In XAT result or scorecard, you will find:

• Your name
• Exam date
• Your birthdate
• XAT ID
• Test details
• How long your XAT scorecard is valid
• Exam center venue
• Date when the XAT result was released
• Your scores in different sections (Quantitative Ability, Decision Making, and Verbal)
• Important notes for you

Note: Your XAT Result percentile is based on your scores in Quantitative Ability, Decision Making, and Verbal sections. Your scores in the General Knowledge section won’t be used to calculate your overall percentile, so they won’t affect your position on the XAT 2025 merit list.

How to Determine XAT 2025 Score?

The XAT score for each candidate is figured out using the raw score they get. The percentage or percentile for the General Knowledge (GK) section is calculated separately and is not added to the total percentage or percentile. The XAT 2025 score is calculated based on the following rules:

• Number of Questions: 100
• Marks for Every Correct Answer: +1
• Marks Deducted for Every Wrong Answer: -0.25
• Marks Deducted for Unattempted Questions: -0.10 for each question after the eighth unattempted question

No marks are taken off for wrong answers in the XAT GK section.
