Gateway to Top Engineering & Pharmacy Colleges in Maharashtra
MHT-CET (Maharashtra Common Entrance Test) is a state-level entrance exam for Engineering, Pharmacy & Agriculture courses across Maharashtra. Conducted by the CET Cell, it is one of the most popular entrance exams with lakhs of applicants each year.
At Yashwant Classes, we focus on concept clarity, speed-based practice, and exam-oriented strategy — ensuring every student performs their best in the competitive CET environment.
With proven results & systematic teaching, we are recognised as one of Pune’s leading institutes for MHT-CET coaching.
MHT-CET opens doors to top engineering and pharmacy colleges. A good score ensures admission to high-quality institutions with excellent academic reputation, modern infrastructure and strong placement support.
PCM is the primary route for students aiming at careers in Engineering, Technology, and Applied Sciences. The syllabus focuses on numerical ability, conceptual clarity, and analytical skills.
A strong preparation in Physics, Chemistry & Mathematics opens pathways to Computer Engineering, Mechanical, Civil, IT, Electrical, and emerging domains like AI/ML and Data Science.
The MHT-CET PCM syllabus is based on the Maharashtra State Board curriculum, with 20% weightage from Class 11 and 80% from Class 12. Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry are highly application-based, with an emphasis on speed, accuracy and conceptual understanding.
