🧠 MHT-CET Exam Strategy
Tried & tested strategy from Shashikant Sir — students who followed this scored 140+ in CET
📅 3-Month Study Plan
Month 1: Complete Class 12 chapters + practice MCQs
Month 2: Class 11 chapters + chapter-wise tests
Month 3: Previous years papers + full mock tests
Solve minimum 50 MCQs daily
Revise formula sheets every Sunday
⏰ On Exam Day Tips
Attempt Physics first (most scoring if prepared)
Skip difficult questions — come back later
No negative marking → attempt ALL questions
Mark questions to review (use rough work space)
Last 20 min: fill remaining guesses (B or C statistically better)
Keep calm — 200 Q in 180 min = 54 sec per question
⚛️ Physics Strategy
Memorise all standard formulas (derivation not needed in CET)
Draw quick diagram for optics/electrostatics questions
