Hello aspirant,

I am giving you the formula given by NTA to calculate your percentile -

Percentile P =. 100x Number of candidates appeared in the examination with raw marks equal to or less than the candidate/Total number of candidates appeared.

NTA score is normalised score also percentile, and CMAT score is given out of 400. NTA score is also your percentile.

I hope this helps,

Best of luck.

Hello,

Every year Common Management Aptitude Test (CMAT) is conducted to admit candidates in various participating B-Schools.

No,the scores and percentile calculation is different for CMAT.

Score Calculation :
  • Four marks for each question is awarded

  • For each wrong or incorrect answer, one mark will be deducted

  • For unanswered questions, no marks will be awarded or deducted

  • Total score is calculated by totalling the marks as per questions answered

Percentile Calculation :
Citing the example of Quantitative Ability section to calculate percentile:

Step 1: Calculate CMAT 2021 appearing candidates

Step 2: Mention the rank of the candidate in the QA section to all the candidates who will appear for CMAT 2021.

Step 3: Put the values in the formula given above

Suppose, 10000 candidates will give CMAT 2021 and a candidate will secure 5th rank, His/her CMAT percentile will be calculated as below:

P = 10000-5/10000*100

Hence his/her CMAT percentile 2021 will be 99.95.

Hi,

The score that NTA provides is the over all percentile. The percentile is a comparative score which is calculated by taking in consideration several factors like the total number of candidates, difficulty levels, etc. It is calculated using the given formula:

Percentile P = 100 x Number of candidates appeared in the examination with raw marks equal to or less than the candidate/Total number of candidates appeared

Along with your score it also gives an idea about your rank and the percentage of candidates who scored more than or less than you.

I hope this helped you.
