You need 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology together in Class 12, with English as a subject. You also need a MET score, and you must be 17 by 31 Dec of your admission year. MAHE lists no lower mark for any category. If your PCB marks are below 50%, you cannot apply for this course.
| Requirement | What you need |

You apply online, write MET and then join the online counselling. MAHE makes the merit list from your MET score and your Class 12 marks, half each. You pick the course in counselling, pay the first year fee and upload your papers. If you miss the fee date, you lose the seat.
| Step | What you do |
|---|---|
| 1. Apply online | Fill the MAHE form and pay the form fee |
| 2. Write MET | Book a slot and take the online test |
| 3. Merit list | MAHE ranks you on MET and Class 12 marks, half each |
| 4. Counselling | Choose the course and accept the seat online |
| 5. Pay and report | Pay the first year fee, send your papers and report for orientation |
The only published cutoff is 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology in Class 12. MAHE does not publish a closing rank for this course. Your merit rank gives 50% weight to MET and 50% to Class 12 marks. So strong board marks can lift a weaker MET score.
| Rule | Figure |
|---|---|
| Class 12 PCB minimum | 50% |
| Weight of MET score | 50% |
| Weight of Class 12 marks | 50% |
| Closing rank | Not published |
