In XAT 2021, candidates will be awarded 1 mark for each correct answer. For each wrong answer, 0.25 marks will be deducted and 0.10 marks will be deducted if more than eight questions are not attempted.
To calculate XAT percentile, follow these steps:
Calculate the total number of candidates (N) who appeared in XAT 2021
Assign a rank (r), to all candidates who appeared in XAT based on the measured score obtained in the Verbal and Logical Ability section.
Calculate percentile (P) using this formula: XAT Percentile (P) = {(N-r)/N} x100
Now, round out the percentile score up to two decimal points. For example, all percentile points that are greater than or equal to 89.995% are rounded to 90%.
Follow the same formula for calculating the overall XAT percentile and for other sections.
As per official information, XAT 2021 result will be declared after three weeks. When announced, results will be available on the official website -- https://xatonline.in/ and candidates will be able to check their individual results using login credentials.
XAT is conducted by the XLRI on behalf of Xavier Association of Management Institutes (XAMI) and scores of the entrance exam are being used by more than 160 institutes for admission.
