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%
