    CAT Raw Score: CAT score vs percentile 2023 evaluates the performance of the candidates in the CAT exam. The IIMs conduct the CAT exam in three slots every year. Normalisation is the process done in case of conducting the exam in multiple slots. The normalised score is said to be the CAT raw score. The scaled CAT score is the summation of the marks obtained by the candidates in all three sections, Verbal Ability & Reading Comprehension (VARC), Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning (DILR), and Quantitative Aptitude (QA) after normalisation.

    CAT percentile 2023 is the percentage of candidates below a candidate in the merit list. A candidate having a CAT percentile of 95 means 95 per cent of the total candidates who attended the CAT exam have scored below him/her.
