Hi,

To calculate CAT percentile, the CAT score is required and then the percentile is calculated depending on the number of students who gave the exam and also the scores attained by them. The XAT percentile is irrelevant in calculating cat percentile. Also the 10th, 12th and graduation marks only matter during evaluation of personal interview and also shortlisting candidates for PI and then for final admission.

I hope this helps.

All the best.

Dear Aspirant,

The cutoff for general category admission in IRMA remains the highest with 85 percentile in both CAT and XAT.  IRMASAT is conducted for admission to PGDRM program. The cut off scores of IRMASAT and CAT/XAT are released separately.
