How to Calculate your MAT Score?
There are a few certain parameters based on which the calculation of MAT Score can be done. The final score includes marks scored by the candidates in MAT Exam, Group Discussion, Personal Interview, and Written Ability Test. A cumulative score of all the processes is considered the final score.
Following are the parameters based on which the final score of a candidate is calculated:
- There is an average group of students formed by the institute that acts as the basis for calculation. Your score is calculated by comparing it to the group of students. Besides, candidates' performance in written ability test and aptitude is evaluated in terms of score obtained by this group of students.
- Candidates must add their scores in each test area and calculate the percentile in all the different sections.
- This must be noted that score obtained by candidates in the Indian and Global Environment section is not considered during the calculation of final score, but It would be mentioned in the final score card.
