Maharashtra Class 12 Board Marathi Exam 2026 Student Reviews
Candidates can check out the collected Maharashtra HSC Marathi Exam 2026 student reviews below:
- Debjani Saha - The paper was well-balanced. I found the paper moderate. However, the Upayojit Marathi (Applied Marathi) section was a little difficult for me. I took the most time to solve this section.
- Amit Sen - The paper was overall easy. There were no out-of-syllabus questions. The grammar section was the easiest. Anybody who prepared well can get 60 marks at least in the examination.
- Saumya Jha - Questions from Vibhag 1 and 2 were directly from the textbook. I was really stressed about Samas and Prayog , but the questions today were quite simple. I think I answered all the Grammar questions correctly.

What is the key to scoring well in Urdu and Pali?
*Urdu: Precision in script and calligraphy (Khush-khati) matters. Ensure your Tashreeh (Explanation of verses) includes the poet’s name and the central theme (Markazi Khayal) to secure full marks.
Pali: Focus on Translation and Grammar. Pali papers often feature direct translation from Pali to English/Marathi. Accuracy in word-to-word translation is the highest-yielding scoring area here.

How can I maximize my score in the French and Spanish papers today?
Focus on the Grammar and Vocabulary sections, as these are "objective" in nature and offer full marks for accuracy. For French, pay close attention to Tense Conjugations (Passé Composé vs. Imparfait). For Spanish, ensure correct Gender-Number Agreement. In the writing section (Essays/Emails), use simple, error-free sentences rather than complex structures that might lead to grammatical slips.
