Hello,

Percentile is the percentage of candidates who scored marks less tha or equal than you. The percentile changes depending on the top score in the exam, number of candidates appeared, number of marks scored in each subject individually and normalised score. So it is difficult to predict whether the percentile range changes because of the above mentioned factors. The formula to calculate the overall percentile is

100 * (Number of candidates in exam with normalized marks ≤ the candidate)/Total number of candidates in the exam.
