GATE Percentile
4. GATE Percentile : Percentile is percentage of people behind you in GATE exam.
Percentile is calculated as shown below :
{(Total number of candidates appeared in your subject- candidate rank)/(Total number of candidates-1)} x 100
Suppose 5,00,000 candidates appeared in GATE exam.
Example 1
Your rank is 1
Percentile = ((5,00,000-1)/(5,00,000-1)) x 100 = 100
Example 2
Your rank is 100
Percentile = ((5,00,000-100)/(5,00,000-1)) x 100 = 99.95
Example 3
Your rank is 5,00,000
Percentile = ((5,00,000-5,00,000)/(5,00,000-1)) x 100 = 0
Candidate who wish to get direct admission into IISC/ IITs must try to score nearly 100 percentile.
