CAT 2021 percentile calculation

To calculate CAT percentile score, follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Calculate the total number of candidates (N) who appeared for CAT

  • Step 2: Assign a rank (r), based on the CAT 2021 scaled scores obtained in the VARC section, to all students who appeared for the CAT entrance exam. In the case of two or more students obtaining identical scaled scores in the VARC section, assign identical ranks to all those students.

  • Step 3: Calculate the percentile score (P) of a candidate with rank (r) in the VARC section as:

    • P = [(N − r)/N] x 100

  • Step 4: Round off the calculated percentile score (P) of a student up to two decimal points
