Biology For MHTCET

By Prof. Rohan Shenoy Tuesday, March 17th, 2009, Category: MHT-CET study help

Do you know: About 70 - 73 questions asked in MHT-CET 2010 Biology paper were already covered in our 2010 test-series. Admissions for 2011 test-series have already started. Click here for full details.

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.
