Biology For MHTCET

“Latur pattern” is a popular marketing gimick among book publishers. It was inspired by the original and genuine Latur pattern under which the chapters were given in the “question and answer” format akin to a guide or digest. Those answers were very detailed and comprehensive, much more than expected by the Board. Latur pattern quickly gained popularity as students from those regions topped the Board exams.

These days, most of the books which flaunt their “Latur pattern” tag are nothing much different than those who do not. There is not much difference between their content either. Infact, some of the publishers have gone ahead and misused the Latur pattern tag. Under the pretext of “detailed” content, they go overboard the MHT-CET syllabus. The student who is unaware of such tricks falls for the extra infromation and wastes his time working on it. Please do not fall prey to such marketing tricks and waste your MHT-CET attempt.

If you aspire being a topper at MHT-CET, reading from sanctioned textbooks(prescribed by the HSC board) is a must. There are 9 sanctioned textbooks alone for the subject of Biology. The detailed list of those 9 textbooks can be downloads from our Downloads section.

Students feel that reading from 9 sanctioned textbooks is a very tedious and time consuming task. Actually, it is not so. 90-95% content of all the 9 textbooks is common. Only about 5% of the content is unqiue to every textbooks. This 5% unique content can be found in the text of the chapter and the practice MCQ given at the end of every chapter. First of all, strenthen your basics(the 95% common content) from your preffered textbooks or coaching class notes. Then go for the remaining 5% content. Whenever you come across some unqiue or exclusive point, simply underline it with a pencil. This way it will be easy for you to revise from 9 textbooks just before the final MHT-CET exam. After reading the text of every chapter, try to solve the practice MCQs given at the end of the chapter. Most of these MCQs are easy, but some of them are very exclusive to that textbooks. Answer key to these MCQs are also provided in most textbooks. Pay close attention to such exclusive MCQs. It is very likely that some of the most difficult MCQs in the final MHT-CET biology paper may be directly picked up from these MCQs. This has already happened with physics and can happen with biology also. Take a chapter and read it once from all the sanctioned textbooks and only then go to the next chapter. This way, you will be thorough will atleast some chapter from all textbooks just in case you are unable to finish all the 20 chapters from all the 9 textbooks.
