CAT 2025: Know difference between scores and percentiles
The CAT remains a high-stakes gateway to the IIMs, drawing over two lakh aspirants each year. While the raw CAT score reflects a candidate’s actual marks, the percentile shows their standing among all test-takers and is the key metric for shortlisting. Understanding this score–percentile gap is essential as candidates prepare for the November exam cycle.
