Primary answer
CAT score refers to the actual marks obtained by a candidate after applying the marking scheme (+3 for correct answers and -1 for incorrect MCQs). CAT percentile indicates the relative performance of a candidate compared to others, showing the percentage of candidates who scored less than or equal to that candidate. Percentiles are calculated after score normalization across different exam slots.
