Impact on Scores and Next Steps:
- The revised answer key will be used to recalculate the final scores for all MHT-CET 2024 candidates.
- This might lead to score changes for some candidates, potentially impacting their percentile ranks.
- The most anticipated outcome – the MHT-CET 2024 scorecards – will be available on the candidate login portal by June 12th, 2024. These scorecards will reflect the percentile scores for both the PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) and PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) groups.
- It's important to note that this is the final resolution regarding the objections raised. The SCET Cell won't entertain any further communication on this matter.
What Can You Do as a Candidate?
- Make sure to log in to your MHT-CET 2024 account on or before June 12th to access your scorecard. Download and save a copy for your records.
- Analyse your scorecard carefully. Pay close attention to your percentile rank, which will be crucial during the counselling process for college admissions.
- Start researching colleges and courses that align with your score and academic interests. Familiarise yourself with the upcoming counselling schedule and understand the document requirements and preference-filling procedures.
This announcement by the SCET Cell brings some closure to the objection resolution process. While some candidates might see a shift in their scores, it paves the way for a more accurate representation of their performance in the MHT-CET 2024 exam. Remember, the journey doesn't end here. Utilise the remaining time to strategise for the counselling process and secure your seat in your desired college!
