MAH CET 2015: Give it a Shot!

There is no reason why you shouldn’t give the Maharashtra Common Entrance Test or MAH CET!  As for reasons to take the exam, we can give you plenty.

Gateway to Leading Business Schools

The primary reason for you to consider taking CET is the fact that a number of top rated business schools in Maharashtra offer admission to the candidates on the basis of MAH-CET scores. Some of the prominent names among the 400+ B schools are JBIMS Mumbai, SIMSREE, KJ Somaiya, N.L. Dalmia Institute of Management Studies and Research, SIES, Prin. L. N. Welingkar Institute of Management Development & Research, Mumbai, Dr. D.Y. Patil Institute of Management, Maharashtra, PUMBA, Singhad and list goes on. The exam proposes to cater to the high intake of around 45000 seats in various management courses (MBA/MMS/PGDBM/PGDM) across the state for the academic session 2015-17.  Therefore, you will have more options to choose from.

To Upgrade Your MBA Entrance Exam Scores

MAH CET is a good opportunity if you didn’t score well in any of the other popular MBA entrance exams like CAT, XAT, MAT, CMAT, etc. Since the state of Maharashtra boasts of some of the country’s top business schools, you can look forward to exploring your options on the basis of MAH CET scores. In fact, a few management institutions in Maharashtra that used to provide admission to students basis CMAT/MAT scores may no longer accept these scores and would prefer only MAH-CET scores. Therefore, it makes all the more sense that you take the Maharashtra CET along with other management entrance examinations.

MAH CET is Easier

MAH CET is a lot easier as compared to any other MBA entrance exam. In fact, preparing for CET would be a cakewalk once you’ve taken other management entrance tests. In order to excel in the exam, all you would need is good speed and an active mind. Since there is no negative marking scheme, you can attempt as many questions as possible. MAH CET doesn’t penalize for incorrect answers and candidates can, therefore, solve all the questions without the fear of losing marks. What matters the most during exam time is managing the speed to solve questions and how quickly you take decisions. Take as many mock tests as you can to know where you lack and work on those areas to improve your chances of success in the exam. (Refer to MAH CET Mock Tests on www.click4college.com)

Over 8000 Seats Open for Admission to Non Maharashtra Candidates

MAH CET is not only going to benefit candidates in Maharashtra, the exam opens B-School doors for Non Maharashtra candidates as well. The total number of seats on offer for admission in the management institutes of Maharashtra is around 45000. Out of that number, more than 8000 seats will be offered to students belonging to other states of the country. Therefore, candidates who’ve taken other nationally recognized MBA entrance exams like CAT, XAT, MAT, etc. can apply for admission in AICTE approved B schools in Maharashtra provided they meet the eligibility criteria set by those institutes. The best part about taking MAH CET along with other exam is that your best score will be taken into account.

Return on Investment (ROI) is High

‘Shikshan Shulka Samiti’ in Maharashtra decides the fee for MBA/MMS/PGDM programme offered by management institutes participating in MAH CET. The cost of pursuing MBA in Maharashtra can be as low as Rs.1 lac to Rs. 3 lacs as compared to the fee structure of private B schools in other parts of the country where a student may end up shelling out Rs.8 to 14 lacs. Apart from this, placements offered by management institutes in Maharashtra are good and students can expect to earn salary packages as high as the income earned by students from other prestigious B Schools of the country. The Return on Investment (ROI), if you sit down to calculate, is way better in comparison with most of the management institutes belonging to the same category.
