CAT score calculator
Paste the link of your CAT response sheet. We read your answers and the answer key from the sheet, and show your score section by section, with your rank among 1 students who checked here.
How it works
- When the IIMs release the response sheets, sign in on iimcat.ac.in and open yours.
- Copy the page address (it starts with
https://cdn.digialm.com/) and paste it above. - We fetch the sheet, read your answer to every question and the answer key printed in it, and score it with the CAT marking scheme.
CAT marking scheme
| Question type | Correct | Wrong | Not answered |
|---|---|---|---|
| Multiple choice (MCQ) | +3 | −1 | 0 |
| Type in the answer (TITA) | +3 | 0 | 0 |
Your result shows your raw score. The official CAT score is normalised across slots, and the final answer key can change after objections, so treat this as an early estimate. If the key is corrected, we re-score every saved result.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my CAT response sheet link?
Sign in on iimcat.ac.in after the response sheets are released, open the response sheet, and copy the address from your browser. It starts with https://cdn.digialm.com/ and ends in .html. Paste that link here.
How is the CAT score calculated?
Each correct answer gets +3. A wrong multiple-choice answer costs 1 mark; a wrong TITA (type-in-the-answer) answer costs nothing. Unanswered questions score 0. We use the answer key printed in your own response sheet.
Is this my official CAT score?
No. This is your raw score from the provisional key. The IIMs normalise scores across slots and may change the key after objections, so your official scaled score and percentile can differ.
What do the ranks mean?
Ranks are by raw marks among everyone who checked their score here for the same CAT year, across all slots, with your rank within your own slot alongside. They are not ranks among all CAT candidates.
Do I need to sign in?
No, the calculator is free for everyone. Your result gets a private link, and this browser remembers it. Sign in if you want your results saved to your account and available on any device.
Do you store my response sheet?
We store your scores, your answers per question (so we can re-score if the key changes) and the link, encrypted. We do not store your name, and your application number is kept only as an unreadable code to avoid counting a sheet twice.
