How is CAT Percentile Calculated?
- IIM releases CAT Percentile and Score Calculation method to maintain transparency in the CAT result process.
- CAT raw scores are converted into scaled scores and then into CAT Percentile.
- As per CAT Exam Pattern, each question holds 3 marks. For each wrong answer, 1 mark is deducted. However, there is no negative marking for Non-MCQ questions.
Three important steps in calculating CAT percentile are:
- First of all, the section-wise scores are calculated, and after that CAT overall scores are calculated.
- In the second step, both section-wise and overall raw scores are normalized to calculate the scaled CAT scores.
- In the last step, these normalized scores are converted into CAT percentiles.
Calculation of CAT Score (Raw Scores)
- CAT Score = No. of Correct Answer * 3 - (No. of Incorrect Answers * 1)
Calculation of CAT Percentile
- Step 1: Take Total no. of candidates = N, who have appeared in both shifts
- Step 2: Assign rank = R, based on the scores obtained in a section. If two candidates have scored the same scores then the same ranks will be assigned.
- Step 3: Calculate the CAT Percentile P, for a candidate who has scores rank R using formula P= (N-r)/ N ) *100
- Step 4: Round off the CAT Percentile P, like 99.995 is rounded off to 100 but if the percentile is less than 99.995 it will be rounded off to 99.99
CAT 2022 Score vs Percentile
Based on the updated exam pattern and experience of test takers & experts, the tentative number of good attempts, expected scores, and expected percentile has been provided below:

What is CAT Score Normalization?
CAT scores are normalized to ensure fairness in the assessment procedure. The Normalization process adjusts for location and scale differences of score distributions across different forms. After normalization across different forms, the scores will be further normalized across different sections.
Authorities have not revealed the procedure for normalization. However, the previous year official brochure reveals that the process is adjusted for location and then scales the differences of score distribution across different forms. After this process, the scores obtained are again scaled for different sections. The score thus obtained is then converted to percentiles.
Parameters for CAT Score normalization
- Top 10 percentiles
- Lowest 10 percentiles
- Mean score
- Median score
- Highest score
- Lowest score
