The normalized score of a candidate in CAT is called the scaled score, which is obtained by adjusting the raw score for the variation in the difficulty level of different slots and sessions of the exam. The raw score in CAT is the sum of marks obtained by a candidate out of 198 based on the number of right and wrong answers.
