Mayur Question by Mayur on Jun 29, 2025Hindi

Hello sir , Since the MHT CET results been out for over a week There are people on internet speaking about how they got very less percentile on decent marks Whilst I know the reason being normalisation, but various publications (newspaper) talk about how the cutoff of this year's admission will drop about 3%tile Could you clarify about this ...?

Ans: Mayur, In MHT CET 2025, the State CET Cell implemented a multi-shift normalization process converting raw marks into percentile scores for each session to offset varying difficulty levels and ensure fairness. Official results reveal 37 candidates achieved 100 percentile and nearly 39,000 scored between 90 and 100 percentiles, creating a crowded upper distribution and compressing percentile differences among aspirants. Principals of leading Mumbai colleges report that first-round cutoffs for flagship branches such as CSE, ECE, and Mechanical are expected to decline to the low-80 percentile range—approximately 80–83 percentile—compared to last year’s 85–88 percentile thresholds. This trend is reinforced by an unchanged seat matrix of over 1.04 lakh BTech seats and a surge of high-scoring candidates opting for national-level institutes, which has reduced competition within the state quota. Emerging patterns from expert analyses and newspaper reports indicate that normalized percentiles, higher topper counts, and shift-wise score adjustments have reshaped cutoff dynamics this year. Normalization’s percentile compression due to shift-wise adjustments, a spike in perfect and near-perfect percentiles, high scorers migrating to IIT/JEE channels reducing state-level competition, and a stable seat matrix have collectively driven admission cutoffs down by approximately three percentile points in MHT CET 2025, compared to previous year’s admission cycle performance. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
