How is the CAT 2024 Percentile Calculated?

The CAT Percentile represents a candidate’s performance relative to other test-takers. The formula used for calculating the percentile is:

Percentile = [(N – R) / N] x 100

Where:

• N = Total number of candidates
• R = Rank of the candidate

Example Calculation

Let’s assume:

• Total candidates (N): 2,00,000
• Rank (R): 5,000

Percentile = [(2,00,000 – 5,000) / 2,00,000] x 100 = 97.5
