MAH CET

Hello,
Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do now except wait for another year. FYI, the deadline to fill the MAH-CET form was extended till February 2017.

Hi Apurva
PUMBA accepts MAT score. Last year the cutoff was around 97 percentile. The cutoff varies every year. Even if you are not from Maharashtra, you can still apply. Admission to PUMBA takes place through DTE. MAT score was acceptable untill last year. According to notification of dte only CAT, CET, CMAT scores will be considered for admission. I would also request you to go through dte website regularly if there are changes.
I hope you find this needful. Keep visiting DTE and PUMBA website regularly. I hope you find this needful.

The cut-off for outside Maharashtra students is quite high for the MS programme. You will need to score 99+ percentile to get admission in a good B-School.
