What is NMAT Scaled Score & Percentile score?

Many candidates often confuse between NMAT scaled score and percentile score at the time of admission. To help them understand the difference between the two, read the definitions below.

Scaled scores: Once all the candidates have taken the test, their test form is equated on a common scale to remove and discrepancy in performance or scoring with regard to the overall difficulty level of each test form (NMAT question paper). The aim is to ensure that the difference in difficulty level of each exam paper does not affect the scores of the candidates’.

Final Percentile Score: The final NMAT result is in the form of percentile, which means each candidate’s scaled scores gets converted into percentile score, keeping in mind the number of test-takers in the year. For example, if a candidate's NMAT percentile score is 90, then that candidate's total NMAT score is better than 90 per cent of the candidates.

NMAT Score v/s Percentile

NMAT Score v/s Percentile 

Note: NMAT score V/s Percentile is not as important as in other top MBA entrance exams like CAT, XAT, etc. In NMAT, the weightage is more drifted towards scoring based cut-offs.

Commonly asked questions
Q:   How is the NMAT score and percentile calculated?
A: 

The scores of candidates will be equated and percentile scores are calculated after the completion of exam for declaring the final NMAT result. Check below, how the scaled and percentile scores are calculated.

Scaled scores: The scaled scores are prepared after normalising the marks obtained by the candidates. These scores are equated to account any differences in the overall difficulty level. This process is applied to check the scores are comparable across the different sets of question papers.

Final percentile: The final percentile is prepared after the candidates have appeared for NMAT by GMAC examination. The scorecard of NMAT sent to schools will be updated with the announcement of the result. For example, if a test taker is said to score 75 percentile, the test taker scored better than 75%ile of all the test takers who took the exam.

Q:   What do scaled and percentile scores refer to in NMAT exam?
A: 
NMAT scorecard is compiled of scaled and percentile scores. Here is the basic difference between scaled scores and percentile scores in NMAT exam- Scaled Scores - The test forms are equated to account for any difference in the overall difficulty and the raw test scores are normalised on a common scale to arrive at scaled scores. Percentile Score - The percentile rank or score is an indicator of score/rank of the candidate as compared to the score/rank of all the other test-takers. NMAT participating institute may accept any of the scores for admission based on NMAT exam.
Q:   What is the NMAT scaled scores?
A: 

NMAT exam is conducted three times within a specified test window. Candidates can choose the preferred exam date from the available test window. Since the questions attempted by different candidates may have different difficulty level, GMAC scales the scores of each attempt to equalise the performance of all the candidates. 

After the exam, the test forms are equated on a common scale to remove any kind of discrepancy in regards with the performance of candidate owing to different difficulty level of each NMAT question paper. All the students have then scored on an equated scale to avoid candidates benfitting from indifferent difficulty standards.
