TIPS
The importance of MHT-CET in a student's life is overwhelming and at this time, it is natural for one to be anxious. However, do not let this anxiety lead to distress, but let it serve as a source of motivation to keep your performance high on the d-day. You need to be focussed and confident.

Here is what you need to do a day prior to the MHT-CET:
  • Stop studying. Just revise a few concepts and formulae, make mental maps of important strategies that you have used during test preparation. Do not study anything new.
  • Relax with friends or watch a movie on the day before the test.
  • Ensure that you get a good night's sleep on the eve of the test.
  • Be positive and confident.
  • Ensure that you read the test rules and regulations and are aware of what can be carried into the test venue.
  • Do not forget to carry your Admit Card, photo id proof and stationery.
  • Ensure that you reach the test venue ahead of time. Be there early, with plenty of time to relax and get used to your surroundings.
  • At the venue, do not discuss anything with friends. Avoid questions about what you have studied and what you haven't. Do not gossip about possible questions.
  • Take a deep breath, meditate for some time and think that you are going to ace the MHT-CET.
  • Keep a water bottle with you if the centre allows you to.
  • Ensure that you find your place in advance and are mentally prepared to give your best.

    During the exams:
  • Solve the test with 100% concentration and ensure that you read the questions and directions carefully.
  • Do not pay attention to what others are doing in the room. Ignore comments about the test.
  • Get into warrior mode: do not miss familiar questions, and ensure you do not waste time unnecessarily. Do not be complacent in your approach.
  • Be positive: There are enough questions in the test that can be attempted correctly. That will definitely fetch you a call. Do not make silly mistakes due to over-confidence.
  • Do not think negatively: What will happen if I don't do well? Just manage time and try answering the questions accurately.
  • Ensure that you have done justice to all the sections in the test. Make sure you have tackled all questions related to your strengths first.
  • Do not resort to copying or any unfair means during the test.
