Upload your CAT response sheet to calculate your section-wise raw score for VARC, DILR and QA.
This calculator reads your CAT response sheet, compares each response with the official answer key and applies the IIM marking scheme, so you can see your section-wise raw score for VARC, DILR and QA and your overall score before the results come out.

68 questions, 204 marks, 120 minutes with 40 minutes per section. TITA (type-in-the-answer) questions have no negative marking. The final CAT score is normalised across slots, so your raw score can differ from the scaled score.
Each correct answer earns 3 marks. A wrong MCQ answer costs 1 mark, while wrong TITA answers carry no penalty. Your raw score is the sum across VARC, DILR and QA.
CAT is held in multiple slots, so IIMs normalise raw scores to account for differences in difficulty. The calculator shows your raw score; the scaled score and percentile are published in the result.
No. Type-in-the-answer questions carry +3 for a correct answer and 0 for a wrong one.
