MT-CET 2013: Exam Pattern & Syllabus

The Government of Maharashtra is conducting Maharashtra Technical Common Entrance Test (MT-CET 2013) for admission to first year of four year full time degree courses in Engineering / Technology and Pharmacy in the state. The Director, Technical Education, Mumbai is the Competent Authority for conduction of MT-CET 2013.

The MT-CET 2013 examination is scheduled on Thursday, 16th May 2013.

Schedule & Test Design: The MT-CET 2013 will consist of three question papers. Each paper is of 100 marks.

Paper I: Physics & Chemistry (50 marks each)
Paper II: Biology (Botany & Zoology - 50 marks each)
Paper III: Mathematics (100 Marks)

There is no choice among the questions, i.e. all questions have to be answered. The candidate desirous of selection to Engineering/Technology degree courses should appear for Paper I and Paper III and the candidate desirous of selection to Pharmacy degree course should appear for Paper I & Paper-II and/or Paper-III. Those candidates appearing only for Paper I and Paper II will be provided with one single OMR answer sheet for both papers: those appearing only for Paper I and Paper III will be given separate OMR answer sheets with each question paper and those candidates appearing for all the three papers will be given one single OMR answer sheet for Paper I & Paper II and a separate OMR answer sheet for Paper III. At the end of paper/session student will handover the OMR Answer sheet and Question booklet to the invigilator.

The candidate will be required to mark the correct answer by blackening the corresponding circle against the serial number of the question in the answer sheet with black ink ballpoint pen only. Out of four circles provided for selection of an answer against a question, the candidate should fill up one circle only. Each correct answer will be given mark/(s). There shall be no negative marking for wrong answers.

Changing an answer is not allowed: The candidates must fully satisfy themselves about the accuracy of the answer before darkening the appropriate circle, as no change in the Answer once marked is allowed. The answer once marked is final; any change in the option once marked, done by any method, will amount to an invalid/incorrect response.

No marks will be allotted to candidates for scratching, overwriting, tick mark and multiple answers.
