SSC/ HSC/ Equivalent/ Diploma:

  1. For computing percentage of marks obtained in SSC/10th/Equivalent examination and HSC/12th/Equivalent/Diploma examination, the total marks of all subjects that appear in the mark sheet/grade sheet should be considered for the overall percentage calculation, irrespective of the respective boards regulation(specified in CAT 2023 application as well).
  2. Maximum Marks (inclusive of all subjects) indicate the summation of maximum marks of all subjects (including electives, if any). For example, if there are five subjects with 100 marks assigned to each subject, the candidate should populate the `Maximum Marks (inclusive of all subjects)’ placeholder as 500. Total marks obtained (inclusive of all subjects) indicate the summation of actual marks obtained by the candidate in all subjects (including electives, if any). For example, if the candidate has obtained 450 marks by adding individual marks obtained in the five subjects, the candidate should populate the `Total marks obtained (inclusive of all subjects)’ placeholder as 450.
  3. The Aggregate Percentage should be entered as an accurate value, rounded off to 2 decimals,

Example A: If Maximum Marks = 600. Total Marks Obtained = 421 then Aggregate Percentage = 70.16666. This needs to be rounded off to 70.17.

Example B: If Maximum Marks = 600. Total Marks Obtained = 416 then Aggregate Percentage = 69.33333 This needs to be rounded off to 69.33.

  2. If any Board/Institute/University awards only letter grades or CGPA without providing an equivalent percentage of marks on the grade sheet, the candidate should obtain a certificate from the Board/Institute/University specifying the equivalent marks or the conversion procedure, and the conversion to percentage of marks would be based on this procedure as certified by the respective board/University/Institution.
