Percentile is your performance relative to other candidates in the same exam.

By definition it is the ratio of “number of test takers that you beat other candidates(in terms of score)” to “ total number of test takers”.

Let me make it clearer with an example. Suppose 10000 people took an entrance exam. If you get a percentile of 90, it means that you beat 9000 ( 90 % of 10000) people who took the exam. Your actual rank in this exam would be 1000.

Hope this helps
