CAT percentile is basically the rank of a candidate among all test takers. For CAT percentile calculation, every test taker's raw scores is calculated as per the marking scheme. Once the raw scores are determined, they are normalised to arrive at scaled CAT score. Then the CAT percentile is calculated from the scaled CAT score. 

Calculation of CAT percentile includes three steps. Check below the steps of CAT result calculation: 

1. Each candidate is given marks as per number of correct and incorrect attempts,
2. Total score calculated by adding +3 for every correct attempt and deducting -1 for every incorrect attempt.
3. Thereafter, these section-wise and overall scores (raw scores) are normalised to arrive at a scaled CAT score.
4. The normalised scores are converted into percentiles which are reported in the CAT scorecards.

CAT Score Normalization Process

The CAT normalisation process is based on GATE scoring process and the calculations are based on statistic equations. CAT exam is conducted in three slots and the test form of every slot has unique set of questions. Thus, it is quite possible that one CAT exam slot can have tougher questions than another. To ensure that no candidate has any advantage or disadvantage over another due to difference in question paper sets, CAT authority follows a score normalisation process where the marks of every test taker are scaled to bring it on the same plane. Parameters taken into consideration during CAT normalisation process are:

• Highest score

• Lowest score

• Mean score

• Median score

• Top 10 percentiles

• Lowest 10 percentiles
