MHT CET 2024: 37 students score 100 percent

The Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell revealed the MHT-CET 2024 results, with 37 students scoring at the 100 percent. Parth Vaity, the son of an auto driver, is one of these great achievers. He has already got an excellent rank in the JEE Advanced and plans to attend IIT Bombay.

The 37 best scorers are divided into two groups: 20 in Physics-Chemistry-Mathematics (PCM) and 17 in Physics-Chemistry-Biology (PCB). Eleven of the top scorers are from the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. Last year, only 28 students achieved a 100 percent.

Exam details

The PCB examination was held from April 22 to April 30, and the PCM examination from May 2 to May 16.

- PCM Group 4,10,377 registered: 3,79,800
- PCB Group 3,14,675 registered:2,95,577

Toppers

Parth Vaity, one of the top performers, is the son of an auto driver and a domestic assistant, both of whom completed only Class 7. Parth, who lives in the Gaganpada slum in Mulund, has always excelled in mathematics and science. He has already passed the JEE Advanced with a decent rank and plans to study Computer Science Engineering at IIT Bombay. MHT CET was a backup plan for him.

Despite financial constraints, Parth was awarded a 90% scholarship at Allen Career Institute, which helped him prepare for the examinations. He claimed that comparing his marks to those of his classmates kept him motivated.

Sanmay Shah, a Dadar local and the son of a doctor couple, also achieved 100 percent. Sanmay scored 715/720 on the NEET and hopes to get into a prominent medical college. Sanmay, who had received AIR 3 in the ICSE exams a few years prior, had also considered MHT CET as a second alternative. He feels that consistency, enough sleep, decent eating, and meditation are essential to his success.

Vanshika Shah of Kandivali is another top scorer who wants to study engineering. She passed JEE Main but found her Advanced score unsatisfactory for a top IIT. Vanshika now intends to focus on gaining admission to a good engineering college using her MHT-CET score.
