Step 1: How to Navigate the CET Cell Website?

Start by going to the official CET Cell website. On the homepage, check the top menu bar for the login option. Make sure to find the section labeled “CET 2026.”

Log in to the portal using your application number and password or date of birth. After logging in, you will see your candidate dashboard. Look for the “Objection Tracker” tab in the bottom corner. Click this tab to view all the questions from your exam slot, your submitted answers, and the official correct answers.

Step 2: How to Navigate Printing and Right-Click Restrictions?

When you open the Objection Tracker, you might want to save the page as a PDF for your records. However, the CET Cell has added security features to stop you from saving it easily.

If you try to use the usual “Control + P” print command, the website will show a message saying you cannot print the page. Also, right-clicking is disabled, so you cannot use “Save As” or “Inspect” with your mouse.

These restrictions are meant to keep your data inside the portal, but there is an easy way to get your information for personal use. On a Windows laptop, press “Control + U” while on the Objection Tracker page. On a Mac, use “Command + Option + U”.

This will open the page’s source HTML code in a new tab. It may look like a lot of text and code, but it has all the important details about your exam performance. Keep in mind that only text data is shown; images will not appear in this document.

Step 3: How to Extract Data?

Once you have opened the source code (the HTML page), your goal is to capture the information in its entirety. It is vital that you copy the entire page. Do not attempt to filter the code yourself or skip sections, as even a small omission in the data might result in an incorrect final score calculation.

After selecting and copying the text, paste it into a Notepad file or a Word document and save it immediately. This raw data is what you will use to feed into an analytical tool to determine your performance.

Step 4: How to Use AI to Calculate MBA CET 2026 Score?

In previous years, students had to manually compare their responses against an answer key, a process prone to human error and exhaustion. For the MBA CET 2026, you can leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini to do the heavy lifting for you.

To get the most accurate results, you must provide the AI with a clear and specific prompt. According to the sources, your prompt should look something like this: 

“I have appeared for the Maharashtra MBA CET. Each question carries one mark, and there is no negative marking. The attached response sheet (or pasted text) contains the official answer key and my responses for each question. Please check my response against the official response and calculate my total and sectional scores. After the calculation, provide an Excel-style table of all questions, my answers, the official answers, and the respective sections for my reference”.

By using this method, the AI will deconstruct the HTML code you provided, identify the “Official Answer” tags and “User Response” tags, and provide a sectional breakdown of your marks almost instantly.

Step 5: How to Get Accurate MBA CET Score?

While AI is a powerful tool, it could also go wrong. A large amount of information can cause misinterpretation and calculation errors. So, how to counter this? Use two LLMs to cross-check your results. Which means, don’t only use ChatGPT. Use Claude, Gemini or Perplexity along with it. If all the platforms give you the same score, this means your calculation is correct. If there are any discrepancies, cross-check again. This will give you an accurate MBA CET 2026 score.

The release of the response sheet is important, but it does not need to be stressful. Using the “Control + U” source code method to bypass website restrictions and AI tools for automated scoring can save significant time. Ensure you copy data accurately and cross-verify results between different AI models.

Knowing your score early enables you to research cut-offs for top institutes such as JBIMS, Sydenham, and PUMBA with a clear understanding of your percentile. Best of luck with your results.
