The short answer

Buy our MHT-CET Long Term Batch first, then add one Target MCQ book afterwards if you want more practice questions. Triumph Physics Notes costs ₹850 and our batch costs ₹1,632. One pass through 6,800 MCQs needs 76 a day with 90 days left, so learn each chapter before you drill it.

Which should you choose?

Choose RG Lectures if

  • Some Physics chapters do not make sense yet, so you need the teaching of the MHTCET 2027 Long Term Batch before more questions
  • You want free practice alongside teaching, such as the RG Rankers League test series and the MHTCET Notes
  • You are in Class 11 with the exam in 2028 and want the MHTCET 2028 Class 11th Physics Batch
  • You have a short window left and need the MHTCET Physics "THE OG" Crash Course

Choose Target Publications if

  • You already understand every Physics chapter and want a bank of 6,800+ chapter-wise MCQs
  • You want a printed book of PYQs and a solved paper for drills

Introduction

Target Publications' Triumph Physics Notes answer one question well: have I seen this kind of multiple-choice question (MCQ) before? They do not answer the question that comes first, which is whether you understood the chapter.

That split decides how to spend money. The book lists more than 6,800 chapter-wise MCQs, and the exam has no negative marking, so volume practice makes sense. But 6,800 questions only help once each chapter makes sense to you, and a book cannot notice that you have stopped following a derivation.

We teach Physics for the MHT-CET (Maharashtra Common Entrance Test), so we have an interest in this comparison, and we say so. Below are the prices side by side, a pace calculation you can run with your own number of days left, and a table that tells you what to buy first.

Key takeaways

  • If you have not yet understood your Physics chapters, start with our MHTCET 2027 Long Term Batch, then add one Target MCQ book for practice.
  • Triumph Physics Notes is a question bank, so it works best after you have learnt the chapter.
  • One pass through 6,800 MCQs needs 76 questions a day if you have 90 days left. Work out your own number before you buy.
  • Our store lists the RG Rankers League test series and the MHTCET Notes as free.

Should you buy Target Publications books or an RG Lectures batch for MHT CET Physics?

We publish this page and we are one of the two options compared. Target Publications (Target Learning Ventures) is a book publisher. We are an online Physics teaching platform. The two are not like-for-like, which is why the comparison compares what each gives you, not who wins.

Why should you choose RG Lectures first for MHT CET Physics?

Choose our batch first when understanding is the gap, because four things on our side address that gap and a practice book does not.

  • Rahul Jewaani, known as RG Sir, teaches it. We started in May 2018 in Ulhasnagar, Maharashtra, and the batch is built around his Physics teaching.
  • Free practice sits alongside it. Our store lists the RG Rankers League test series and the MHTCET Notes as free.
  • There is a batch for Class 11 students. If you are in Class 11 and the exam is in 2028, we list the MHTCET 2028 Class 11th Physics Batch.
  • There is a crash course for a shorter timeline. We list MHTCET Physics "THE OG" Crash Course on our MHTCET store page.

How many Target MCQs can you actually finish before the exam?

You can finish one pass of the 6,800 MCQs in Triumph Physics Notes only if you solve 6,800 divided by your days left, every day. That is our calculation from the 6,800+ figure on Target's product page, and it assumes you do nothing else with those days.

Read it the other way: at 40 MCQs a day, one pass takes 170 days (6,800 ÷ 40). Physics is only one of three subjects in the PCM paper, so most students cannot give it all their practice time.

Our recommendation is to solve questions chapter by chapter, only after you have learnt that chapter. Target's page describes three levels of MCQs, from easy to difficult. Do the easiest level across every chapter you have finished first, and return to the harder levels later.

The exam rewards attempting everything. The State Common Entrance Test Cell (CET Cell) 2026 information brochure says the PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) paper has 150 questions in 180 minutes, which is an average of 72 seconds a question (10,800 seconds ÷ 150). Physics and Chemistry share the first 90 minutes, then Mathematics opens for the next 90. Check the brochure for your own exam year, because the pattern can change. Our page on MHT CET negative marking covers how to guess when there is no penalty.

Which batch do you need for your situation?

Match your situation to the first column below, and buy the item in the second before the item in the third.

Prices are the ones on each seller's own page as of 9 November 2026. Target's checkout price can differ from its listing, so confirm before you pay. For the general question of when free material is enough, read MHT CET Physics Coaching: When Free Resources Work vs. Paid Help, which we do not repeat here.

When you practise numericals from either source, our guide on how to solve physics numericals for HSC and MHT-CET gives a four-step routine. If you are still choosing a Class 11 route, see 11th science classes in Maharashtra.

Our verdict

Choose our batch first when understanding is the gap, because four things on our side address that gap and a practice book does not.

How we compared

We compared Target Publications' Triumph Physics Notes with RG Lectures' MHT-CET Physics batches, using each seller's own product or store page and the CET Cell's 2026 information brochure, as of 9 November 2026. The pace and exam-time figures are our own calculations from the listed 6,800+ MCQs and the brochure's 150 questions in 180 minutes. We did not compare Target's other subjects or books, or checkout prices.

Frequently asked

Triumph is enough only if you already understand every Physics chapter. It is a practice bank of 6,800+ MCQs, previous years' questions (PYQs) and a solved paper. If a chapter is unclear, more questions will not fix it. In that case, learn the chapter first, from our batch or from your teacher, then use Triumph for drills.
Three months is about 90 days, so one pass of 6,800 Physics MCQs needs about 76 a day (6,800 ÷ 90). Most students also have Chemistry and Mathematics to study, so that is rarely realistic. Solve the easiest level for each chapter you have finished, then use the leftover weeks for harder levels and past papers.
Add Triumph Physics Notes (₹850 as of 9 November 2026) after you start a batch, because it holds the chapter-wise MCQs, PYQs and a solved paper. Use it chapter by chapter once you have learnt each one, so the questions test what you understood and do not replace the learning.
Yes, and we suggest it. Learn a chapter in our batch, then solve that chapter's set from a Target book. Teaching first and questions second means each wrong answer points you to a gap you can fix, not a chapter you have not yet understood.
