Hello Anubhav,

Both. Your composite score is what reflects your marks. You score out of 160 and the composite score is scaled up to 800. So your composite score shows your merit.

The percentile depicts your rank. How many people stand below you with respect to the score you have achieved.

Both are important and would be considered during your selection in a good college.


Hope this helps. Thanks.

HI,


The most important component in your MAT score card is the MAT composite score apart from the percentile. In fact the composite score in MAT determines your merit for the best MBA/PGDM B-schools.

Around 300 MBA colleges will offer MBA admission 2019 on the basis of MAT  exam score cut offs.  These institutes are autonomous, University B-schools offering MBA degree, private PGDM colleges.

MAT Composite score cut offs in these MBA colleges accepting MAT scores vary from institute to institute. Apart from the overall MAT cut offs, many of the MAT accepting colleges also consider MAT sectional cut offs in shortlisting the candidates
