The Common Admission Test （CAT） 2021 was a crucial examination for management aspirants in India, with Slot 1 being one of the key sessions. Understanding the relationship between CAT scores and percentiles is essential for candidates aiming for top business schools.
In the Indian context, the CAT exam follows a specific scoring pattern where raw scores are converted into percentiles based on the performance of all test-takers. For Slot 1 of CAT 2021, the score-to-percentile conversion varied across different sections - Quantitative Ability, Verbal Ability, and Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning.
Indian educational products like test preparation materials from local publishers, online coaching platforms, and mobile applications played a significant role in helping students understand these scoring patterns. Many Indian companies developed specialized tools to predict percentiles based on mock test scores.
The CAT 2021 results showed that a score of around 120-130 in Slot 1 typically corresponded to the 99th percentile, making it highly competitive. Indian students relied heavily on local educational products and resources to achieve their desired percentiles and secure admissions in prestigious management institutes across the country. |
