CUET percentile is the performance of a candidate measured with respect to other candidates who took the exam in the same session and across various exam sessions.

Q:   How is CUET UG cut off calculated?
A:

The CUET UG cut off is determined by CUET participating universities seperately. Parameters on the basis of which CUET UG cut off is released are:

  • Total number of candidates that appeared for the CUET UG exam
  • The number of seats offered by the participating universities through CUET UG
  • The difficulty level of the CUET exam
  • Overall performance of the test takers (pass percentage/ score range, etc.)

CUET cut off is based on the percentile of the candidate. To calculate the CUET percentile following formula is applied:

100*Number of candidates appeared in the session with a raw score is equal to or less than a candidate/ total number of candidates appeared for CUET UG.

Q:   How can I access the CUET UG cut off list?

How to Calculate CUET percentile?

CUET percentile can be calculated with the help of CUET Raw Score and Total Marks. Raw Score is the score obtained by the candidates in the CUET UG exam and total marks is the sum of marks of all subjects from the three sections based on CUET UG Subject Combination for a specific course at a university. The formula to calculate the CUET percentile is:

CUET percentile = (CUET Raw Score/Total Marks)*100

For instance, a student's CUET Raw Score is 680, and he/she applied for B.A. (Hons) in Political Science at Delhi University. According to CUET DU Subject Mapping, "Any one Language from Section I & Any three CUET domain subjects from Section II" is required. As we know, the total marks per subject for Section I and Section II is 250. The total marks in this case would be 1000. Now, the CUET percentile of the student will be:

CUET percentile = (680/1000)*100 = 68%
