The MHT CET 2026 registration numbers reach the highest level seen in the last four years. The introduction of a two-attempt exam system encourages more students to apply, pushing the total number of applications beyond 11.4 lakh.
Officials state that the option to appear for the exam twice gives candidates more flexibility and confidence. Students can attempt the exam in two sessions and the best score is considered for admission. This change attracts a larger number of applicants from across Maharashtra and other states.
Education authorities note that the engineering and pharmacy entrance test continues to remain one of the most competitive exams in the state. With the revised exam format and increased awareness among students, the application count rises significantly compared to previous years.
Experts believe that the two-attempt system reduces exam pressure and allows candidates to improve their performance in the second attempt if needed. As a result, many students choose to register for both attempts to increase their chances of securing a higher score.
