MHT CET 2023
Directorate of Technical Education, Maharashtra has proposed key changes in the upcoming MHT CET 2023 exams. Till now nothing has been declared officially by DTE,Maharashtra, but since the information comes straight from Mr. Uday Samant, Higher Technical Minister of Maharashtra, the changes are very unlikely to be refuted. The changes proposed from MHT CET 2023 onwards are:
50% weightage to class XII marks
From MHT CET 2023 onwards class XII marks would also be considered for admissions. Possibly, a new combined merit list – one allocating 50% weightage to CET scores, and 50% to class XII scores – would be incorporated. Earlier, only CET scores were considered for the merit list, and hence admissions.
According to Mr Uday, this would provide the much needed incentives for the students to seriously prepare for their class XII boards, and would ‘fairly’ award students who indeed scored well in their class XII.
Qualifying Cut Off for MHT CET
Another major change prosed is the inclusion of Qualifying Cutoffs from MHT CET 2023 onwards, meaning that now a candidate would need to ‘qualify’ (by scoring minimum marks) the exam in order to be eligible for the counselling process.
The minister sites that the change would ensure that only those candidates who are ‘fit’ for technical education get admissions, as earlier many candidates were able to gain admissions into Private Colleges by scoring as low as 1 mark.
Conduct Multiple Times a Year
As proposed, MHT CET would also be conducted multiple times a year, like JEE Main examinations, to give candidates a second chance for scoring better.
As no official notification has been out by DTE, Maharashtra, several details are yet to be filled in. Hopefully, the answers to questions like – will the overall XII percentage be considered or just the one obtained in PCM or PCB subjects? How many times would MHT CET be conducted?, etc. – would be answered soon after the meeting of board officials with Mr. Ajit Pawar, the Finance Minister of Maharashtra.
