Sahil, first things first, it is not a guarantee that 150 marks get you 95 percentile because 95 percentile means you have scored better than 95 percent of the Candidates who appeared for CAT. And even if we go with 95 percentile, it roughly means you scored 90 percentile in each individual section. Now it is not just your CAT percentile that is considered for shortlisting you for WAT and PI. Yor scores in your 10th, 12th, Graduation are also considered. And the stream you have studied in your Graduation, 12th also matter.

After shortlisting the Candidates, the selected Candidates will have to go through WAT and PI rounds. Selection at this stage will strictly be based on the shortlisting of the candidates done separately for each Category ) on the basis of their ‘Final Composite Score. . The numbers selected in different reservation categories will be in proportions mandated by law.

Personal Interview Multiplication Factor (PIF) = 0.50

AWT Multiplication Factor (AWTF) = 0.10

CAT Score Multiplication Factor for Final Composite Score (CATF_FCS) = 0.25

Application Rating Multiplication Factor for Final Composite Score (ARF_FCS) = 0.15

Calculation of Composite Score: CS (Composite Score) = 0.3 (Normalized AR score) + 0.7 (Normalized overall score in CAT-2020) CS = (AR*0.3/30) + (Total CAT score*0.7/300)
