what is mean of 97 percentile in aiims examination
Answer (1)
12th May, 2018
A percentile (or centile) is the value of a variable below which a certain percent of observations fall. So the 20th percentile is the value (or score) below which 20 percent of the observations may be found. The term percentile and the related term percentile rank are often used in descriptive statistics as well as in the reporting of scores from norm-referenced tests.
Your percentile score = { (No, of people who got less than you/ equal to you) / (no. of people appearing in the exam) } x 100
Thus, if in an exam, 10 people give the test and 9 people get either less than what you got or equal to what you got, your percentile score is:
{9/10} x 100 = 90 percentile.
Same goes for 97
