Yes, candidates can get rejected in the GD/PI round even after scoring 99.91 in MAH CET in colleges like JBIMS. The GD/PI round is an important part of the MBA selection process, and it is used to assess a candidates communication skills, leadership potential, and overall stability for the program. A high score in the MAH CET does not guarantee a seat in the college, and candidates need to perform well in the GD/PI round as well.  Here are some of the reasons why a candidate with a high MAH CET score can get rejected in the GD/PI round:

• Poor communication skills: The GD/PI round is a test of a candidates communication skills. Candidates need to be able to communicate effective in both written and verbal form. They should be able to express their ideas clearly and concisely, and they should be able to think on their feet and respond to questions intelligent.
• Lack of leadership potential: The GD/PI round is also a test of a candidate’s leadership potential. Candidates need to be able to demonstrate that they have the potential to lead and inspire others. They should be able to think strategically and come up with creative solutions to problems.
• Overall stability for the program: The GD/PI round is also used to assess a candidates overall stability for the MBA program. Candidates need to be able to demonstrate that they are interested in a career in management, and that they have the skills and qualities that are required for success in the program.

If you are planning to apply for an MBA program, it is important to prepare for the GD/PI round. You can do this by practicing your communication skills, developing your leadership skills, and learning about the MBA programme that you are interested in.

Getting admission to a college with a percentile score of 54.50 in MAH CET may be challenging, but it is still possible to get admission to some colleges. The admission process and cut-off scores vary from college to college and depend on several factors such as the number of seats available, the number of applicants, and the category you belong to. Therefore, it is important to research colleges that offer the course you are interested in and check their cut-off scores for the previous years. You can also consider applying to colleges that offer admission through management quota or NRI quota. However, the fees for these seats are usually higher than the regular seats. Overall, applying to as many colleges as possible can increase your chances of getting admission.

MAH CET score normalization process is undertaken to ensure that all candidates are judged on the same plane. This is done because MAH MBA CET is a multi-session exam and it may be possible that one session can be slighter easier or tougher than another. 

MAH CET score normalization ensures that no candidate has an advantage or disadvantage over another due to differences in difficulty level of their exam session. So, before the preparation of the MBA CET result and merit list, the Maharashtra CET normalizes the exam scores. Percentile scores are scores based on the relative performance of all candidates who appear for MAH CET. Basically, the marks obtained by every candidate are transformed into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session.

The marking scheme of MAH MBA CET is very straightforward. The total marks is 200 hundred for 200 questions. Which means, every question carries one mark. There is no negative marking. In case of incorrect attempt, candidates will be marked zero. If they skip a question, even then they will be marked zero. Total marks of a candidate will be calculated out 200 on the basis of their total number of correct attempt.

Section wise the marks allotment is as follows:

• Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension: 50 marks
• Logical Reasoning: 75 marks
• Abstract Reasoning: 25 marks
• Quantitative Aptitude: 50 marks

The MAH CET percentile is calculated out of normalized scores of every test take across all the sessions of the exam. The percentile is calculated on the basis of top scoring candidate’s marks against all other candidates.

MAH CET score is the total marks awarded to the candidate out of 200. It is calculated on the basis of every correct attempt across all sections of the exam. MAH CET percentile is calculated from the rank of the candidate as compared to rest of the candidates.

MBA CET percentile score is calculated from the highest raw score in each session of the MAH MBA CET. The the highest Raw Score in each session (of a candidate) will be 100 percentile indicating that 100 per cent of candidates scored equal to or lesser than the highest scorer for that session. The highest Raw Score is normalized to achieve the MAH CET percentile in the following way:

MAH MBA CET 2024 CAP or the counseling process began on July 12, 2024. The complete schedule of MAH CET CAP 2024 was announced by the Maharashtra State CET at its website on the same date. The process will go on till September 12, 2024 which will include registration form filling, round-wise seat allotment, uploading of documents, cut-off release, and admission confirmation. The MAH CET CAP is usually held a month after the exam result has been declared but for the last three years, it was delayed. In fact, the entire MAH CET session was delayed in the last three years as a result of which the counseling process was conducted as late as November and December. In 2023, the process was held in July and got over by the end of August.

In the MAH CET CAP, there are three categories in which the seat allotment is done: 1. Maharashtra State Candidature, 2. All India Candidature/Jammu and Kashmir Migrant Candidature Candidate and 3. NRI/OCI/PIO Foreign National, Children of Indian workers in the Gulf countries. Given below are the category wise MAH CET CAP eligibility criteria. Maharashtra State Candidature: The candidate should be an Indian National and must have passed -year Bachelor's Degree or equivalent with at least 50 per cent marks in aggregate from a recognised university (at least 45 per cent in case of candidates belonging to backward class categories and Persons with Disability belonging to Maharashtra State only). The candidate must have obtained more than zero score in MAH CET exam. All India Candidature/Jammu and Kashmir Migrant Candidature Candidate: The candidate should be an Indian National and must have passed 3-year Bachelor's Degree or equivalent with at least 50 per cent marks in aggregate from a recognised university.

It is tough to say that as there is no set pattern of sectional weightage in MAH CET anymore. Since the last two years, the number of questions for each section of the exam, varies for every slot. Meaning that, if in one slot there are 75 questions on LR and 25 AR, in the second slot there can be 60 questions on LR and 40 questions on AR. Similarly, there could be 50 questions on QA in one slot but in the next slot it could be 40. The total number of questions remain 200 in all the slots but the sectional weightage changes. So, one can really not prepare for the exam with the target of scoring maximum in a particular section. They need to prepare for all sections as any section can have maximum questions and the potential to score maximum.
