Students reported an error in the Mathematics section of the MHT CET 2026 exam held on 15 April 2026 (Shift 1). Authorities may review the issue and could award bonus marks or drop the question during evaluation.
The State Common Entrance Test Cell, Maharashtra, conducted the MHT CET 2026 PCM exam on 15 April 2026 in multiple shifts. Candidates who appeared in Shift 1 reported an issue in the Mathematics section of the paper. According to students, one question had identical answer options, leading to confusion during the exam.
MHT CET 2026 April 15 Shift 1 Maths Question Issue Explained
Several candidates stated that a Mathematics question in Shift 1 contained the same value across all four options. This created uncertainty while attempting the question in a time-bound environment. Due to this discrepancy, some candidates attempted the question by selecting any option, while others chose to leave it unanswered. The situation reportedly caused additional stress and time loss during the examination.
Possible Action by CET Cell on Reported Error
The CET Cell is expected to review such concerns while preparing the official answer key. If the error is verified, corrective measures may be taken for fair evaluation.
- The question may be dropped from evaluation
- Candidates may be awarded full or bonus marks
- Normalisation may be applied if required
The final decision will depend on the review conducted by subject experts and the examination authority.
