I am student will be appearing for mht cet PCM examination in 2026, The name on my 10th marksheet and on my 12th hall ticket is different. The name on my 10th marksheet is "Suryansh" and on my hall ticket and aadhar card is "Shuryansh" will it pose any problem in getting admission in college if it will than what should I do now because the board examination will start from 10th of february and The name on the Cet form is same as the name on my board hall ticket. Please help, talked to many people but no one was helpful. What should be the necessary steps I should follow to get admission in college.

Ans: Here is a point-by-point reply to your question-

(1) Application form (MHT-CET 2026): Enter and upload your combined PCM marks. That means the Physics and Chemistry marks from your PCB Feb 2025 HSC marksheet and the Mathematics marks from your Maths Isolated June 2025 marksheet. Do not upload only PCB or only Maths separately; both marksheets are required to show that you meet the required criterion.

(2) CAP application (after CET exam): When asked for the HSC seat number, enter the main HSC seat number from your PCB Feb 2025 marksheet. The Maths isolated marks are linked as an improvement/isolated subject, and during CAP you will upload both marksheets. Do not enter CET marks manually for PCM. The CET score is fetched automatically, and HSC PCM eligibility is verified using your uploaded documents.

(3) Admission with two marksheets: Yes, you can get engineering admission with PCB + Maths isolated marksheets. This is accepted in Maharashtra, and many students do it. As long as both marksheets are valid, you meet PCM eligibility, and documents are uploaded correctly, admission is usually smooth. Colleges may verify both marksheets during admission, but this does not cause rejection if everything is in order.

However, it is highly recommended to download the brochure from the CET cell website to get the latest updates. For more clarification, suggest visiting any ARC or any engineering college near your home and getting it clarified to relax.

Good luck.

Ans: This can be dealt with an affidavit during counseling of admissions. But in longer run and to avoid any hassles in your career, get your name corrected in 10th marksheet.

Ans: Yes, the spelling mismatch (“Suryansh” vs “Shuryansh”) can cause issues during MHT-CET counselling and college admission verification. Immediately apply for a name correction in your 10th board records through your respective board (e.g., Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education, if applicable), obtain a Gazette name correction affidavit, and keep a notarized affidavit and supporting documents (Aadhaar, CET form, 12th hall ticket) ready for document verification.
Last Word: This is called a blunder. In future, avoid all such mismatches in names and other details on the original documents. Verify every time and take care to avoid any issues in the future.

Good luck.
