What Exactly is CAT 2025 Percentile Predictor?

The CAT 2025 Percentile Predictor is an advanced analytical tool that evaluates candidate responses and estimates the expected percentile among all test takers. It analyzes attempts, accuracy, score distribution, difficulty level, scaling and normalization rules to predict overall and sectional percentiles effectively.

Even before the official result announcement, this tool provides clarity on:

  • Expected Score – Section-wise and Overall
  • Scaled & Normalized Scores
  • Overall Estimated Percentile
  • Sectional Percentile (VARC, DILR, QA)
  • Chances of Calls from IIMs & Top MBA Colleges

Tools like TIME, IMS, CL, MBAUniverse, Cracku etc. are widely used by aspirants β€” however, CareerChoice360 offers a smoother interface, faster response calculation, and deeper detailed reports making it more helpful for serious CAT candidates.

How Percentile is Calculated by IIMs?

CAT results are not based only on raw marks. Scores are first normalized and scaled across shifts to ensure fairness. Final percentile is determined by your ranking among total candidates.

Official Simplified Percentile Formula:

Percentile = ((Total Candidates – Your Rank) / Total Candidates) Γ— 100

The score is rounded to two decimal places and percentile is calculated:

  • Section-wise – VARC, DILR, QA
  • Overall Combined Score

Two students with the same raw score may still get different percentiles depending on normalization and exam difficulty variations between slots.
