Scaled Score vs Percentile in CAT 2016
Monday, January 9th, 2017
CAT 2016 results were declared today and a common question has been what sort of score would have lead to what percentile. For CAT 2015 we had compiled a list with the help of our students and some other CAT aspirants who sent us their scorecards. We are working on the same for this year as well. We will release all this information in public domain and hopefully it would help future CAT aspirants make a better judgement.
If you want to contribute to this list, please email your scorecard to [email protected].

Score Vs Percentile
Clearly, CAT 2016 was significantly tougher than CAT 2015. Another important point to note is that Verbal Aptitude and Reading Comprehension section was significantly easier than Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation whereas Quantitative Aptitude was moderate.
To get 90 percentile in CAT 2016, you need the following scores:
Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension: 54 marks (18 questions)
Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation: 28 marks (9 questions)
Quantitative Aptitude: 32 marks (11 questions)
Another interesting point to note was that the Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation section was so hard that if you did not attempt a single question – you would have still got 22 percentile and just doing 3 questions would have taken you above 50 percentile. Let that sink in!
Approximately 44000 students scored negative in the Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation section.
Approximately 1 Lakh students were not able to solve 3 out of 32 questions in 1 hour.
In my personal opinion, it is extremely unfair to have such disparity between sections. It is absolutely OK if all sections are tough. It is absolutely OK if all sections are easy but such sort of variation leads to favoring a particular type of candidate and dishearten another type. At the end of the day, the CAT exam is there to select the best students. I do not think that such sort of a paper does justice to that goal.
