If you appeared for the MHT CET PCM exam this year, you’re probably refreshing cetcell.mahacet.org every few minutes right now. According to several media reports, the MHT CET 2026 PCM first-attempt result is expected to be announced around June 12, though the CET Cell hasn’t issued an official confirmation yet. This guide walks you through everything you need: how to check your scorecard the moment it’s live, how percentile scores are calculated, what to do if you’re unhappy with your result, and how the Centralised Admission Process (CAP) timeline will likely unfold. Whether you’re a first-time test-taker or guiding a younger sibling through this process, this article gives you a clear, no-nonsense roadmap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The MHT CET 2026 PCM result for Session 1 is by June 12, according to several education news portals tracking the CET Cell’s pattern. The authority has already announced the MHT CET PCB first-attempt result on the official portal, and the PCM result is expected to follow closely behind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For context on timing: MHT CET results are usually declared 40-50 days after the exam, and last year the PCM result was announced on June 16, fifty days after the exam concluded. If the official date slips slightly, don’t panic \u2014 this is normal and has happened in previous years too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once the link goes live, here’s exactly what to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your scorecard will include your name, photograph, signature, parents’ names, roll number or application number, subject group, subject-wise percentile scores, and overall percentile. Take a screenshot and print at least two copies \u2014 you’ll need this during CAP document verification. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Practical tip:<\/strong> Save the PDF with a clear filename like “MHTCET_PCM_2026_RollNo.pdf” so you don’t lose track of it among dozens of other admission documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many students get confused between marks and percentile. Here’s the simple breakdown:<\/p>\n\n\n\n MHT CET Percentile Score = 100 \u00d7 (Number of candidates with normalised marks less than or equal to the candidate’s marks) \u00f7 Total number of candidates who appeared <\/p>\n\n\n\n In plain English: your percentile tells you what fraction of students you scored equal to or better than \u2014 not your raw marks out of 200. Because each session has different question papers and difficulty levels, normalization ensures fairness across sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Example:<\/strong> If your percentile is 92.5, it means you performed better than roughly 92.5% of all candidates who took that session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before you check counselling eligibility, make sure you tick these boxes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re applying for BTech, your final eligibility will also depend on your Class 12 board result, since the merit list combines class 12 marks and CET score in a 50:50 ratio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Bookmark this table \u2014 it’s the single most useful reference point during result season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This year brought a major structural change. For the first time, the Maharashtra CET Cell introduced a two-attempt provision, allowing candidates to take the CET twice. The best score or percentile from either attempt will be considered for the admission process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What this means practically:<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is genuinely good news for students who had an off day during Session 1 due to illness, anxiety, or scheduling clashes with board exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The MHT CET PCM Result 2026 marks a major checkpoint, but it’s not the finish line \u2014 it’s the start of the CAP counselling journey. With the new two-attempt system working in students’ favor, there’s less pressure riding on a single exam day. Stay calm, verify your scorecard carefully, and start preparing your documents and college preference list right away so you’re not scrambling when CAP registration opens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.
