Maharashtra MHT CET Result

Background:

This is about an boy who is about 17 yrs old, a science student studying in Std.12th. He will be appearing soon for his H.S.C. board exam and MHT-CET. So don’t you expect him to be prepared with atleast 65-75% of his studies ? The truth is that his current performance has been average but not to forget that he would excel at his school exams in early years. What happened to him now ? Is he not that intelligent ? Doesn’t he have good resources ?

Observations:

I observed the student, his activities, his surroundings, his friends circle etc. And most importantly, his aptitude. He had an excellent aptitude for what he wanted to be. He had access to all the resources one would need to excel: good professors, good notes, enough money to buy books, etc.!

The problem:

He had a lot distractions. He had a fully loaded mp3 player, a PC with latest games, etc! But they were not the root cause of his deteriorating. The process started when external force could no longer work. In his childhood days, his parents would constantly be behind him for studying. So, as a child, he had no options but to study. Even though it was forced, he studied and could write well in the exam, scored well. But as happens with everything, he got ‘used’ to it and then the response started to fade. He then needed greater amount of force. By this time, his parents (who were providing the external force) got fed up of constantly reminding him and let him on his own. Did you realize that the external powerful force just vanished ? It also took his academic brilliance away with it and left behind an academically average student. The students was in a ‘mature’ state of mind, which meant he had lot worries about his future. Just as some adults turn to alcohol when they are bugged with worries, this boy turned to MP3s and PC games, unknowingly. Deep in his mind, he wanted an ‘instant relief’ from all his worries, which MP3 and PC games provided. It progressed gradually to addiction. This is where short-sightedness started creeping in.

We all commit silly mistakes in our exams. This article focuses not on study-related mistakes, but on other “technical” mistakes.

1. While darkening circles, please be careful that you are darkening the appropriate circle. Sometimes, students darken the circles in the line above or below the appropriate circle.
2. Do not write anything on the question paper, except in the space provided for rough work. Some students are in the habit of ‘ticking’ the correct answer on the question paper or doing rough work just besides the question. Please be warned that this is not allowed as per rules of MHT-CET. If the supervisor notices it, you could be in trouble.
3. Pay close attention to bells. The supervisors are not teachers but staff of local Municipal Corporation. They are not so well-versed with the examination system. Sometimes, they might confuse one bell for another and this may lead to late distribution or early collections of question papers/answer sheet. If this happens, please bring it to the notice of examination centre authorities immediately. Is such cases, there is no use of doing a court representation because there is inadequate proof that such irregularity occurred.
4. For boys, please try to bear the look as in your photo on your MHT-CET admit card. An extra-cautious supervisor may else waste your valuable time in confirming your identity.

Internal motivation for success at MHT-CET


Who won’t like to be known as ‘brilliant’ ? But how many can achieve and actually preserve their brilliance over the years ? Do you know someone from your schooldays who was very bright in those days but now is nothing above an average student ? Well, there are many such students. The questions that immediately arises in my mind is how did this drastic and undesirable transformation occurred ?

Whatever be the reason on surface, the ultimate reason is that the force driving that brilliance is not internal but external. And the moment external driving force goes brilliance too goes. How sad, but true, many students have been dependent upon external forces for being successful in our studies. I have an interesting case study with me today.

Handling the MHT-CET OMR answer sheet correctly

In MHT-CET exam, the answers are to be marked on a special type of answer sheet called Optical Mark Reader (OMR) sheet. This answer sheet is evaluated by a OMR scanner machine. It is very important that you handle the OMR sheet very carefully because the scanner is very sensitive to errors and has very less tolerance. An almost replica of it is given in the last pages of MHT-CET brochures.

The MHT-CET OMR answer sheet is very thin — as thin as a newspaper sheet. So do not use much force and handle it gently. It can tear easily. While darkening circles to mark roll no., answer, or while writing other information such as MHT-CET question paper no, be careful not to exert much pressure with the pen. Else, the pen might poke through the OMR answer sheet and the sheet may be not be correctly evaluated by the OMR scanner.

While darkening the circle, first carefully darken the border of the circle and then shade the interior of the circle. If you simply scratch or graze without drawing an outline/border, it is very likely that the marking may leak out of the circle. Such marking may not be read by the OMR scanner. Also, be careful that the marking does not touch another circle.

Do not make any marking on the left and right border of the OMR answer sheet where small black rectangles are arranged in stacks. These markings are utilized by the OMR scanner to position its reading. Any unexpected marking may interfere with the scanning process and its very likely to produce incorrect evaluation.

Make all the markings with black ball point pen only. Do not use gel pens or fountain ink pens. Do not use a pointed pen. Do not use Cello gripper because its too sharp to poke through the OMR answer sheet. Instead go for blunt types. Do not carry leaking pens. If it leaks while marking answers, it may spill ink and may produce markings which will interfere with the OMR scanner. Carry more than one pen of the same brand. Many times, the tip of the pen becomes hot and thus the ink does not flow smoothly.
