Dear Soni

Basically, percentile means if top scorer got 80/100. So that person gets 80%. But as per percentile he'll be the first and the top 20 percentile starts from this 80 so upto 64 they will take. This is the meaning of percentile.

if you get 90/100 marks and you topped in that. the top 20 percentile starts from 90 but not 100 and the 20 percentile ends with 72.
