Review exams from previous years. This gives you the format and the kinds of questions you can expect to see on the exam and may help you identify weak areas that require more study time. Visit the Internet and type "MHT CET practice tests" to find a number of sites that provide these exams. The health services exams require you to have a thorough knowledge of physics, chemistry, biology, botany and zoology. The engineering CET focuses on physics, chemistry and math. The MBA CET tests your reasoning, quantitative aptitude and English language comprehension, as well as your group discussion skills and composure during a personal interview.
Review your secondary school coursework in the relevant subject areas to ensure your knowledge and aptitude. Make a weekly study plan and give more time to the weaker areas you have identified from the practice exams. Take a timed practice test once every two weeks to help you determine how well you are pacing your answers.
Practice group discussion sessions with other students. The group discussion portion of the CET MBA exam is conducted in front of a panel, which typically gives you a choice of two topics and requires you and a small group of other exam takers to formulate an intelligent discussion that analyzes all aspects of the topic. Practice for the group discussion by watching news programs, reading local and international papers such as the "International Herald Tribune" and "New York Times," and shore up your knowledge of current affairs. Because you are in a group, you must know how to skillfully interrupt other speakers and how to make points that will score with the panel members.
Practice for the personal interview portion of the CET by reviewing your personal goals to formulate an answer for why you want to pursue an MBA. Make a list of your career aspirations and your strongest personal qualities that will help you succeed. List your weaknesses and ways in which you can make improvements. For example, if you lack assertiveness, describe the ways in which the challenge of earning an MBA will instill confidence.
