Education Association's College of Pharmacy had a cutoff of about 43.5 percentile in 2024, so your score could be enough for this college. Maeer's Maharashtra Institute of Pharmacy had a cutoff of around 19.3 percentile, which also makes it a possible option.
You should participate in the Centralized Admission Process (CAP) rounds conducted by the State CET Cell to check available seats. If you belong to any reserved category, it might improve your chances. Private colleges may also have lower cutoffs or different admission criteria.
Keep checking official announcements from the State CET Cell for the latest information on admissions and seat availability.

Getting 85 percent in MHT CET gives you a good chance for admission in YCCE, but it also depends on the cutoff of that year and the category you belong to. YCCE accepts students through MHT CET and JEE Main, so your exam is valid.
The only important point is that your Jamia Urdu board certificate must be recognized as equal to a regular 10th or 12th board by the state or central government. Some universities accept Jamia Urdu, but you must confirm directly with YCCE if they include it in their recognized list.
So, if your board is accepted and your score meets the cutoff for your category, you can get admission.

It is uncertain if you will gain admission to YCCE with an 85% MHT CET.you would need a 12th class equivalence certificate because jamia urdu board not recognized by state-level engineering admissions.
