MHT CET Previous Year Question Papers with Solutions (2026–2022) | PCM & PCB

Quick answer

For MHT CET 2027, solve previous year question papers from 2022 to 2026 for your group (PCM or PCB), starting with 2026 and 2025. Practise them on a computer, in timed conditions, and check step-by-step solutions after every paper. The Competishun MHT CET 2027 Test Series includes 30 previous year papers, including the 2026 shift papers, on the real exam interface.

MHT CET is a speed test. You get 150 questions in PCM (200 in PCB) in three hours, with no negative marking. The fastest way to get comfortable with that pace is to solve real previous year papers, again and again, until the question types feel familiar.

This guide covers the MHT CET previous year question papers from 2022 to 2026 for PCM and PCB, where to practise them with solutions, how official and memory-based papers differ, and a simple plan to use them before MHT CET 2027.

Why Previous Papers Matter So Much in MHT CET

  • Speed training: PCM needs roughly a minute per Physics and Chemistry question; only real papers build that rhythm
  • Pattern familiarity: the CET Cell's question style, difficulty and most-tested chapters stay fairly consistent
  • No negative marking: papers teach you to attempt every question and make smart guesses when stuck
  • Section timing: Physics and Chemistry share 90 minutes and Maths or Biology gets 90 minutes; practising this split is essential
  • Percentile sense: scoring papers tells you roughly where you stand against the percentile ranges

Official vs Memory-Based Papers

How to Solve MHT CET Previous Papers

The 4-Step Previous Paper Routine

1

Attempt

Full paper, 3 hours, on a computer

2

Score

Check marks and estimate percentile

3

Analyse

Wrong, skipped and slow questions

4

Fix

Revise those chapters, then re-attempt

  • Respect the section split: 90 minutes for Physics and Chemistry together, then 90 minutes for Maths or Biology
  • Attempt every question: with no negative marking, never leave a question blank
  • Track time per question: note where you spent too long and practise those chapters
  • Read the solution even when correct: a shorter method saves minutes in a speed test

When to Use Them Before MHT CET 2027

You can practise MHT CET previous year papers in the Competishun MHT CET 2027 Test Series, which includes 30 previous year papers, including the 2026 shift papers, on the real CBT interface with step-by-step solutions. The State CET Cell also shows candidates their question paper and answer key during the objection window after each exam.
How many years of MHT CET previous papers should I solve?
Solving papers from 2022 to 2026 covers the current pattern well. Start with 2026 and 2025 because they are the most recent, then go back to 2024, 2023 and 2022 for extra practice.
Are MHT CET question papers available online officially?
After the exam, the State CET Cell makes the question paper and provisional answer key available to candidates through their login for objections. Many papers shared publicly are memory-based reconstructions, so it is best to practise from a verified source.
Do MHT CET questions repeat from previous years?
Exact questions rarely repeat, but concepts, question types and the most tested chapters repeat often. Solving previous papers shows you these patterns and the level of difficulty to expect.
Should I solve previous papers on paper or on a computer?
Practise on a computer whenever you can, because MHT CET is a computer-based test. Getting used to the screen, the question palette and the section timer is part of the preparation.
When should I start solving MHT CET previous year papers?
Start chapter-wise practice as soon as you finish a chapter, and attempt full timed papers once most of the syllabus is done. For MHT CET 2027, a good plan is chapter-wise practice before the boards and full papers right after the boards.
