Day 2 of the 2026 MAH MBA CET Exam was comparable to Day 1 of the MBA MHT CET exam. The paper had an easy to moderate level of difficulty but the lengthy nature of the paper made it a time-consuming paper particularly the Logical Reasoning section. Candidates who knew how to manage time could answer more questions.
The total number of questions that needed to be answered by the candidates within 150 minutes is 200 and there is no negative marking hence it was important to solve maximum questions without bothering about the wrong answers.
