How to Calculate CMAT Score?

CMAT Answer Key 2024 contains question-wise correct answers, options selected by the candidate, marks given and marks deducted. With this information, candidates can calculate their raw CMAT score. Check out the CMAT marking scheme below:

• 4 marks will be given for each correct answer.
• 1 mark will be deducted for each wrong answer.
• No marks are given/ deducted for unanswered questions.

Example;

• Suppose you attempt 15 out of 20 questions in the Language Comprehension section. Out of 15, 9 answers are correct and 6 are incorrect. So, your score in the Language Comprehension section will be (9x4)-6 = 30. So your score is 30 out of 80 in LC.

Calculate the raw score of all the sections of CMAT in the same manner and add them to arrive at the overall score.

For the convenience of students, Careers360 has devised CMAT percentile predictor 2024 and CMAT college predictor 2024 tools that can quickly estimate your percentile. Based on this CMAT percentile, you will know the colleges where you can apply.

How to Calculate CMAT Percentile?

Candidates will easily calculate their CMAT 2024 percentile by using the below-provided formulae.

Percentile (P) = 100 x the Number of candidates who appeared in the examination with a raw score equal to or less than the candidates divided by the total number of candidates who appeared in the CMAT exam.

Example;

• Suppose 10,000 candidates appeared in the CMAT 2024 entrance exam and a candidate gets Rank 1 then the CMAT percentile score will be 99.99.

Check the example for better insight.

• Percentile (P)= 10,000 -1 (rank)/ 10,000 x 100= 99.99
