I attempted 75-80 questions in mat , and I think I can get 60correct answers out of 200, what would be my percentile
Hi Aspirant!
MAT exam has five sections:
- Mathematical Skills
- Intelligence & Critical Reasoning
- Data Analysis & Sufficiency
- Language Comprehension
- Indian and Global Environment (GK)
Each section has 40 questions and for every correct answer you get +1 mark and for every wrong answer 0.25 mark is duducted.
NOTE: GK section is not counted in the overall “Composite Score”. The composite score is the marks scored in the first four sections (GK is not a part of composite score). GK score is reported separately.
>> As you metioned that you attempted 75-80 questions, so I am assuming that this does not include questions from GK section. Thus I am assuming that you answered 75 Non-GK questions. Also, the score depends on accuracy rate as well (how many you attempted were right).
>> In first case, attempted: 75 questions, accuracy - 100%. So, the total marks will be 75 out of 160 (not including GK Part). A net score of 70 marks can take one to more than 95 percentile (overall), (as per the previous years marks vs percentile record).
>> In second case, let's assume you answered questions with 80% accuracy. It means that 60 were correct and remaining 15 were incorrect. Total marks = 60 + (15/4) = 63.75 marks, which will most probably make 85-90% overall (as per the records).
Note: It has been observed that a net score of more than 100 marks (out of 160 marks) will take one to more than 99.9 percentile.
>> So, let's wait for the actual result and do not consider the numbers above as the final result.
Thankyou!
